This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

I posted an op-ed about this on Rock's last week by Irish Warrior
Ultimately, the Owners, Commissioners, Presidents, Athletic Directors & Coaches will not have a say in where & when sports will come back & when. That is up to individual jurisdictions. MLB, the NBA & the NFL have been gung ho to get going, but Mayors & Governors have already said that the White Sox, Cubs, Giants & As won't be having games. & most of the plans I've read about, including Baseball & Basketball include no fan participation. I just don't see the possibility of having fans @ games in the Fall. The Budesliga started today & it was eerie, somewhat painful and completely bizarre to watch without fans. The experience just isn't the same. It's like watching 6 year olds & kind of made me wonder, wtf is the point???
