APRIL 8, 20206:22 PMThe folks at Major League Baseball suggest restarting the sport while sheltering at home plate.
The officials of the NBA are discussing the use of a rapid-response testing device that would eschew load management for blood management.
A college football coach from Oklahoma State named Mike Gundy has proclaimed that, dad-gummit, his team is getting back to business on … May 1?
“We’ve got to get these guys back in here,” Gundy told reporters in a teleconference this week. “From what I read, the healthy people can fight this … we all need to go back to work.”
Like most segments of the population, the sports world indeed needs to go back to work, and with every day, it’s understandable desperation is showing. Yet with every day, its solutions for a return sound sillier, and its false hope does more damage.
Ignore the leagues, mute the coaches, and listen to the science regarding COVID-19.
There is a realistic chance the sports world will be benched until 2021.
