In Pa the Governor and local officials (Philly & suburbs) want Everything closed except supermarkets and. Pharmacies.The supermarkets might as well be closed, because if your not there when they get a delivery, you won’t get half of what you normally buy.

Anyway I see no way sports will be back in less than a month, and possible a lot longer than that. Confirmed cases going Up daily and that is going to continue. Universities are closed for the rest of the semester or longer. Schools have closed. For 2. Weeks, but that is just the beginning.Churches are closing..

Maybe we will have an NFL season and some form off NBA & NHL playoffs.

But in this area I fear we will miss a whole MLB season!

I know I am pessimistic, but your awful optimistic.

I spent the day watching the 2008 World Series 2 more games to go.

The 2011 WS Game 6 is a good way to kill almost 6 hours, is on Youtube complete with bathroom breaks, courtesy of MLB. Enjoy. Unless you are for some reason a Rangers fan.

Late yesterday PA announced they were closing all state owned liquor stores in the 5 counties round Philly, creating new rounds of panic buying and lines.All my Irish relatives (3/4 Irish) must be going crazy. First St Patrick’s Day and Now the Liquor stores!

As a Blues fan I can only offer my sympathy to you and yours...I am a Lundqvist fan...one of the best ever.

You can teach an old dog new tricks!

For the first time in 70+ years I attended Church via You Tube, and will do so for a least 2. More weeks.

Not a large pool...so over 50 million people isn't large?

Unfortunately I am a senior, with persistent Afib(currently under control)

Back to.game 4 2008

By the way, game 3 Phils score winning run, without ever getting the ball out of the infield::

HBP, 2 base throwing error, 2 int. Walks, then a 35 foot. Grounder that scored the run!

Nope, not when compared to the population. More people are going to be significantly adversely affected by what the panic has done than what the virus will do.

what do you consider the acceptable number of potential deaths before shutting down public gatherings becomes an option?
