Corona Virus 1 - Sports 0
Well, that is it. sports are all but dead in the United States for a while. Most likely if they hadn't already, the remainder of the world will be following suit.
My world was shook yesterday when it was finally decided that the NCAA Basketball tournament would be cancelled all-together. This season had such awesome potential for there to be some epic match-ups. I was practically salivating at the thought of what upsets we would see and how many underdog teams would bust immeasurable brackets.
Don't get me wrong, I absolutely understand the need to protect the most vulnerable among us.
In one fell swoop, we saw the NBA, NHL, and MLB suspend all games for the foreseeable future. On top of that all college conference tournaments and the national NCAA tournaments for men's and women's basketball were also cancelled.
Universities are shutting down all over the country and we just found out last night that all public schools in the state of Michigan will be shut down for the next three weeks. It is a crazy time right now. Try to find something to keep you occupied until sports come back on. Treat each other with kindness and respect, and stay safe!
Oh man. Talk about the ultimate good news/bad news situation for you! 3 weeks off during the NCAA tournament and NO GAMES.
I am incredibly sorry for your loss. :)
No kidding! It sucks! Chances are I will still be heading in to work. Should be a pretty safe place with no one here.
