Well the Cards bats apparently have AIDS so this isn't a surprise.

You guys are seriously bitching about the players being outside on a ****ing golf course? |

This makes football less likely?

The more we see these team outbreaks the more likely it is baseball will give up and if that fails the odds of other sports happening becomes far less. Baseball being the key because they aren't doing the bubble, make all the jokes about face diapers and hoaxes, the more this happens the more likely we lose a year of Mahomes.

I don't know about less likely but they certainly need to be thinking about their plans. Their advantage is it's only one game a week, but teams are going to be dragging twice as many guys around the country and like MLB there's no bubble.

I really think the problem with baseball is all the travel.
Fights, buses, hotels... Franky the golf course is the least of my concerns. I thought I read that NFL teams were going to fly to and back from road games on the same day. Anyone know if that's true? |

You know how to make players take it seriously?
Your team forfeits the game if your team has a positive test. In most cases, this is a responsibility to the team issue. |

It's probably a good idea. The biggest issue is if a team on the east coast has to play in LA or Seattle, you're talking hours of flying then jumping off a plane and playing a game. Going to be tough. They might have to change the schedule around a bit to make that idea work.

Baseball teams can be in multiple cities every week. The Cubs and Reds sat around a club house for 8 hrs yesterday waiting out weather. Not smart. I really think baseball needed to do regional bubbles or something. I know that's really difficult, but all this travel is going to undermine MLB. |
