False, it was 562 across the state. And as unfortunate that number is, it won't be that high forever.

How much in the Metro area of the state?
309 dead in NYC, plus lots of new cases:

We are good enough to beat the best teams, and bad enough to lose to the worst teams.

Another road trip that did not happen.
Had been planning to be at the Fire game today
to see the lads play at Soldiers Field.

Trump held a conference call today with every sports commissioner in the US (Goodell, Manfred, Silver, Bettman, Garber, Dana White, Vince McMahon, etc.)

Maybe some good news will come soon. I doubt he told them all 'no sports for 2020'.

I believe that the TrumpBA & TrumpHL playoffs will commence first, followed by TrumpLS. Then TrumpLB. TrumpFL will start on schedule.
NWSL & NLL are SOL.

It is not Trump's call to make.  It is up to the mayors and state governors where the teams play. State and local government have far more power over these sorts of things than the federal government.  Most state and local governments have not really been following Trump's lead, for good reason.

Trump believes the NFL will start on time.  Based on Trump's unblemished record of underestimating the impact of the virus and the timeline it will take for the crisis to end, this is a very good indication that the NFL will not start on time.

You sobered up!
NFL can work around this.
I attended the New Orleans Saints home opener at Giants Stadium in 2005.

well due to everyone being inside, I started watching S2 of Sunderland Til I Die on Netflix. I enjoyed the 1st season a lot, the whole time just feeling for the fanbase, dealing with all of the turmoil.

 

I noticed a graphic at the beginning of S2E1, they said avg EPL salary is $4m. avg Championship salary is ~$900k. League One avg salary is $125k. just thought it was interesting given what we know from the MLS Player Union releasing MLS salaries twice a yr. 


RIP Guillermo Romulo, Alexander Francis Orig, Celenio Eleazar, and my Mom, Resurreccion Eleazar.

 

RIP Cesar Castello, Mike Vallo, Glenn Stampiglia, Bob Paquette, and Warren Lee

Just finished S2 today. Even knowing exactly what happens... it's just brutal.

 

Hope no one ever makes a Metro documentary. (We do have those 3 Shields...)

No thanks to MLS. Thanks to supporters.
Otherwise, we would have nothing.

So thousands and thousands of traveling fans can congregate together in some other state.  I am sure all the local mayors and governors playing host will be thrilled with the idea.
