Day 138

  • Universal Studios theme parks on both coasts have cancelled the annual Halloween Horror Nights month of night openings/horror-themed events in October.
  • The coronavirus positives have called off the Marlins season opener.  TWELVE players and two coaches have now tested positive.  Season's over people -- I know they may try to make it just the Marlins season, but I think it's now clear.  Turn out the lights...     
  • Anyone who now believes football can be held at ANY LEVEL this year (or at any point before a vaccine) is FUCKING FOOLING THEMSELVES.     
  • Now Trump's National Security Advisor has tested positive.  And the Piece of the Ultimate Shit still hasn't??    
  • Olbermann is doing a special report morning situation from home about the MLB coronavirus situation.  Philadelphia, who played Miami this weekend, is now almost forced to cancel their game (and probably more) against the Yankees tonight.  If I can get it to work once he finishes it, I'll post it here.

  • I'll react to it once I can get it to work!
  • Yankees-Phillies has been cancelled too.
  • Olbermann, in reposting the video, had this ominous note for all of us:  "We aren't the dominant life form on the planet right now." 
  • Now this might be another of those fake death Twitter rumors:  But people are watching for news on coronavirus victim Herman Cain, thinking he may have succumbed to the virus.  If he did, word is he caught it at a Trump rally earlier in the month! 
  • MLB owners:  12:30 PM Eastern scheduled call.  But this is probably going to be far different than they had planned! 
  • Max Kellerman has stated the nation should throw in the towel on the NFL:  No chance the season finishes.  I don't even think there's a chance the season STARTS!!!    
  • Kyrie Irving will pay opting-out WNBA players $1.5 million of his own salary in support of their decisions. 
  • To show what is probably going to be required for sports to go forward at all for the next two years:  The NHL conducted 4,256 tests of more than 800 players in the week of formal training camps July 18-25:  ZERO POSITIVES IN THE BUBBLE. 
  • And Rob Manfred is a fucking idiot.  Full speed ahead!!! 
  • And tonight's regular Olbermann, with more COVID MLB outbreak talk: 
  • Symptoms for White Sox manager Ricky Renteria.
  • Colorado's Tim Collins has said goodbye for the season after today's debacle.
  • Eric Sugarman, who is supposed to be the Infection Control Officer for the Vikings this year, has the virus himself.
  • And the Giants' DeAndre Baker and Seattle's Quinton Dunbar have both been placed on the Commissioner's List for provisional suspension for criminal investigations pending.   Each faces four counts of armed robbery, Baker additionally four counts of aggravated assault with a firearm.
