- Appears to be about to go off with the Yankees and Rays. 9th inning of a 5-3 Yankees win, Chapman almost takes Brosseau's head off, 101 and Brosseau had to duck it. After a consult, the umps give warnings due to history, Rays manager Cash gets ejected. Brosseau K's to end the game and the benches clear again. Watch this space.
- The entire series this week between Oakland and Seattle has been postponed to later in the month due to the virus positive in Oakland.
- Tiz the Law, the Belmont winner, is the 3-5 favorite for Saturday's Kentucky Derby, but he and the next two favorites are the outside three horses in the 18-horse field.
- Also, Saturday, they're going to try the Tour de France for three weeks, with a massive bubble.
- Vietnam will not allow anyone to compete at the League of Legends World Championships in China this year, so the field is reduced in the Play-In Phase by the two Vietnam seeds who would've appeared. The Play-In Phase has also been altered in two ways: The Korean 3rd seed is now in the Main Event already (which should be the case anyway), and the 10 teams in the Play-In will be in two groups of five for the rest of the spots.
- Michael Jordan has taken an equity and "diversity" advisory stake in Draft Kings.
- International soccer megastar Neymar has reportedly tested positive for the virus and will miss some of the opening of the 2020-21 PSG season.
- Also testing positive is former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi.
- Twins legend Bert Blyleven will have his last broadcast with the Twins after 25 years in the booth. He still remains as a special assistant to the franchise.
- Tom Seaver passed away in the last few days. Lewy Body Dementia (the same disease which drove Robin Williams to suicide), augmented by the coronavirus. It was once said about Tom Seaver: "Tom Seaver is so good, blind people come to the park just to hear him pitch."
- Who said it? Reggie Jackson!
- A lot of people have been talking about the Milwaukee Bucks as THE team in the Eastern Conference. They are now down 0-2 to the Heat in the conference semis.
- Harvard will not open it's campus at all for the Fall term. It will be the first time in almost 400 years this has happened. The Ivy League cancelling Fall football means Harvard-Yale won't happen for the first time since World War II.
- Glover Teixiera will not be competing at UFC Fight Night in 10 days. He's positive for the coronavirus.
- I wonder how the "jusdaflu" crowd will take this one... Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, his wife, and his two daughters ALL have tested positive for the coronavirus. They've been working through it the last three weeks.
- Upon that announcement, Kevin Nash announced HIS family (wife and son as well) have also been battling the virus. His wife still has not gotten her sense of taste or smell back. Son has been asymptomatic.
The truth is not what actually happened. It's what you can ENFORCE happened. It's ALL enforcement.
