Day 246

  • I've largely stopped doing Fine Blotters because the reduction in the fine amounts has turned them into even more of a joke than the refereeing has.
  • Buffalo's Josh Norman tests positive for the coronavirus.
  • The Heisman Trophy ceremony will be a virtual ceremony, and held in January, 2021.
  • Rick Pitino has called for a delay in college basketball for this season.  All non-conference matchups would be scrapped and the eventual national championship tournament would be held in May, 2021.  Good luck doing that, with all the problems we're having nationwide right now.  
  • Latest word from the NBA is POSSIBLY some pre-season games in mid-December.  At the rate this virus is now out of control, I don't think a 2020-21 season can even be held for the NBA, NHL, or anything college for the winter.  Your best bet is to work for a season for MLB and the like for next year (and no way I think it can be CLOSE to 162 games) and try to work from there with a vaccine. 
  • We just passed 250,000 national deaths this morning attributed to the coronavirus.
  • #16 Marshall University won their game today -- on the 50th anniversary of the plane crash which basically killed their entire football program.  The entire team of 75 died when their plane crashed coming home from a road game.
