- Tampa Bay Rays playoff phemon Randy Arozarena is probably done with baseball and as a free man for the foreseeable. He has been arrested in Mexico for attempting to abduct his daughter from his ex-wife, beating his father-in-law in the process. If that isn't about the "2020" of sports stories I've heard in MONTHS...
- The Utah Jazz think they're going to be able to allow some fans at home games this season. Even though an actual State of Emergency was declared in the state just a week or two ago!!
- Tennessee's men's basketball team has pulled out of the Jimmy V Classic due to COVID concerns.
- Wisconsin can't catch a break on it's football season. The game with Minnesota is now off -- and this one because of virus problems in the Golden Gopher program! This represents the third game out of six cancelled. They have two left. This is a correction from a previous bullet-point to indicate the positives were in the Gopher program and not the previous problems in the Badger program.
- Southern Mississippi vs. Alabama-Birmingham? Gone as well, same reason.
- Appears to be another cancellation on the Big Ten horizon: Purdue's George Kaflatis is positive for the virus.
- Arkansas-Missouri is also off due to positives in the Arkansas program, so now Tennessee plays Missouri this week. The SEC is now looking at conference games as late as December 19th to try to get the fall season in.
- How many overnights, early in the virus, did baseball fans spend with the 2020 season of the KBO? Well, it has finally crowned it's champion. The NC Dinos are the champions, 4 games to 2, over the Doosan Bears. The KBO has a stepladder format for it's tournament... #4 vs. #5 best of 3. That winner vs. #3 best of 3. That winner vs. #2 best of 5. The regular season champion gets a bye all the way to the Best of 7 Korean Series championship match.
