Day 354

  • I think "Day 1" last year was actually the 12th or so...
  • I think this was the first day I really began to look at the coronavirus situation on the blog as a true TSHTF moment, with Inter Milan postponing a second match and France banning all public gatherings of over 5000.
  • NIT will be 16 teams, in a bubble in Texas.
  • Down to one major undefeated now, as Baylor lost this weekend after a long COVID layoff.
  • More trouble for Barca FC in Spain.  In Spain, unlike the US, libel and slander are criminal offenses.  They are under criminal investigation in the country for using a third-party company to smear any former player or official who disparaged the club.  Now, the ex-President, Josep Bartomeu, has been arrested, along with others -- and it is now believed that Lionel Messi is all but gone this summer.  The question Barca fans may need to ask is, with all the trouble, on and off the pitch, Barca has gotten into...  One may have to question a forced relegation, or would that kill Spanish top-flight soccer for good?   
  • Seth Jahn has been expelled from the US Soccer Federation Athlete's Council for a racist National Anthem rant.
