See, to me, when it comes to beaches, parks and other outdoor activities it depends.

I've seen beach pictures where there are a bunch of people partying and hanging out together. That's not real bright.

But I've also seen pictures where people were at the beach with well over 6 feet of distance between them, which wouldn't be an issue.

I also saw one of guys playing pickup basketball. On one court, there were teams of 5 guys each. Unless they all somehow knew they weren't infected...not the best idea.

On another court, it was 2 guys playing 1 on 1. That's probably fine if they were friends or family members.

See that is just it.

Is it fine?

How can each friend be sure the other doesn’t have it unless they are quarantined together? They can’t.

My neighborhood is pretty well self contained. We live in a spot wher

No disagreement....but trying to claim some sort of "win" because Towns' mom got very sick from this is a little off base. People get very sick from the flu, as well.

No...this does not mean I believe this is the same as the standard flu.

And yet, many people in this forum (not saying you) have said exactly that.

IMO, comparing Covid19 to flu only makes people take it less seriously. Because we all live with flu season every single winter. And while it sucks to get it, it isn’t really something to fear for most.

Coronavirus is different.

Not in Arizona.

They closed a few bars, libraries and pools at some hotspot Hotels in Scottsdale.

That's about it.

We have like 5 Amazon Warehouses here.

All are hiring and delivering daily.

I got a package yesterday.

@ChiefsLakers67 , @trojanfan12 ,

Doesn't @Shaqdaddy11 live in the Seattle area?

Has she been here over the last week?

I live about an hours drive south of Seattle.

From what I've seen on the local news it's gotten a LOT quieter.

The kids, husband and I have been "self isolating" for just over a week now. Only time we go out is for groceries once every 5 days or so.

Did your self isolation include not coming on SportsHoopla?

 

[bksballer89]

Should we be encouraged or discouraged by the high # of new cases daily these days?

Actually let my son do the latter with a friend. Each used separate balls. Not 1 on 1. Just shooting.

worst situation has been for daughter from OU. Usually a pretty social kid and this is rough on her (like I'm sure it is most like her).

after a week of being inside took her saturday with me to drop off some food to her grandmother (she stayed in hall).

Let her drive. such a smile when we got going. saw a person walking and screamed, "OMG....another human!!!!

Love that kid.

So she got it from the mom?

Pretty much.

No sports, nothing to discuss.

Drew Brees- class act

He & his wife donated 5 mil to coronavirus hunger relief in Louisiana.

I see a lot of athletes stepping up to the plate and helping out.....not surprised at Brees at all....

Ain't that a bitch, pastor?

Hence the "as long as they are friends or family members" part of my post.

 

[dtgold88]

More cases but Italy still with way more deaths

which is nice?

I shouldn't laugh but I did. Not joyously, but couldn't help let out one of those sly smile snorting laughs

Kids, this is why you don't vote for a reality TV jackass as president of the U.S. Regardless of party or gender...

I know I won't ever be bragging about living through this year 2020.
