If the universities really cared about the safety and health of their students ...

They would ban alcohol instead of cancelling football. Statistically speaking, of course.

Al Capone would approve of this message

Take it a step further. If politicians really care about the people, they'd ban alcohol because that worked so well last time.

If they really cared, they would all hang themselves.

 

[Mile High Lion]

Uh, I thought they did. Isn't it illegal to purchase or consume alcohol if you are under 21?

 

[MtNittany]

...they'd stop teaching anything but STEM?

canceling the fall football season or moving it to the spring should be a no-brainer.

This is going to be the most boring and stupidest college football season of all time, where we will be treated to silent games that look like practices in front of zero fans.

It will be like Pitt cloned itself and popped up all over the USA

ratings will be in the dumpster and nobody will have cared if it never happened

Worse yet, players will get the virus and statistically some may pass away from it.

Are you saying that fans won't watch games if they can't hear a crowd? I can only speak for myself but that's down on the list of reasons why I watch football.

Probably not.

And yet, most players are saying they want to play, even the very best draft pics. Football is about the players first and foremost, not the fans. It's the same argument against too many bowls. Never understood why fans constantly say that. Are fans playing? Nope. For many players, it's their last game ever. Why shouldn't they play a final bowl game? Who does it hurt?

Not when a school is staging and underwriting it.

 

[Hotshoe]

OK - wait and see.

Wait and see what? That fans aren't happy? What am I waiting for? Don't want to watch? No one is forcing you to. Who cares. Is this about you? Next thing you'll tell me is Hillary and Trump will end up in jail.

No players, no fans. No talent, no one cares. Why nearly every league outside of the NFL, CFL, and NCAA has failed. Exactly why the MAC isn't playing. No one cares and they don't make money. P5 makes money and folks want to watch. Attendance is also down on NCAA football due to tv. The game is about the players. No players, no game, no fans. Fans don't provide the sport, players do.

Unless it's coming from someone in health care, anyone that states that "health and safety is our #1 priority" is just spitting out PR lip service. If safety truly was priority #1, football would cease to exist. That doesn't mean I think they should stop playing, it simply means that not playing football is safer than playing football.

People in healthcare are the ones giving out Opoids like candy.

No school with checkbook, no players, no game unless they want to play pickup on a sandlot somewhere.

Ratings will be in the dumpster, now that is some seriously funny shit......

 

[Ward Hog]

Probably not.

May and probably are the key words. No matter what happens you're both right.
