2020 Football
« on: June 22, 2020, 07:30:48 PM »
Will there be a season? If so; will they require masks of some sort? Will we be any good?

I don't know jack shit about football and never much cared unless the Illini or Bears were playing.

Saw somewhere that part of the issue is they want to stop the players from using COVID as an excuse to "unionize"....makes sense based on some of the things been hearing out of the PAC 10

A bunch of old people performing a CYA for a virus that hasn’t really affected young healthy athletes seems like a very effective way to jump start a massive unionization campaign.

It could be that in part.  You also have to consider collateral damage to older coaches, staff, and university instructors should virus ramp up on the entire campus.  Other dominoes set to fall IMHO.  No one has looked silly overreacting to this pandemic, just those who underestimate it.

Mother of Indiana Freshman Brady Feeney Says Her Son Seriously 'Struggling with Virus'

"Debbie Rucker, the mother of incoming Indiana freshman offensive lineman Brady Feeney, went to Facebook on Monday asking for prayers for her son, who is struggling mightily with the COVID-19 virus.”

“Indiana athletic department officials have been releasing positive test results every week or so, but they have not ever mentioned which players or coaches or staff members have tested positive. In their most recent announcement last Friday, the school reported that there had been 33 positive tests out of 480.”

https://www.si.com/college/indiana/football/indiana-freshman-brady-feeney-seriously-ill-covid-19

Feeney is a 6-foot-4, 325-pound lineman from St. Louis, Mo.  Here’s an excerpt from his mother's FB post:

"Here is our story...

"My son was negative when he got tested at the beginning of volunteer workouts. Within three weeks he and multiple others tested positive. His university has done everything right by shutting down workouts and retesting the whole team."

"Unfortunately this virus hit my son very hard compared to most of his teammates. Here was a kid in perfect health, great physical condition and due to the virus ended up going to the ER because of breathing issues. After 14 days of hell battling the horrible virus, his school did additional testing on all those that were positive. My son even received extra tests because he was one of the worst cases."

"Now we are dealing with possible heart issues! He is still experiencing additional symptoms and his blood work is indicating additional problems. Bottom line, even if your son’s schools do everything right to protect them, they CAN’T PROTECT THEM!!”

"I pray my son recovers from this horrible virus and can lead a healthy normal life!! Football does not really matter when your child’s health is in jeopardy!! Think about it!!! My heart is hurting and I pray for all of these kids and for the people making the decisions about the season!!!”

“Please protect all of those around you and please wear a mask!!!”

“Thank you for listening!!”

Huh? The Pac-10 players started the rumblings early on and Big 10 players had jumped on it too.

Yeah, I still call it the Pac-10.

Brady's cardiologist has not cleared him to return to workouts.

He’s young and fat and possibly prediabetic but it’s hilarious that someone somewhat finds the exception that proves the rule and we’ve got you and Alum74 over here holding it up like Simba

Finding one 325 lb 18 year old that got sick doesn’t do much to refute me saying “hasn’t really done much to young healthy athletes”

I didn’t say “no athlete has ever or will ever get sick from this” so essentially the fact that teams have been practicing and holding workouts and we have exactly one case to point to is a pretty good indication that this virus isn’t a big threat to the athletes.
