OC practice paused

Not open for further replies.

I have a friend who tested positive for covid. But only after making an appointment and never showing up for the test. 5 days later he gets an email saying he tested positive for covid. After hearing this stuff, I’m sitting here scratching my head not knowing what to make of this but realizing that we are truly living in the twilight zone.

lots of strange things going on.And that’s why I don’t trust our governor or mayor anymore. I got a ton of stuff on them that just does not add up and why Texas keeps looking better and better every day.

Well, we’ve been focused on the skate park and she’s picking it up fast. Yesterday she came over to the bench that I was sitting on and said “dad, that dude keeps snaking me.” I’m still trying to figure what she meant but I think she‘s picking up on skater slang.

We haven’t started surfing yet. I’m thinking Linda Mar in Pacifa. I thought my buddy was going to give us lessons but he doesn’t want to lose “cool points” at the beach with me. I guess its not cool to surf with a 5mm wetsuit, hood, gloves, booties, and heated rash guard.

I may have to wait until I see you for the lessons. Is my surf gear that lame or is my buddy being a diva?

Can't tell if you're being serious (going for the whole Eskimo waddle if serious...), but Lindamar's running right now at mid to high 50's, so 4/3 + booties max. To be fair, hot chocolate in a thermos waiting in the truck is probably warranted. Btw, the south end of of the bay is best to learn. Generally slighter better shape. South of the Taco Bell.

hey big guy how are you doing? It’s been A while.


Here listening to the song needles by System of a Down. A song written 20 years ago and it describes 2020 to the tea. These guys were ahead of their time.

“I'm just sitting in my room
I'm just sitting in my room
With a needle in my hand
Just waiting for the tomb
Of some old dying man
Sitting in my room
With a needle in my hand
Just waiting for the tomb
Of some old dying man?
Cause you
My tapeworm tells me what to do
You My tapeworm tells me where to go
Pull the tapeworm out of your ass, hey”

We’re all suffering, but who knows what’s going to go down in Texas with all their numbers rising.

I believe wearing a mask and social distancing helps reduce R0, but, alone, it's won't put it under 1. Get enough people with immunity and then you have a shot with mask and distancing. Now isn't a great time in TX, AZ or FL. However, it looks like AZ might be turning the corner. Get enough people with immunity due to exposure and a mask and social distancing can be enough. I wouldn't be surprised to see AZ look pretty good come September and then through the fall. I haven't followed the trends in TX and FL so I can't tell where they are in the curve, but it seems like they aren't far behind AZ. The places I worry about in the fall are those that haven't had much exposure yet.

Did your friend also blow up a gas station when using his cell phone while pumping gas?

"As Florida reported the largest single-day increase in positive coronavirus cases anywhere in the United States since the beginning of the pandemic, social media began buzzing with people who claim they left a coronavirus test site because of a long line, but they still received a positive test result."

While this scenario sounds scary, there is no proof to back it up."

‘That scenario is nonsense.’ No proof exists for rumors about positive COVID results with no actual tests

In the last two weeks, social media has been buzzing with people who claim they left a COVID-19 test site because of a long line, and then received a positive test result. While this scenario sound…

Getting back to the OP.... did I miss something?? Did the state put out guidelines for youth sports in the last day or so?? These "camps" (outside of SD) were specifically stated to not include youth team sports were they not?

**** No need to bash Newsom or give me any political BS on anything it's just a legitimate question ***
Thanks

I'm so confused. Some are playing soccer and some are following the rules. My family will follow the rules from the Federal Government, State, County and City.

You keep telling yourself you won. You're like the guy that gets knocked out in a bar fight, wakes up after everyone else is gone and tells his co-workers he whipped some ass over the weekend. Fucking moron.

Not that I am aware of. I find it hard to believe that parents are willing to put their families health at risk for soccer. Maybe it’s the clubs or folks that profit from soccer that are promoting this foolishness.

My kids club has a financial incentive to keep my kid safe because they are focused on developing her to maximize her potential as opposed to collecting fees. I suspect my kid will be one of the first youth players that resume practice in a legitimate fashion and that has not happened yet. Nor do I expect it to happen anytime soon.

Families are at risk everyday. I've yet to see data that supports a virus that's anymore dangerous to kids than crossing the street in front of their schools. Do you? And whatever that risk may be, is it more or less destructive than the alternative? The virus isn't going away. How long do we shelter in place while the economy and education die a slow death?

@MacDre Agreed.... I don't get it...
@The Outlaw regarding your comment... I understand where you're coming from, I think what concerns me is that these clubs and families might screw it up for the rest of the clubs following the rules in the end. (regarding when we are officially "allowed" to return to practice)
