Why keep arguing, NO FALL SOCCER!

Thanks GTTB, curious as to where you saw that? I sure hope it sticks and what that means, if anything, for Fall Phx event.

I believe that event has been cancelled for some time.

People aren't vacationing not only because of fear, but because when you get somewhere there's nothing to do. Places like Park City are busy though and while things like the ropes course are closed, others like the alpine slide or the lakes are open and busy. Bestie is in Idaho and has a similar experience. Camp grounds in the Wasatch Mountains have been full.

Can't go to Hawaii. 14 day quarantine....unless you use a service or have a friend get your groceries it's impossible to even get settled. Hawaii has trashed its economy and still has a COVID problem. Other places like New Mexico and New York have quarantines too. Given the civil unrest it's not like people are beating down the doors to get New York City, San Francisco or Portland.

Yes, it's affected things. The House of Mouse is down too in attendance and is restricting hours. But from what we know, young adults are still going to Disney World. It's the families which are absent. Yes, some people are kept away because maybe a theme park isn't the best place to be right now, particularly if you are vulnerable. But also the families don't want to argue with the 7 year old about keeping a mask on all day, and why make the trip of a lifetime if they can't even meet Mickey?

And obviously because of travel bans Europe is off the table. Large corps are going to have a problem post-vaccine. Lots of employees will want to have time off for delayed vacations or obligations (like weddings).

Gosh, it’s almost like 97% of the world knows something we don’t.

November Phoenix showcase? I have heard this week it is still on.

Maybe it's back on, hope so for ECNLs sake. They had taken the timer down off of the website. Then the proverbial grapevine had announced the cancellation. Hopefully it's still on, great for the hospitality/food service business in that part of Phoenix. By NOV, all fields should be open.

Heard from a parent in the GAL club. So if GAL's not playing I would assume ECNL's not playing either. Games are being scheduled for late October.

And the weather is awesome......
 
CSL announced today that the fall season would be pushed back from 3 Oct to 17 Oct.

Yes, we all desperately WANT to play but it doesn't matter if it's GA, CSL, SCDSL, ECNL or anyone else; games in SoCal anytime in the coming months look to be almost impossible. The next likely step is to push them back to November; that will happen sometime later this month.
 
Let's get back to the topic on hand everyone. Soccerhelper is hearing some good news. I wont share because it's grapevine material and rumor mills and gossip. I do know lot's of folks are getting restless. 29 more days until October hits us all. Where or wear will wee bee regarding soccer in October? SW ECNL games & Surf Cup October treats or just more tricks on the folks?

I'm hearing the same thing. I believe ECNL's meeting today to discuss the upcoming schedule.

CSL and SCDSL already did a smart thing dividing the season into 2 parts. Now they will just have to cancel 1st and start with 2nd in January.

I can't claim any inside information, just that we were told we were signed up for it and it was on as of a few days ago.

This is a really solid and cogent article. It is absolutely, positively critical to know what other factors contribute to people dying of Covid so that we can better target efforts to reducing risks for people in those higher risk categories who are likely to die from it. This saves lives not only for those who get C19, but for many other reasons as well.

Unfortunately, you have irresponsible, uneducated complete dumbs**ts like @MSK357 who misrepresent a hugely important process to falsely claim that it proves no one is dying of C19. Maybe he believes it, but probably he’s doing this only because he’s humiliated that he predicted 15, then 40, then 100, then no more deaths than 12,000, then no more than 60,000 followed by absolutely positively never in the hundreds of thousands. Regardless, think about it. We have an idiot who is trying to tear down and misrepresent basic processes that are critical to saving lives because he’s embarrassed and too much of a p**sy to admit that he’s wrong, and wrong, and wrong, and wrong, and then wrong again.

In fact, @MSK357’s argument is so ridiculously stupid in its face that it is hard to believe anyone supports it. Consider, for example, the death certificate that lists covid, heart disease and obesity as causes of death. By his insane logic, they didn’t die of covid because it was heart disease and obesity. But that also means they didn’t die of heart disease because they died of the other two. And they also didn’t die from obesity because they died of the other two.

The type of anti-science b.s. that folks like @MSK357 spew should be mocked at every possible opportunity. Very few, but still too many, people read and accept stupid posts like his and refuse to put in the effort necessary to read or understand actual science, or political reasoning, or anything on a subject by those who actually know what they’re talking about. They need to be humiliated over and over again until it is very clear that they need to keep their unthoughtful s**t anonymous, and are driven back under their little rocks and other dark places where cockroaches congregate.

Thank you for posting this article. I’m sure we won’t see any legitimate article from @MSK357 in response.

My brother was in Tahoe last weekend for work and said it was packed!

It’s been the busiest I’ve ever seen it in my life all summer and we spend time up there every single year.
That is not to say that some segments haven’t been absolutely devastated because they have. Just not Tahoe!
