Stop making excuses for an inept governor. Call the effing ship in...stop changing the goal post and maybe someone will listen.
Surf Cup's Fate
- Thread starter oh canada
- Start date
So fun watching the youth soccer nuts wallow in self-pity. The greatest generation saves the world, and y’all get whiny that Sally can’t play Surf Cup. It’s been a real tough month for people with heartburn, eh?
All I did was point out that a 1000 bed ship is not big enough to eliminate the fact that we are close to filling all of our staffed ICU beds. And we aren't the only state with a problem right now.
Download a new game. Watch a movie. Go for a hike somewhere beautiful. Surf. Call up friends and play online bridge. Read a book.
In other words, deal with it. It will be better in April. Sooner, if fewer of us are out there making it worse.
If you want normalcy to return in the near future, it requires that you and your friends actually do something instead of whining about how saving lives is getting in the way of “the happiness we get out of seeing them play” kiddie soccer for a few months. Or a year plus since y’all refuse to get your act together.
If you’d known this would go on a year behaving stupidly like y’all did, would you have supported wearing masks and staying home from the start and encouraged others to do so also? Month 3 maybe? 6? 9?

It’s hilarious to see that grown men are so frustrated that a soccer tournament could be cancelled. Get a life and enjoy your family during the holidays. Arena soccer in Orange is open for rentals. It’s a lot of fun to get your kids play 5 v 5 and you don’t need to drive 6 hours. The rentals are just $50 an hour.
Iowa, Kansas and the Dakotas could really use one of those ships right now. Maybe San Diego can sail theirs down the I-5 to Phoenix for Surf Cup and then up the CO river after they’re finished with it.

Run, do not walk, away from that tournament.
I think your self imposed isolation bubble has clouded your ability to consciously reason in your thought process. I live in California and my family like the vast majority of other families adhere to basic China virus safety guidelines. We wear our masks, avoid large crowds, dont dine inside, grocery shop during off hours, maintain social distance etc...but there comes a point where government over reach extends to much and violates our constitutional rights and infringes on our freedom. One size does not fit all. 10 million people crammed into a socialist utopia city shoulder to shoulder walking around and living 12 deep in a 2 bedroom apartment may have to lock down and isolate to lower the curve. Several dozen parents spread out on the sidelines with their masks on watching their kids play is not the reason for the China virus spike so imposing the same unconstitutional orders upon them limiting virtually everything makes no sense and doing it while you are dining with 12 people inside at the most expensive restaurant in the country is the height of socialist hypocrisy.
Open play book, look at audible #3 - answer with ##### of people dead. Area you anti Syrian or Indian? Why the hate?
Closing down fields to local clubs and the local population is plain dumb. Nothing scientific about it and doesn't address anything. Changing coolant to fix a a flat tire.. Denying field access to an out of state entity with the intent of bringing in thousands of people is at least a somewhat rational solution to cutting down people traffic.
Not surprised at all that Phoenix chose to make a political statement rather than follow science - kinda like your boys Newsome and Garcetti.
The 1000 beds and accompanied medical personnel would save lives and would help more than that over a 4 month period. That’s a self defeatist attitude similar to our governor whose lack of leadership pukes out daily.
Yes, science has proven that old people in their rest homes cause it to go from one geographical location to the next. It can’t possibly be spread by 60,000 people traveling to the same place for a kiddie soccer tournament and then back again. Of course, they’re really all just dying of heartburn anyway, or being decapitated by their parents if the heartburn doesn’t get ‘em, right @crush?
Happy you live in AZ? I was there in Scottsdale 2 months ago and the resteraunts were packed inside. I wore my mask inside one to get my pizza to go and everyone looked at me like I had the plague. There really is no voluntary mask use at all that I saw around the Scottsdale area we were at. Restaurants and bars appeared to be business as usual. So if there is a rise in china virus cases it is most likely due to local residents and the chances of some parents sitting spread out on the sidelines with their masks on causing a big spike just ain't gonna happen I'm no scientist and everything put out from the scientific community does not indicate youth sports and the parents watching are one of the primary factors in rising China virus numbers.
Racist. Definitely Outlaw or one of his brother cousin uncles.
60k? No, no no you are thinking of a Trump rally. 1000 soccer teams even with 4 family members each is only 4k people. Maybe few hundred spread out around 10 fields at any given time too.
Um, excuse my ignorance Mr. Ewok, but what exactly was racist there? Before you answer consider that I may be an African American or perhaps a simple humble honky.

Hahaha great math, is every kid on every team related? Brains I’ll call you.
4K is about right for a Trump rally

Yes, my bad, you are correct.
Kind of weird that they want to shut down tournaments but keep hotels and restaurants open.
Hotels and restaurants are the reason tournaments are high risk. The soccer itself is low to medium risk. They're keeping the high risk activity and closing the low risk one.
Hope they open it up for you guys soon.
Crazy but my daughter got an email from school to start track practice Tuesday. 100 and 200. Not bad for a goalkeeper.
