I am trying to get soccer back. I just think league play and scrimmages are a more viable path.

No, no, no, no. The cause was because little Timmy played soccer the past weekend.4 Minnesota nursing homes cited for coronavirus prevention failures
MOORHEAD, Minn. — A Moorhead nursing home that’s had at least three residents die from COVID-19 violated several protocols in preventing the spread of the illness, including failing to alert …
Thank you for the dose of sanity. A reasonable logical approach. Your ability to continue to respond to the divisive, sarcastic and sometimes hostile comments with grace and civility is impressive.
My sister is a nurse. Her friend helps those who have no help after 80 years and can;t talk anymore or had a stroke and need help to eat through a tube. Most of these elderly patients of hers have no family members to help them or they treated their family bad and no one comes to visit or talk to them. It's a fact. This was all before Corona too. So the fact is is no one was really taking care of them from a family stand point and the nursing home let the virus in because some Gov mandated them to do it. No one watched out or cared for them and that's why they died. Don;t blame others for a disaster of a decision. Leaders lead and sometimes they make the wrong decision. Not only was it a disaster, it also caused the first panic in Kirkland WA. Death is coming to us all. Death of despair is man made and is causing so much worse damage than this virus.
My dd has two more years and then I'm out. So many people are moving out of Cali and New York. My friend teaches special needs in middle school and it's 100% a trainwreck. Lawsuits have been filed because special needs kids can;t learn online like so many others. So my boy has to answer to depositions all week because hard working parents are pissed. Think about this one. He has a great student who thrived in his class and is ADDHD or something like that. Now, the kid is going crazy at home and no one to teach her. Dad is essential worker and so is mom. Both make about $20 an hour. No one to watch their kid. Guess what the special need kid is up to all alone at home? 8th grader too. This is going to smack us all in this state soon and LA will be the center of attention. Kids that play video games are find and that's another social issue that is bad. This is all predictable. Why a mask? @dad4 and the gang, go to HB and walk around and try and snitch on the those breaking the recommendations from their leaders. Fear is a disease but it also makes people money. Follow the money. Mask is the key to victory for some.
What do you think the schools should do?

Why Experts are Almost Always Wrong
No one, not even the experts, really knows what's about to happen
Another big failure by politicians and experts is they tried to force compliance through fear mongering and pretended that the rules were based on science, when in fact most weren't. For one example (there are endless examples), Pritzer limited boating in Illinois to two people per boat from the same family. Well if you were a family of 5 you were SOL and had to be split between 3 boats. When you make up arbitrary rules that defy common sense you lose credibility and people start to ignore legitimate rules. If we had to take a shot for every time a politician and their apologists says "we have to rely on the science" we'd all be alcoholics. There is this myth that science is some sort of consensus, when in reality it never is.
Its funny to me that if you disagree with any of the Covid lockdown rules, you get shamed for not believing in science or thinking your smarter than an expert. Apparently what ever a handpicked expert says, you should turn off your brain and not use your own common sense and thinking abilities...despite the fact that experts are rarely right or often change their opinions.
There still is a lot about transmission that is not understood. There are certainly cases where the source was obvious. But, what was happening in NY with the bulk of the cases coming from those sheltering in place hasn't been explained.
Maybe it's because they are asymptomatic and not coughing all over the place. Also, being asymptomatic, they virus may not be re-producing as well. Grace, any ideas?
You obviously don't have an older player. Olders at the higher level have been playing year round. They have now not played in any games since the middle of March. To throw them into a tournament when they haven't even practiced in three months, and will probably return to limited practice in June and probably won't have a "real" game until middle or late July, is really putting players at risk for injury. The older players have a lot on the line, for those who have not committed yet and for those who have not signed their NLI. Start the games but not college showcases/tournaments for them until September, October or November. The little ones can play because the risk/benefit is completely different. This has nothing to do with covid-19 and everything to do with preparing players and teams to be game ready for the showcases.
