First, my hope is that you find me amusing with a message. I advocate that our family follows the rules set out by the leaders regardless if you like them or not. Do I agree with the rules? Hell no. Do I obey the rules for soccer? Yes. Do I want someone else to break the rules to play soccer? Yes. I think these are silly rules. I wont snitch on you either if you break a rule.
Why keep arguing, NO FALL SOCCER!

Exactly what I've been saying and what everyone on here has been torching me for. Imagine getting the virus from playing soccer.First article I've seen that discusses Covid-19 transmission via youth soccer. Not endorsing it, I still think soccer is a relatively low risk sport and can be made even lower risk by changing the game a bit. From Danbury, CT mayor. Small spike, 200 people (not all from soccer), but it seems they are shutting fields back down.
Danbury Mayor Urging Residents to Take Coronavirus Alert Seriously; Discusses Risk, Spike in Youth Soccer
“Well, we had the first case in the state and now we have the first surge in the state,” said Danbury Mayor Mark Boughton, after a day jam-packed with free testing in his city for residents with or without symptoms. Boughton said he, along with other city and state officials, are urging people...www.nbcconnecticut.com
My friends wife caught the virus at her work, imagine that. I would expect some folks to catch the virus from other places like the beach, from a loved one and from school. A Marine got the virus last night. A police officer got the virus two days ago.
Let’s assume 99.6% is the rate right now (I’m not sure if that’s correct, but I’ll agree to that). However, that is the rate right now with most or many who are medium to high risk taking extra good care of themselves and avoiding any high risk activities.
If we were to let the virus run free and infect anybody and everybody, like in a typical flu season prior to covid, do you know how many middle aged overweight motherf’s this thing will take out? Not to mention the older population and many others with pre-existing conditions. That’s where the 2.2 - 4 million figure came from.
Now, life must go on and the longer this goes on I may be willing to take on more risk for mental health reasons, but let’s not confuse this thing with the flu.

. I don’t know what you are talking about. This weekend alone we had: MLS soccer, Indoor soccer games in Orange, basketball leagues, baseball tournaments.
You did see that they confirmed a re-infection overseas. Covid is going to be like the flu, it will not go away but it will be deadlier for the elderly and more contagious than the flu. So should we quarantine for the next 5 years??!
Sorry, it is the boat ramp.
“Our boat ramp certainly gets a lot of activity,” Boughton said in a phone interview. “There’s a parking lot where a lot of people tend to congregate. We’re trying to limit some of the interaction out on the lake. Boats are tying off — seven, eight, nine, 10 boats at a time. There’s no social distancing going on. Obviously, no masks are being worn, and that’s an area of concern for us.”
Oh wait, it was travel.
Kara Prunty, Danbury’s acting public health director, said Monday that the spike was due to “domestic and international travel, as well as small private gatherings.” She said city officials were conducting targeted outreach to provide free testing to residents who might be at risk.
“I heard there was one family of 14,” Boughton said, adding that he would not reveal any names. “They had a visit from an overseas relative, and that person was positive. ... This is community spread [overall]. It’s basically from international travel, national travel.
Sorry, it is only youth sports, not High School sports that is causing the problem.
"Things like Pop Warner Football, soccer leagues, they'e all going to have to shut down after this weekend," Boughton said during a livestreamed news conference on Wednesday night. The sports shutdowns do not include high school sports, Boughton said, as those are the purview of the Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Conference.
Please show the date, time, article that the medical experts said to go on a "cruise".
Why would you think that only one kind of event can spread the virus?
BIG ones..With D3 ,NAIA, and JC coaches onsite and the capability to stream to D1/D2. Amazing what $$ do to drive ingenuity and will to solve problems.

So then the President doesn't need to have every single person he is going to have contact with, tested. Great, will save us a lot of money.
Ahh, my poor little victim, I’m so sorry you had to suffer in California for the last 30 years. Ask your kids if they want to leave.
We agree. But why haven’t we solved it after having spent $10,000,000,000,000?
You raise a good point.

I guess they don't love soccer enough. EDP on the east coast apparently does. Maybe the people who run Surf Cup Sports need to be consulted to help run CA. It's possible they will make better use of the money than politicians do. Politicians rarely know how to balance a checkbook or draw on sound economic principles to achieve any type of fiscal success.

Then why are you still here? I'm sure we could take up a collection on this board to pay your relocation costs.
