On pondering it further, maybe games will be allowed if no one gets closer than 6' to another fan!

So, Stanfurd was ahead of the times, as it already had, in effect, such a policy.

if we lose that first game maybe that won't be an issue!

Which would be tough to do on the concourse.

It was low hanging fruit, not necessarily relevant anymore

Thanks for the post. I'm watching old football games just to get through the monotony of being at home all the time. Here's what I REALLY don't get; closing golf courses! There's a sport that is almost DEFINED by social distancing, for crying out loud!!! But thanks for giving us something to read that has "Cal" in the headline...... Much appreciated.

I finally got hand sanitizer by showing up at the supermarket at 6am......whew!

Go Bears!

I’m officially quarantined as of today. Work cancelled starting tomorrow until further notice.

Playing right now:

BREAKING BAD S1:E1 Pilot

It will be my 2nd time watching it. I think Walking Dead is next, plus I’ll mix in old Cal games. 😔

Hand sanitizer is helpful on the go, but all you really need is soap and water.

I'm doing all of the above and more!

Everything is up in the air, with some folks saying the stay-at-home order will be in place until June, or maybe later. I think we have to be ready to see the season postponed or canceled.

That's a blow to the dome: football season postponed or cancelled. It seems more likely, given the calendar, that MLB's 2020 season would suffer that fate.

Yeah, MLB is toast at this point. I'm starting to see timelines extending out towards October, so...we do need to be prepared for the thought there might not be football either.

There is a guy on the other site selling $6 toilet paper rolls, so that’s good. Plenty of wild turkeys around, so as long as you are well armed, as an Real American should be, there is a reasonable substitute. Gathering sufficient wild seeds will occupy most of your spare time.

Live long and prosper.
