    I think the season starts with some fans in attendance, then at some point the remainder either gets cancelled entirely, or fans no longer allowed at games.

    Could be. But I think based on the fact that they are playing soccer in Europe right now and baseball with fans in attendance that a season will happen. I've seen some fear mongerers saying MLB can't decide how to handle COVID when the reality is they could be playing right now if they weren't fighting over money and are practicing right now.

    But here's the thing to remember- two months from now people will be even less scared than they are now. The media can only cry wolf so much.

    I'd love to think your last paragraph is right. However, w the death rate going on a huge downturn and the freak is huge now. I doubt it.

    You got another week or so before you really see if the death rates are going to shoot back up. You better be holding your breath that it doesn?t happen or all our asses will be locked down again.

    It's not the people being afraid that I think will be the problem. It will be the media trumpeting about that guy that went to a game at Oklahoma State and got sick. Now the media has no way to prove that the guy didn't get COVID at the game but we're going to assume that's where he got it because it wasn't a protest and therefore wrong.

    I have no idea what the death rate will do, but the downward trend is not just in the US. Using world stats (7-day avg), cases have been going up since April 8th. The death rate starting dropping on April 18th before sorta flattening out on May 29th.

    Finally, a modest proposal.
