Is this over reaction or is there some shite that is being hidden from the general public?

Outside of 9/11 never have we seen these types of closures and cancellations.

It’s Italy and the social media/SJW mindset.

Italy is scaring the shite out of people bc it’s gotten legitimately bad there. But it’s mainly that no one wants to be held responsible for one sickness bc they’ll get crucified

It’s like a stock market crash. Except instead of panic sell it’s panic closures

SJW mindset.


wtf

you mean liability-avoidance mindset

I don't think people are cancelling sports because they believe in 100 genders

The closures after 9/11 were not this drastic. They are cancelling entire seasons.

I blame the rise of social media over the past 5 or so years.

Listen to the health experts. Stay away from here for the next couple of months if you want to avoid disinformation and fake news being spread by irresponsible and frankly dangerous people.

With the sports closures there’s definitely a left wing, SJW “oh my god these poor athletes think of the athletes!!” push coming from the same group that loves player empowerment movement in the nba and can’t write an article about college sports without some sort of “free labor while old white get rich” comments

Not a conspiracy guy but this feels like a “keep your eyes/attention here, because we got this shite over here going on”.

And this is why I start to wonder if people at the top know something they don’t want to rest of us to know. Cancelling and suspending sporting events will cost billions of dollars to team owners, networks, and local economies.

There is so much unknown and false info out there. What the general public doesn’t know is what makes us the general public.

Youth soccer programs in Alabama. Not the same as Travel Ball, we don’t have any Braylynns on the team. But still, big local tourney this weekend is done.

These closures are to prevent it from getting as bad as Italy. How do y'all not understand this? Cancellations of events and schools are an inconvenience in order to prevent a complete economic meltdown.

I don't think Vince McMahon is gonna cancel the XFL or Wrestlemania. He doesn't seem to give a crap.

Was coming here to post about WM.

Pretty sure he’s not going to have a choice.


What really sucks is all the Indy shows that revolve around WM. Those guys make tons of money and now...?
