NCAA cancels remaining winter and spring championships
March 12, 2020 4:07pm

Today, NCAA President Mark Emmert and the Board of Governors canceled the Division I men’s and women’s 2020 basketball tournaments, as well as all remaining winter and spring NCAA championships. This decision is based on the evolving COVID-19 public health threat, our ability to ensure the events do not contribute to spread of the pandemic, and the impracticality of hosting such events at any time during this academic year given ongoing decisions by other entities.

Morons. This is the most overhyped thing in the history of mankind. These idiots are going to look back on this and marvel in how stupid everyone has been.

It started in China but it's an election tree for the US 2020 election? Brilliant.

The scum gumps just claimed their first baseball and basketball championships, unless of course they have already "claimed" several of those at the turn of the 20th century. Screw the gumps

I've never seen such panic over what is going to amount to a hill of beans.

Part of it is to stop the spread so it doesn’t become like this every year

SuckFickNaban•50 months

The annoying part is that these drastic precautionary measures are going to be what prevents it from being terrible and then dummies like you are going to come back in 2 months saying that it was an over reaction

@suckficknaban This will not do anything. People still have to go the grocery, work, gas station, interact constantly. This is all propaganda for the people in charge to protect their money from being sued. An indirect way of greed really. People will still interact no matter if tournaments are cancelled. Sporting events make up probably less than 1% of interactions

I look at it this way something potentially bad as the 1917-1920 Spanish Flu epidemic. My hometown graveyard has hundreds of people who died from the Spanish flu mostly infants and the elderly . Then President Wilson ignored the problem. Good precautions by Sports organizations. I hope to God it doesn’t get worst. I’m caring for my elderly sister and hell I’m 64.

LSU is currently number 1 in: Beach Volleyball and Men’s and Women’s track, correct?

Does that mean Football as well?

Thanks China

Can someone post an appropriate email of NCAA? It needs to be done to inform them how much of sheeple and politically correct this BS is, and then a follow up email to rub it in when this dies down.

Tigers4Lyfe•50 months

And what will you do when many die? To heck with many, even one person?

Helicopter Richard•50 months

@Tigers4Lyfe... this website makes no sense. Other posts bashing this have been upvoted but mine downvoted... Tisk, tisk

What they’re doing is called flattening the curve dipshits. This sucks for everyone but it makes sense.
