Re: 2020 CBI Tournament Cancelled
I'd venture to say that the NCAA Tournament will go on. There's just wwwwwaaaaayyyyy too much money involved in that for the NCAA to cancel it.

Re: 2020 CBI Tournament Cancelled
So, with the cancellation of the CBI Tournament, I assume that diminishes our chances for post season play.

Maybe we will get the CIT bid, if they don't cancel their tournament.

MLB prefers teams flip sites if coronavirus shuts down ballparks
If Major League Baseball can’t play in front of fans at a team’s home ballpark because of the virus outbreak, the sport’s first preference likely would be to switch games to the visiting team’s stadium if possible, a person familiar with the deliberations told The Associated Press.
MLB starts its season on March 26. Among the games on opening day is Texas at Seattle — the Seattle area has been hit hard by the virus, with 24 deaths.

Re: 2020 CBI Tournament Cancelled
Understand your point, but this thing is going to continue to spread, sporting events or not. While it is just a game, there are livelihoods that “DEPEND” on these games. Vendors, security and countless support staffs can’t put food on the table if there are no games. I do think that the correct decisions are being made in relation to large gatherings, but the ramifications of said decision goes deeper than “a game”.

Re: 2020 CBI Tournament Cancelled
I see what you mean, but if we continue to have these events, the virus will spread much, much faster. Maybe I'm in the minority here, but I'd rather be broke than lose a family member, a close friend, or my own life.AppSt94 wrote: ↑Fri Mar 13, 2020 6:28 amUnderstand your point, but this thing is going to continue to spread, sporting events or not.

Re: 2020 CBI Tournament Cancelled
I don’t disagree with you. I have older parents. One with COPD and one with diabetes and has had a heart attack. So I am concerned or them and worry about them coming into contact with anyone, including myself. It could have fatal consequences. But at the same time, you can’t live your life in fear. Please understand that I am not attempting to trivialize this outbreak. But it seems that we could all curb the spread of this with simple solutions, such as basic hygiene and making conscious decisions.MrCraig wrote: ↑Fri Mar 13, 2020 6:46 amI see what you mean, but if we continue to have these events, the virus will spread much, much faster.

Re: 2020 CBI Tournament Cancelled
What's different about this virus is we don't know jack about it & it's crossing the globe very quickly. It has already infested 4 countries (i.e. China, Italy, Iran, South Korea) & it's only been less than 3 months. The death toll is somewhat low but it's hitting people very very quickly. Other pandemic viruses from the past (i.e. Zika '16, H1N1 '09) were concerning but we were able to handle these easily & wasn't so widely spread. This one is different, so it's best to cancel social events or anything that may speed up the rate.AppSt94 wrote: ↑Fri Mar 13, 2020 7:03 amI don’t disagree with you. I have older parents.

And I agree, we just need to maintain good hygiene & use common sense. But do you really think every US citizen has common sense, or will remember to wash their hands?
Look at Georgia Southern. They've managed to beat us two seasons in a row & still can't figure out how to count to 10 & win the SunBelt!! Let's face it; some people here in the US have no IQ at all.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that H1N1 flu infected nearly 61 million people in the United States and caused 12,469 deaths. Worldwide, up to 575,400 people died from pandemic swine flu.MountaineerChemist10 wrote: ↑Fri Mar 13, 2020 9:00 amOther pandemic viruses from the past (i.e. Zika '16, H1N1 '09) were concerning but we were able to handle these easily & wasn't so widely spread.

Re: 2020 CBI Tournament Cancelled
You aren’t gong to eradicate it nor will you slow it down. The majority of people are going to get it and it is possible that you won’t even know you had it. The cancellations of events has more to do with flattening the curve so to relieve the potential strain on resources. Large crowds up the risk for mass exposure which increases the influx of people visiting hospitals at once. It makes sense honestly
