i can't speak for all of florida, but in my area in Tampa, people wear masks. I don't go out much, but when i do (target, walmart, winn dixie), i see a majority of the people wearing them. They should have never opened the gyms and bars.

Why it seem like more active players testing positive now then in march when they called the season

Because they are out and about and the people they come in contact with are all doing the same thing. It was bound to reach them ... it is bound to reach everybody eventually.

One players turns up with in the playoffs and everything's cancelled!

You're seeing all the non Trump supporters wearing the masks.
All the Trump supporting idiots still refuse to wear masks because "it infringes on their constitutional rights".

Desantis has convinced the conservative cacs that this shit is done and over with. Even with the recent resurge very few people outside of the major cities aren't wearing masks (except Jacksonville - host of the RNC convention w/ no masks required). The NBA just needs to just cancel this shit but these greedy muhfuckas don't GAF about sacrificing another 100,000+ lives for $$.

On the real... the NBA needs to cancel it.

If I was a player... I don't see how I'd risk it. I mean you would be playing in a hotspot with players from 22 other teams.... All it takes is one vender and you have an outbreak.

Also what happens to the teams if a Star gets it... The rest of the team and the team they played against will have to self isolate for 14 days.. What happens to all the games that team misses. What happens if a players gets it during the playoffs or the finals...

I was watching a Soccer match with no crowd shit was retarded . They pumped in fake cheers and crowd noise and the stands were full of cardboard cut out people .

They rather spread the disease than keep everyone safe....


This is only the beginning because when it starts to get colder and this virus coincides with the flu. The number is going to get bigger. I don't want to hear these Trump supporters say they regret not wearing a mask.....I don't want to hear that bullshit.

These same idiots are claiming any increase in the virus is from "more testing being done" and "all the looters and rioters".

Why it seem like more active players testing positive now then in march when they called the season

The news and medical officials are blaming it on A/C and recycled air as people are congregating and going into buildings with A/C to escape the heat.


That might have some truth to it, but I feel it's more to deal with motherfuckers are out here being rich, young men, with tons of free time chasing ass and a getting into shit.

Yep that AC is the culprit. That's why the protestors have had low low numbers. People forget the Trump Mafia was protesting in cold weather with NO masks
an HVAC system can be a catalyst for spread. Weddings, Gyms, Bar's are Petri dishes

Cause America is stupid.

So yea.

I think them muthafuckas flocking to the beach is a huge issue as well.
