[QUOTE="TheFameProtector, post: 1562110, member: 517079"] Timing is definitely a bit eyebrow-raising, but at the end of the day, this is the realism you want from our leaders across all segments of society. Things have been really bad of late and I personally will applaud those that are being realistic and addressing the seriousness of the situation in front of a camera. And he's 100% right about needing to minimize risks given the vaccine is about to start being distributed. That said, I still selfishly want b-ball to continue -- I don't see the downside of creating a bubbly environment for B1G play. And FWIW (I don't mean to sound too uncaring here) I would 100% endorse labelling athletes (college and professional) as essential and right behind healthcare workers/seriously ill for the vaccine. I think I'd rather have basketball to watch than toilet paper to wipe with :ROFLMAO: (though my wife would beg to differ) [/QUOTE]
