NCAA tourney will be played without fans in attendance

 

[VolsAgainstTheWorld15]

Will the NCAA Tournament still be televised? I'm good with no fans as long as it is still going to be on TV.

I hope so but it will be weird watching.

The Italian government is increasing restrictions: all shops, bars & restaurants, except pharmacies and food markets will be closed.

The NCAA tournament held in empty stadiums is just plain going to be weird.

I think people need to get used to the possibility of an enormous financial hit to the entire world economy, including our own, for at least a year.

It will affect the entire planet so the world economy will relatively go down, making less of an impact overall for any individual economy.

So I guess that’s good news lol

Is in response to the NCAA announcement, so assume without fans..but who knows?

Living proofthat fermentation actually works over the long haul.

You could have stopped at "He shouldn't," which applies everytime that national embarrassment opens his yapper.

Doesnt stop you.

This is retarded. You flip that switch, you dont just get to flip it back on 365 days later.

This cowardice will reap more damage than the virus can dream of.

I just meant that business that depend on people coming in and spending money, could be in real trouble. Hotels, airlines, bars, restaurants. They could see precipitous drops in gross revenues. Not survive. And then the people that work there can't pay their home loans or auto loans.

Just a snowball. This is not political. I really don't know what any President could do about this in a free country, short of going to the extreme, as the Chinese eventually did and as Italy is now doing.

The panic by people is just so dumb. If you are under 80 and relatively healthy you have next to nothing to worry about.

The panic is only going to get worse, IMO. They are canceling things left and right.

Well, what do you know?

You all had better start listening to the people telling you this is a lot more dangerous than our normal flu.

Wasn’t he embalmed about 100 years ago?

It sure seems like it should be at least that long
