so what happens to Science Hill / DB game? Will there be a Sectional game(s) Monday night?

Good luck with this. Needs some work. I tried to do it but gave up because I got sick and darn tired of the Call of Duty pop-up add on EVERY game selection.

Same here, and always will

I'm not going to get into an argument over semantics. I have much better things to do with my time. But to answer your questions yes....she had Covid and yes...she's now in the hospital.

The most recent update was they were UNSURE what caused her hospitalization, but think it could be a bounce back infection from when she had Covid a couple of weeks ago. So they have been treating her for Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C). She was placed on a ventilator for a day or so, but has since been removed. Obviously, prayers go to this family!!!!

Trying to decide with TSSAA is going to do when the TSSAA doesn't know what they are doing.....have fun with that!!!

Good deal!! And yeah....I took your comment wrong. When I first read it, it shocked me and I was unable to think about it from another angle. And yes....I agree 100% with you that there are higher-ups that view many of us as "expendable". Benghazi ring a bell???

Wow!! I had to re-read this several times to make sure you said what you said. To call someone "expendable" because of their current situation is extremely judgemental. What you may consider an "expendable" person could be a grandmother, or a father, etc. to someone else. Wow man.....can't believe you went there!!!

The thing is - with the Dead Period remaining - IF there are any kids on teams that should contract the virus, the dead period will give everyone a two week break to hopefully let everything calm down, reduce the spread, and allow the whole team to start / resume activity starting July 6th. Now, I know that is all under the assumption that kids and adults will do what they are supposed to and practice social distancing, etc

Motion fails. Dead period stays in place

Disagree. Most of these kids haven't been doing any type of structured workouts since school has been out. At most, may schools will get four weeks of conditioning / lifting before dead period begins. I think bringing these kids in and having them go full pads for 2-3 weeks would be recipe for injuries galore. My recommendation would be to use that time wisely and get the kids back in shape so that they can hit the ground running after dead period. Besides.....there are several teams that don't have spring ball and are quite successful.

I said the same thing to my wife last night. Hate it for the kids.

Check out this site. It should answer your question https://covidactnow.org/state/TN

Ya know....if that's the approach you wish to take, then that is certainly within your rights. But, I truly wish you and your family the best during these unprecedented times.

Not falling in mine either. Take the time to educate yourself....I did. Being willfully ignorant is no excuse

Greatly appreciate you for doing your part to help stop the spread and transmission of the coronavirus. I mean....after all.....a game is MUCH more important than some pandemic currently affecting the world!! Maybe, after the games are over, we can all pack into a local bar like sardines to celebrate our self importance!!!!

Soooo.....is this something you are just speculating about, or have actual knowledge? Reason why I say this is because their statement the other day saying it was individual schools/districts decision was one of the biggest BS / not my problem / pass the buck things I can recall ever seeing them do.

Blount Co still allowing athletics?

But now the CDC has issued a statement that recommends AGAINST gatherings of people 50 or more. It sucks for the kids....but it's a GAME. There's more important things in life than a darn GAME. And just FYI...I have worked in HS athletics for over 35 years...I "get it". But I also understand the bigger picture.

I don't think it will affect regular season football. I think as a whole, the over-reaction/hysteria will have passed, common sense will have prevailed and hopefully a cure/treatment will be in place. Now for the spring sports that just started, and spring football...that's the question that's on my mind right now.

Bert played at Tech....so makes sense that he wants to go back

you can take Pigeon Forge off this list.....unless Meadows has already left

FYP
