Wonder what kind of impact this will have on the high school season? We know the NFL is going to play as those owners are dependent on the league for their income.

The good news is if you don't play football you are immune from the virus.
Millions have been forced to hunker down in their homes, lose their livelihoods, yet the virus persists. The notion that cancelling everything will "flatten the curve" has proven to be false, but let's keep trying it anyway.

Are you denying significant numbers of 20 - 29 y.o.'s are coming down with serious cases of covid?

"
Whether they contracted the virus among the snow-capped peaks of the Alps or in the heart of the outbreak in New York City's borough of Queens, some 20-somethings are getting sick from Covid-19. And staying sick.
Their stories are a warning from millennials to millennials: Don't play the odds with coronavirus because this disease could permanently damage your body."

I think we are saying these cases are the exception, not the rule.
Tell me this, how are students at OSU, not in the exact same situation? Why aren't they cancelling all in person classes?
In no way am I not taking this serious, I have a very high risk child, we take the proper precautions for our family....which is what everyone else should be doing. Protect the most vulnerable, everyone else get out there...wear masks, socially distance and live your lives.

That's a slightly less gung-ho position. Of course, many football, baseball and basketball players have become infected. In fact, at least one (Cardinals player) has to sit out the season because of a heart issue caused by covid.
Whenever we think we have the demographics or logistics figured out, covid finds a way to cause significant doubt. This is a brand new, highly contagious and potentially fatal disease. Not a single game of football has been played during the pandemic. It could be that if CF were to be played this fall, only a few players in the whole country would get just mildly sick. Or there could be deaths and "long haul" cases.
Same with students returning to classes, although it will be easier to make distancing accommodations for them, and there cannot be distancing while playing football. Campus life will be very strictly limited this this fall. For instance, in California, there will be no indoor lectures in the 38 counties on their covid-19 monitoring list.
It seems like some folks are too anxious to send the already-exploited players into harm's way so they can have 3.5 hours per week of a diversion while watching safely from their home.
