    I am not on the Ann Arbor campus but I teach. Or try to. Let's leave it there. My kid, however, is currently in the Law School, hunkering down in the dorms.

    The NBA had Dawkins removed from YouTube and he's wheedling to be reinstated, saying he's got Terabytes of classic games that he could show while the NBA is shut down. Seriously: they should hire people like you to do that for NBA.com.

    well then, you're kind of screwed....sorry man. I spent 35 years self-employed as a construction contractor, mostly remodeling, and when I didn't have work my cash flow was only one-way, and that was outward bound. The jerks I owed money weren't patient, and the bills kept arriving. And my son ate like three damn horses working 20 hour days

    Yeah count my sentiments as well.
    You and I haven't conversed much, but I'm aware of your presence..
    Mark Cuban stated he's gonna find a way to take care of his organization..perhaps, once he figures out how to keep his people paid Jody will follow suit?
    Hope so.

    Right, because a whole season isn’t really long enough to do that.

    ...that better be a GIANT fund for the millions about to be in your same shoes! Maybe we can develop SUPPORTFAMS.ORG and get some marquee celebs to jumpstart the funds and brand recognition? :dunno:

    Interesting. If that’s the case, the Blazers have played their last game, because they won’t be in the playoffs.

    What a Chaos holy shit. All soccer leagues in Europe have been postponed for weeks, Formula 1 has been postponed, the season now is expected to begin in late May. All schools and Kindergarden have been closed for weeks, companys closed. Stores will close. People acting crazy and buy everything. Everything what happens here right now will also happen in america. And it's gonna get worse

    I don't think the season can be saved.

    If games are played without fans (if necessary) and players can be tested for coronavirus it seems to me they could still finish the season. There should be plenty of people at home able to watch the games. Maybe they could make league pass available to everyone too.
