They should just cancel all League seasons jare.

3 Cologne players just tested positive. That means Bundesliga restart just cannot happen anytime soon.

A player in Ligue 1 is in coma with Covid. Dybala is still positive 6 weeks later and said to be struggling with his lungs. He cannot get back to fitness anytime soon. Meanwhile De Ligt has been allowed to go home to Holland which will take 4 weeks before he is allowed to come out of Quarantine if he does return.

Any player that catches Covid on restart will just delay things, and if anyone dies or gets debilitating conditions, litigation will ensue

Dutch league, French and Belgian leagues are cancelled. I don't see how clubs from those countries can participate in UCL or Europa

EPL talking about playing in only 10 stadiums with tens of thousands of test kits required and training looking like a logistical nightmare. Even FA is saying they won't allow players to touch each other at corners and setplays etc and balls will have to be disinfected 4 times a match.

Then you have some players complaining that they also have families, children and parents and are scared.

Summary of all this, is they should just cancel the season.
PSG have been awarded the league.

There will be no perfect scenario or solution for this thing. I'm all for any scenario that will see seasons conclude one way or another.

It was mostly Phil if you ask me. When Krause brought Phil in from the CBA I think, he was hired as an assistant and he spent more time with Tex Winter who is the originator of the triangle offense. Tex was acknowledged as one of the best offensive brains in basketball at that time and was a technical staff under Doug Collins. Tex tried to sell the triangle offense to Doug severally but Doug was having none of it because like you said and we all know, they had the GOAT on the roster, so it was easy to just pass the ball to MJ and make sure he had the last shot.

Phil comes in as an assistant and is spending a lot of time with Tex talking about the triangle offense which Phil had never heard about. Phil bought the idea after several months of understudying and learning the specifics with Tex. When Doug was fired and Phil hired, Phil introduced the Triangle to MJ and the team. MJ alluded that it was tough but he knew it was best for the team if the ball moved around. That was how Pippen blew up as he had more touches and with MJ supporting him, he felt more comfortable.

They were making progress but could not get over the hump with Doug because the Pistons knew they had to roughen up the Bulls and make sure Michael is all they worried about. All of that changed with Phil. Phil made the Pistons worry about more than just MJ, also, Phil convinced MJ to bulk up and man did he become immovable after he bulked up.
I think I would have agreed entirely if the Bulls were not winning while Scottie Pippen was in his prime. Then we can solely say the Triangle and Phil Jackson was the sole reason for the Bulls to become dominant.

Remember Pippen was drafted 87 season. 87/88 was his rookie year, 88/89 they made conference finals while Pippen was still an average Joe. And lost to the Pistons who were far and away the best in the league. In fact they were the only team that avoided a sweep

How much credit is due to the Triangle and Phil Jackson vs how much credit is due to the maturation of Scottie Pippen and the Bulls will forever be moot

Of course they beat an up and coming MJ but once he had a decent squad. It was a sweep!!! And they never recovered.

Their is nothing Don about Sergio Ramos when it comes to his defensive ability. One of the most overrated player I have ever seen who has whitewashed his reputation because of couple goals he scored in champions league finals. The Sergio Ramos i watch week in week out is a wack defender and a clown.
You think an overrated player can survive 14 years at the highest level for Spain and Madrid winning individual and collective trophies.

Their is nothing great about Ramos defensive ability. His accolades has made him more glorified than his actual ability as spillo pointed out before. Judging Ramos purely on his defensive ability he is wack and not better off than David Luiz or any other error prone defender out there. Most carded player in the history of la liga, Real Madrid, El classico ,Spainish national team, Champions league and the entire of Europe's major leagues. You can't be shitting on other defenders and go ahead to name Ramos as a great defender. That's an Error.
Lool go and watch Euro 2012 Final and see how Ramos pocketed Balotelli after he destroyed Germany in the semifinals

What is this ungodly Ramos slander? Show me one big CL or Spanish NT game where Ramos has cost his team victory

Imagine comparing Don Sergio to a circus like David Luiz. Blasphemous. Like Stephen A Smith would say

If I were to be a medical doctor or health worker na "Young shall grow motors" night bus me sef go enter commot Kano at this critical moment.

I hate nonesense. How can I be endangering my life for people who don't want to be saved? Their governor and political class keep playing politics with the virus, the citizens will not stay indoors but rather pray in hundreds in mosques everyday and somebody expects the doctors to be the heroes. It won't happen.

Prior to recording their index case Ganduje was smiling all about posing for the Camera in the isolation centre claiming they are more than prepared. Now less than 2 weeks of recording their index case they are already losing the battle and asking federal government for 15 billion.

In fact if I be doctor for federal government hospital in Abuja and other states and I was transferred to Kano sef at this time I will resign and wait till after pandemic and travel out of the country. Those people's refusal to ditch their age-long cultural and religious practices will endanger the lives of health workers
That Kano and Kaduna axis the problem brewing there ehn. Anyway this is Nigeria we no too value human life like that.

You will hear stuff like only 200 people died not 300. And nobody wants to find out what killed them.

If I were a medical personnel I go japa from that axis faster than you can say Gandollars

Rolling with the 90s bulls and MJ will bring out every insecurity and self doubt you have. Even just from the interviews you can tell Krause had a self esteem problem. That shot at Phil was more fear than stupidity - how will you fire a coach that goes 82-0? Because he has threatened your sense of self worth.

You know whats sad? The man is dead and he is still getting no love - pride does a different level of damage to people. I should add that I feel some type of way about bagging on a man who cant respond. It would have been nice to get his perspective 2 decades later
The man went out of his way to antagonize this team. It's hard to feel sorry for him when he constantly tries to hog the spotlight to himself.

I am not really a fan of canonizing someone just cause they are late. Nobody is labelling him an evil person or accusing him of a criminal offense. However a lot of people didn't know just how big of a role he played in dismantling that team. Nothing wrong in highlighting this

Jerry Krause desperately wanted to be a part of the inner caucus. He felt threatened by Phil's popularity and how close he had gotten with MJ/Pippen/Rodman. I can't understand for the life of me why he would rock the boat in the middle of the season by saying Phil will not return the following season. I mean, he could have waited until the end of the season and that just backfired because Michael is as loyal as they come. This man would have been celebrated today if he did not get jealous. I mean, he got Phil, saw the potential in Pippen, and was the brain behind bringing Rodman from the Spurs but got overzealous.
Jerry Krause suffered Napoleon complex. And worse still was backed an opportunistic owner who stumbled on an all-time great. Whose basketball ability raised the value of his ball club by at least ten fold.

I don't quite understand why a GM was so eager to hog the spotlight and so anxious to rock the boat and try to fix what was not broke. I look at a team like the Spurs. Who is RC Buford? Most people don't know.

This is not baseball or American football. Your success is heavily reliant on players yet the owner and GM insisted on underpaying them despite bringing you 6 titles in 12 seasons

Roland17:
Don't forget, transitioning from Doug Collins to Phil was not easy for MJ. Under Doug, Michael had the ball most times. The ball always found a way to Michael and that was Doug's strategy but Phil came in with the triangle which basically moved the ball around, meaning MJ was having fewer touches and his PPG dropped but he understood it was the best for the team and bought in.
I think it was part Phil and part Doug. I don't believe Phil would have done anything were he Bulls coach between 84 and 88. They were a terrible squad.

Doug had already reached the ECF before Phil became head coach. They were certainly making progress. Bear in mind they were the only team that beat the Pistons in 88/89. They swept everyone else

Lysol, Dettol Warn Against Using Disinfectants to Treat Coronavirus

Lysol and Dettol maker Reckitt Benckiser Plc has stated that “under no circumstance” should its disinfectant products be administered into the human body, through injection, ingestion or any other route.


The company issued the advice on Friday morning, after being asked whether internal administration of disinfectants “may be appropriate for investigation or use as a treatment for coronavirus”, amid recent speculation and social media activity.

On Thursday U.S. President Donald Trump had expressed interest in research presented by Bill Bryan, an undersecretary at the Department of Homeland Security on whether exposure to humidity or heat kills the virus at a faster pace. Trump had also mentioned the potential use of disinfectant for the coronavirus.
