WOSgrad Posted September 1, 2020 Report Posted September 1, 2020 From Matt Stepp: And then there was this:
AggiesAreWe Posted September 1, 2020 Report Posted September 1, 2020 I watched a couple of games this past weekend. For the most part, no social distancing was being practiced and from some pics I saw from other games, stadiums (mostly small schools, 3A and below) had much more than 50% capacity.
Realville Posted September 1, 2020 Report Posted September 1, 2020 If the UIL is truly concerned what’s best for the people and athletes then they need to look at the data coming out of the CDC recently that tells a totally different story when it comes to this virus.
WOSgrad Posted September 1, 2020 Author Report Posted September 1, 2020 The moral of this story.....if you are fortunate enough to go to a game this weekend.......SPREAD OUT AND WEAR A DAMNED MASK!!! I know that there are many who think that this is being overblown and this is some vast government conspiracy to scare us into compliance. I don't care.....SPREAD OUT AND WEAR A DAMNED MASK!!! There are some who say that these rules don't consider the current science. I don't care.....SPREAD OUT AND WEAR A DAMNED MASK!!! I know that there are many who don't like masks because they are uncomfortable! I don't care......SPREAD OUT AND WEAR A DAMNED MASK!!! I can tell you that there are a number of UIL rules that many coaches don't agree with, they comply with them anyway because they know that they will face consequences if they don't. If the UIL is pushed to closing down sports, they will blame those of us who didn't comply with their guidelines. It won't be right....it may not even be true...but it will be what they do. Look, I am slated to broadcast the Lumberton/Coldspring game on Friday night. I plan on wearing a mask all throughout so I apologize in advance. If I can wear it for 3 hours, so can you.

NOPE i will never wear a mask because of covid. if YOU don't like it STAY HOME.

Agree 100% It doesn't matter what we think about the virus, we're not in charge. If we want football (and other sports) to keep going this year we're going to all have to follow the rules set in place whether we like it or not. exsoftballplayer, bayou city 713 and RealMcCoy 3

But it's a business, school, public and private entity to have the right to require a mask. No different than the "no shoes, no shirt, no service" policy.

But doesn't mean a school cannot require them to be worn for entry. If it's required to attend games, then one should wear a mask to attend. Otherwise, you can stay home. bayou city 713 1

navydawg31 Posted September 1, 2020 Report Posted September 1, 2020 If home team can not follow the rules and dictate how it’s suppose to go on that team should forfeit the game/lose privilege to host fans the next week/ or move next said home game to be played on the road. Can’t follow rules needs to be repercussions. Me personally turn that district win to a loss teams will take things very serious then Small schools going to mess up for 5A/6A... crazeddeer, Mr. Buddy Garrity and bayou city 713 3
WOSgrad Posted September 1, 2020 Author Report Posted September 1, 2020 Just a reminder, this mask rule that is in the UIL guideline is due to Governor Abbott's executive order. First event of failure is a warning, second is a $250 fine per subsequent offense. If I were a mayor in a town that one of these games were being played in, I would have the police chief have the department out IN FORCE at one of these games. A REAL good way to make up for some budget shortfalls. bayou city 713, crazeddeer and Mr. Buddy Garrity 2 1

Eazy Posted September 1, 2020 Report Posted September 1, 2020 UIL wants to make sure all the sheep stay in line for the fake pandemic that no one cares about anymore. The truth about this insanity will come out eventually. When does it end and who gets to decide that? I don’t wear a mask much past the gate, but I’m also not sick, nor do I sit within 15 feet of anybody else. CDC says I don’t have to wear a mask if I maintain distance. That said, I attended two games this weekend. And I do think the schools should be making a better effort to at least block off every other row or some other way to enforce distancing. Yes, I saw some enforcement at the gate but little in the stands. We all want football. exsoftballplayer 1
jdns Posted September 1, 2020 Report Posted September 1, 2020 If you do stay home be sure and tune into SETXSports.com or watch the game on TexanLive! I for one would like to see the entire season of all H.S. Sports! This week I would be listening to that East Chambers beat down of H.J. I heard that the broadcaster is pretty great! 9 out of 10 dentists agree 😜

Oh wait because of the virus people are being let out of jail instead of being given a mask to stay in jail. Good Grief! There wouldn’t be a budget short fall if our Weak Governor wouldn’t have lockdown the economy. Businesses and People’s livelihoods are dying everyday.

Sorry for your loss but the data doesn’t support the guidelines in place. I believe some people are finally coming to that realization, hence the people not following the guidelines. aTmfan06 1

But to be fair, when has 5A-6A ever cared even one tiny bit about the small schools? Oh they are happy to recuit someones star player, but beyond that, ZERO. Hence small Championship games at AT&T at 10 am Thursday morning, etc.

I posted a month or two ago about a terminally ill elderly person died in a nursing home. Weeks later the son notices "Covid related" written in as cause of death. Son inquires to nursing home "who did this and when was this diagnosis made"?". Nursing home has no answer or record to produce. FAKE NUMBERS!
