La Liga has been suspended 2 weeks after RM goes into self quarantine
3 Leicester players self-isolating after showing symptoms
Conference call Tuesday for Uefa to decide fate of all European competitions including Euro2020. With the international break in 2 weeks seems most leagues should suspend play and reevaluate in April. Cancel or postpone Euro 2020 and give leagues time to finish if they can.

Awesome for UEFA to act so decisively, by scheduling a conference call next week Tuesday.

Wow. So we have now suspended Serie A, La Liga, MLS, NBA, CBB Conf Tourneys....
I can't imagine MLB will start on time and the EPL and Bundasliga won't follow right behind.

Financially this is going to be a really hard gut punch for MLS (as it will be for many leagues) but they should be able to take a deep breath and move on.
I am significantly more worried about the USL. Those teams are just starting to turn the corner to become viable second division teams that can support themselves. This is going to much more difficult for them to push through.
I think you are starting to see safety in numbers - the NBA really made a statement by suspending their league. But, now other leagues can follow - even though these have to be enormously difficult decisions given the actual money involved v. potential coronavirus risk.

I only have another week of these stories to accumulate but office roomie Slovakian John is on the phone with somebody right now working on a shared worksheet and he's saying "like dis, like dis, like dis."
A worse person than me would shout "Goal" after the next set of them. Finger to anyone thinking "who's worse than you?"

Still waiting for the official statement from MLS but looks like Jorge Mas gave 30 days as a target.
=========================
@ChrisWittyngham
Inter Miami managing owner Jorge Mas addressing the media. “We’ve been in very close communication with commissioner (Don) Garber. We’ve made a decision as a league, as owners, that play will be suspended temporarily. The target on that is 30 days.”

It is ironic that the NFL, of all leagues, could with stand long term playing in empty stadiums as their game day revenue makes up only a small % of the total revenue, and yet things will hopefully be back to normal come the fall and they will be the only league that won't even have to deal with it.

Rumors that on Tuesday Uefa will announce Euro2020 will now be Euro2021

Everybody was kung-fu fighting
Those kicks were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit frightening
But they fought with expert timing
They were funky China men from funky Chinatown
They were chopping them up and they were chopping them down
It's an ancient Chinese art and everybody knew their part
From a feint into a slip, and kicking from the hip
Everybody was kung-fu fighting
Those kicks were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit frightening
But they fought with expert timing
There was funky Billy Chin and little Sammy Chung
He said here comes the big boss, let's get it on
We took a bow and made a stand, started swinging with the hand
The sudden motion made me skip now we're into a brand knew trip
Everybody was kung-fu fighting
Those kicks were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit frightening
But they did it with expert timing
Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on
Everybody was kung-fu fighting
Those kicks were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit frightening
Make sure you have expert timing
Kung-fu fighting, had to be fast as lightning
Keep on, keep on, keep on

On the week that Max von Sydow dies, it is our duty as citizens of the world to make every possible [Escape to] Victory reference.

This all ends with everyone watching only FIFA Career Mode videos on YouTube.

Driving my son and his buddy to school this morning and they were going on and on about all their plans for the impending lockdown (all video-game based), I silenced the car by suggesting Covid-19 would almost certainly take out the internet. Of course that makes no sense, but they bought it. Being a dad can be so much fun at times.

I think if by some miracle, MLS and USL start back up again this summer, the US Open Cup is going to be cancelled for the entire year. I think every spare date is going to be needed for league games.

I posted this in the game day thread but it is so interesting I want to cross post so that every one can see it

The DFL and DFB are considering ending the Bundesliga season after this weekend, according to the Express. No trophy would be awarded and no relegation would take place. Instead, the Bundesliga would be expanded to 22 teams for 2020-21 with the top four teams from the second tier

Oh the irony.......................... 
I have a feeling the soccer world is going to need the extra 6 months granted because of the December WC in Qatar (a time frame that no one wanted), to get WC qualifying completed.

I’d feel a little bad about screwing LFC out of the trophy, but if it brings me Leeds and Bielsa to the Premiere League, sign new up.
