The Southeastern Conference (SEC) of college football is a mess with COVID positive tests right now. Games are being postponed and coaches and players are returning positive test results. Sadly, it had to happen. Football is an up-close and personal sport.
The latest headline is:
Alabama Coach Saban Tests Positive as Virus Disrupts SEC - The Wall Street Journal
There have been problems in the NFL as well.
With the infection rates across the country steadily rising, that we are having a football season is fantastic. but we need to recognize that football players have close personal contact with their teammates and opponents--it is part of the game, unless we go to a no blocking, flag-football approach.
The players are taking risks to play the game for our enjoyment and their financial reward--we need to remember that.
