No announcement yet for stadium capacity. I'm guessing they will start small, 35 % of all seats. It's just my guess and opinion. So, a stadium that holds 100k will have 35k. Maybe, I will say again, maybe they will increase it to 50 % if things get better half way through the season. For HS football, I feel it's going to be a real bad season for most schools. The school district's will most likely loose lots of that revenue between tickets and concession stands. I even fee some l schools might drop the schedule this year. It's just too much to weigh as of now. The liability is a concern.
OK, if you are giving your opinion, I'm going to give mine. I think they should let whoever wants to play, play. Whoever doesn't want to play, not play. Whoever wants to watch, let them go watch. Whoever doesn't want to go. not go. The initial shutdown was to flatten the curve. It was flattened. They know how to treat this. They have the resources. They just laid off 250 people from Mt Nittany Hospital. They have room for patients if needed. Just quit telling other people how to live. I don't believe this hype. You can. Ok. But I don't. Let people live and let live. Quit telling us what to do. If your scared, ok, hide. I don't care if you do. Why do you care if other people want to do as they wish? You could be right, I could be right. Just let it go. If it makes you feel better, we can give trophies to the people who didn't want to play so they don't feel left out. Will that help? Let the warriors compete. And the fans watch. Just my thoughts. You're entitled to yours.

WTF was this nonsense? Forum Titan gave his opinion of how he thought the people in control of football were going to react, not a mandate to anyone about anything.
You in turn went on some ridiculous diatribe accusing him, or someone, of telling everyone what to do and living in fear. Were you even responding to him or just howling at the moon?
Less than a half % get really sick and die from the coronavirus so there’s really not anything to be scared about unless you are elderly or have pre-existing conditions health problems. We’ve made this bed baby and now we have to lay in it. Protect the people that need protection and we’ll get through this crap that we caused. There comes a time when you have to look in the mirror and say this is part my fault and just deal with it! This ole boy won’t vote for anybody that kisses the @$$ of China anymore!

While saying it that way doesn't sound bad, a half % represents 1.6 million people in the USA.
The power of language... If everyone got it, "Only a half a percent will be affected" sounds a lot better than "1.6 million americans will die"
It doesn't matter how we "Slice and Dice" the reports and numbers, the fact is we got to get this way down sooner than later. With two straight days of 40K new cases, we will be lucky to see football at all by September. Social distancing and wearing masks was working! If everyone would have worn a mask since this thing broke wide open in March, we would just about be done with it today! They are learning more and more about this virus every single day. I saw one Doc estimate that apprx 20 million Americans probably have this thing if they could test everyone all at once. 125K deaths in 4 months is nothing to sneeze at. That is twice as many as in 4 months than the common flu had back in all of 2018 which was by far one of the worse years for the common flu.
I am not some one that get's spooked easily, and I am BY FAR the biggest eternal optimist you will ever meet. This Virus has me in check and and I am not afraid to admit it!! Maybe it's my age ( late 50's) and maybe it's because I just don't feel like getting sick with this at any level. No matter what, as long as people are lazy and and take the attitude that nobody will tell them what to do, we will be watching more people die and more PSU re-runs on TV.
I have been working out trying to get back in shape. I keep telling myself, you can do anything for one hour day if it will help extend your life. I am now saying, what is 90 days out of your life if it will give EVERYONE a chance to extend their life longer! Wear a mask!
GO STATE! Be SAFE!!
i’m 52 brother and I get on the bow flex every morning hard for 30 minutes. I use to do an hour until I put new shocks on it lol
thats exactly the way I’m looking at it Ompa1. I believe most people have had it or has it now. Deaths of our loved ones is way down. Hopefully we get a vaccine soon and we can get back at it full blast and take care of these scumbags destroying the country. I’m more worried about these scumbags than I am the virus.
oh I agree roam that’s why i said we have to protect our elderly and people with health issues.

Hi SPF, Gotta respond to your last sentence. I guess your not voting for Trump then as he kissed China’s ass numerous times publicly about how they handled the situation.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.politico.com/amp/news/2020/04/15/trump-china-coronavirus-188736
And, don’t forget his compliments to the Chinese communist leader for implementing more term limits for himself. “He’s now President for life. And he’s great” Trump said.
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.politico.com/amp/news/2020/04/15/trump-china-coronavirus-188736
And Trump has a potentially flawed trade deal with China that won’t have China holding up their end of the deal.
https://www.google.com/amp/s/mobile.reuters.com/article/amp/idUSKBN238219
So, SPF, he’s sold us out to China, Russia, and North Korea with all three country’s dangerous leaders playing him like a fiddle. All the while snubbing his nose at some of our most loyal allies in Germany, Italy, Britain, and Canada. I guess your not casting your vote for 4 more years of that, are you?
And the cherry on top. Accusations from someone within the Trump cabinet that he asked China for help getting re-elected.
Chinese virus? Who else has the ball to say that? Trump has been tougher on China and Russia than all the US presidents combined 99 China even sent a deadly virus out because he was destroying their economy. NKOR is a light weight so I won’t even go there. John Bolton is war hungry and always has been and he didn’t get what he wanted so he’s crying out like a little baby. Maybe you like what’s going on in Washington State and Minnesota with the lawlessness from democrats my own party but I don’t so yes I will vote for Trump because he believes in the law plus I want all of my money back that I’ve lost in the stock market. All the democrats are good for today is keep republicans from stealing everything and I have proof just look at NY, California, Illinois and Michigan all these state are in big trouble with debt. BTW brother I voted for Clinton 2 times, Al Gore and Obama the first time I sat home the 2nd time...just saying

Oh and don't forget, you are also a closet Alabama fan baby!!!! LMFAO!!!
Please, elaborate on how Trump has been tough on China? Sanctions? Nope. Tariffs-what did that accomplish? China has played him like a fool. Same with Russia. How has he been tough on Russia? Convince me. Give me proof. Sanctions? Nope. And just yesterday this came out.
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/jun/27/russia-offered-bounty-to-kill-uk-soldiers
If that had happened anytime under Obama, Fox News, Breitbart, and The Blaze would be melting down. Where’s the Republican leadership to question this? Where’s Moscow Mitch? Crickets. Where’s loud mouth nutjob Rand Paul? Crickets. Trump got played by Putin also.
I don’t condone violence and looting. It’s horrible and should not be tolerated. But to blame the democrats for all of it is naive. You blame Antifa because that’s what Trump told you and you drank it up and asked for more. Look up the Boogaloo Bois. Several have been arrested for inciting violence at protests. You accused the mayor of Minnesota of lying about the violent protestors. These are the types of people he was referring too. Far right, alt right antigovernment militia types. If you don’t want to acknowledge more than one side of an issue, that’s up to you.
If your concerned about debt, Trump is NOT a fiscal conservative. He has added boatloads to the debt.
You won’t find this info on Fox News or Trump’s tweets. It doesn’t follow their narrative.
Of course Trump has been tougher on China and Russia... Just ask Trump he'll tell ya!
He'll also tell ya how he's done more for black people than Abe Lincoln... not kidding either, he's said it multiple times.
LMAO
Yeah, anybody that ends sentences with “believe me” is lying though their teeth. I don’t understand how people can’t see through all of this. He’s a used car salesman. Actually, my apologies to used car salesmen. They have more integrity and character than he does. He’s a despicable human being. Did you see the tweet he sent out this morning, with the guy riding a golf cart displaying Trump signs and he says White Power loud enough to be heard. WTF is wrong with people? He’s set this country back at least 60 years in race relations. How can anybody who claims to have any integrity or religion support this behavior and not feel shameful? Does he think this is reality tv?

Do you know where the phrase, “Make _____ Great Again” came from?
https://paleofuture.gizmodo.com/yes-adolf-hitler-really-said-he-would-make-germany-gre-1789261081
#sad. You can’t make this stuff up. It’s mind boggling how many blind sheep there are out there. As a friend of mine says, history repeats itself. A second term for this deranged human being would be devastating.
And for the record. This announcement from PSU came out last week about this year’s attendance.
Not sure who’s full of hot air more..Trump or BANK ON IT!?
lol, race relations in this country are just fine and are better than they ever have been. Trump will get re-elected again and he will get more black votes than any other republican president has just wait and see also it not the presidents job to help blacks it’s his job to put everybody in position to get a job and it’s up to us to take advantage of his work and IMO trump has done a fantastic job because blacks are doing better today than any time in our history and that’s just the facts. It’s funny that most of the problems that blacks have are in democrat districts especially with the police but I guess you want to blame trump for that too? 99, stop listening to whoever you’re listening to and just look around and see the lives that 90% of us are living and you’ll see we are spoiled F’g rotten compared to most of the world. Everybody wants to come to the great ole USA but nobody wants to leave and that’s the facts so don’t let the truth get in the way. Life is great baby count your blessings! Please excuse my French I got a little excited 😜
BTW 99, if you want to say we are living a great life but more work needs to be done I’m with you 100%. Remember before the USA come a long only dictators and tyrants run everything but we put a stop to that chit and made life good for most of the world.
