I hate to admit it, but Covid lockdowns, closures, mask, social distancing, etc, etc, is getting depressing.   My wife & I both.   I’m sure we’re not unique, but few will admit it.   One of my grandsons was confirmed Wednesday.   Restrictions on attendance, parents, siblings, and sponsors only.   Had to watch it on livestream.   

I’m older than dirt.  Shame to spend my final years like this.

I'm with you, been watching it online or listening on the radio. Miserable about it honestly. I need to get out of the house.

Sure.   And I hope no one misinterpreted about my depression.  I’m not about to slit my wrist, it’s just feels like we’re in a pen like cattle.  For 75 years, I roamed free.  Now, it doesn’t feel free.

The open range has been closed for the old codgers like you and me. Just hope it's not permanent.

Maybe one day we will be able to watch a basketball game together again.  Wild, crazy notion.

      are you suggesting that if the football coach runs spring drills then the kids won't play fall ball without supervision?  Because if not, this argument has no relevance.  One doesn't take the place of the other.  one the AD has control of, the other he just tries to.

      I don't think it is overly hyped.. I am seeing less and less multi-sport kids when it can all be prevented.. A coach teaches l loyalty, work ethic, comradery, integrity, perseverance, etc.. to get kids to buy into their program. They talk about brotherhood and doing what is best for their community.... But some mean all of this  just for football... Kids see into this double standard and will quit.. either while on the field or off...  drives me crazy!!  and again... I work with these kids.. they tell me what they think.. so you can agree or disagree.. its their point of view!!

      Hmm..... I tend to disagree. I was a multi sport athlete in High School and am now a coach. Kid is not going to be a very good hitter if he only hits in the spring and summer, I took BP and threw (to keep my arm in shape) during football and basketball season. Kid is not going to be a very good QB, WR or DB if he only throws passes, runs routes or covers receivers in the fall or during a few 7 on 7 games after baseball is over. And a kid is never going to be good shooter of the basketball if he only shoots during the basketball season. Skills are honed, not mastered, they need to be developed and practiced repeatedly.

      and I'll concede that this is more realistic.  but a good AD can make football the primary focus without messing with the success of other sports.
