If you want to watch the NBA then turn on your TV, radio or social media device now. Because the 2019-2020 season has been suspended after Rudy Gobert, center for the Utah Jazz, tested positive for the Coronavirus.
Given this unprecedented measure one wonders if the NHL and/or MLB will follow suit. The NHL, like the NBA, is in the middle of its season while MLB is in the midst of spring training with the regular season set to begin on March 26th. But with the Seattle Mariners' status already uncertain with Washington Governor Jay Inslee banning gatherings of 250 or more people one wonders if MLB will embark upon a hiatus of its own.
Sport is usually a welcome distraction in times of trouble. But this might not be an option. In which case people will have be content to binge watch their favorite TV shows and movies. Some of those movies might star Tom Hanks. Today, Hanks announced that he and his wife Rita Wilson have been diagnosed with the Coronavirus while traveling in Australia. Hopefully they were diagnosed early enough to make a full recovery.
It's bad enough there will be no more NBA, but Tom Hanks has the Coronavirus. It's a mad, mad, mad world and the madness has only just begun.
