Tim Tebow Sounds Off on COVID-19 and Sports: 'I Find Myself Recording Every Old Game of Every Sport' by Madilyn Zeegerson September 7, 2020 COVID-19 has impacted everyone. Sports leagues have certainly taken a hit. Minor league baseball has been affected, along with former NFL-turned-baseball-player Tim Tebow. Tebow’s baseball season didn’t even begin. Now he’s like the rest of us, waiting for the sports world to resume. Here’s what Tebow had to say about sports in the time of COVID-19. How COVID-19 impacted Tim Tebow’s baseball career MLB had many tough decisions to make this year. First off, the season was reduced from 162 games to a paltry 60. They have a condensed schedule packed into two months of regular-season games with additional playoff teams added to October. One of the biggest cuts came to their minor league affiliate systems. The minor leagues had to shutter operations for 2020. That meant only a small percentage of minor leaguers were selected to play at alternate sites for each team in the event they had to be called up as replacements to the big league rosters. Tebow has been impressive in spurts during his time as a minor leaguer within the New York Mets organization, but his advanced age and late start in coming to professional baseball make him a long shot to make the Mets’ roster at any point. Predictably, according to Sports Illustrated, Tebow didn’t make the cut for the Mets player pool. That means he’s been significantly impacted by COVID-19 — but Tebow’s thoughts on sports in this climate go well beyond his own predicament. Tebow’s thoughts on the return of sports RELATED: How Much Money Did Tim Tebow Make in the NFL? Tebow gave an interview with WebMD to share his thoughts on the return of sports. The former quarterback first reflected on it from his perspective as a player regarding what it’d be like for teams lacking fans in the stands. He noted that sports like pro and college football may be a lot different, while sports like baseball might not see the same kind of effect: “…[T]here’s a huge difference playing in The Swamp at the University of Florida with 95,000 screaming Gator Nation Crazies versus having it empty … But I think when you talk about baseball … I don’t think it changes the sport that much. I think it’s a calmer, more relaxed, kind of grab-your-hot-dog-and-drink, enjoy the game, and still cheer.” Tim Tebow on COVID-19 Tebow also commented on his perspective as a spectator. He said that he found himself seeking out prerecorded events just to experience the thrill of watching sports again: https://profile.hatena.ne.jp/ramsvscowboysfans/profile

“But at the same time … I catch myself watching, like, 1997 Nebraska versus Missouri on TV and watching old games. And I’m taping everything.” His comment speaks to just how ingrained sports has become as part of modern society. Tebow thinks postponed sports will affect kids’ development Baseball player Tim Tebow Tim Tebow in 2019 | Rich Schultz/Getty Images RELATED: Tim Tebow Harshly Slammed the Jets Trade For Him Tebow was also asked about the impact sports has on kids, and he did not mince words. He thinks it’s an essential part of the fabric of society: “I’ve got to be honest, it’s huge. It’s huge as far as development, um, developing character qualities, developing skill sets, developing teamwork, developing camaraderie, um, developing a community. You know, I really believe we were made for a community. We need to be around people.” He also stressed the need for parents to get involved with their kids and bring sports to them if they can’t get to the sports themselves. In a time when nothing is normal, sports allows kids and their parents to feel a certain degree of normalcy. Tebow’s advocacy for them to continue pursuing competitive sports makes a lot of sense.

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. — The Houston Rockets overwhelmed the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday night with their speed in Game 1 of their second-round playoff series, so now it’s time to see if the Lakers will attempt to speed up and perhaps go to a small-ball lineup themselves. Lakers big man JaVale McGee got the usual start at center, but only played 12 minutes in the Rockets’ dominant 112-97 victory. And backup center Dwight Howard registered only 11 minutes, meaning a true center accounted for playing less than half the game. And that still might be too many center minutes in this series with the Rockets trotting out 6-foot-5 P.J. Tucker as their five man. Lakers star Anthony Davis is not fond of playing center, but he wouldn’t be going up against a traditional big in this matchup. Davis is willing to slide up from power forward in this series, league sources told Yahoo Sports. “We’ll look at the tape and we’ll see what approach we’re going to have for Game 2 and we’ll go from there,...

even Colvin could not have foreseen the shifting rules and the subsequent confusion that local health departments have caused. Widmaier said that during the summer, the U.S.T.A. had made it clear to players, their representatives and leaders of both the Association of Tennis Professionals and the Women’s Tennis Association, which represent players and the leaders of tennis tournaments, that players who tested positive would be withdrawn from the tournament and would have to go into quarantine in New York. Players who had come into contact with any player who tested positive would be subject to local health regulations, too. However, Widmaier said, the organization did not have a final plan for what would happen to players who continued to test negative after they had been exposed to players who tested positive. Also, while the U.S.T.A. worked closely with health officials in New York City and with Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, it did not work closely with officials in Nassau County, even tho...

Sports and the Virus

The U.S. Open Descends Into Pandemic Precaution Chaos Yet another change in rules for players who were exposed to a player who tested positive for coronavirus caused the top women’s doubles team to be defaulted. Kristina Mladenovic of France and her doubles partner were disqualified from the United States Open because of Mladenovic’s contact with a different player who had tested positive for the coronavirus.Credit...Seth Wenig/Associated Press By Matthew Futterman and Ben Rothenberg Sept. 5, 2020 For two weeks, all seemed well with the plan to hold the United States Open in New York just a few months after the city had become the epicenter for the coronavirus in the Western world. With a handful of notable exceptions, the best players in the world began arriving in mid-August, nearly all of them housed at a Long Island hotel, where they were supposed to comply with strict social distancing rules as they played a warm-up tournament and prepared to play the U.S. Open itself at the U.S...
