I 1000% agree that there are some real effects of lockdowns that we are going to have to contend with-particularly when it comes to the high risk kids that you speak of. However, more people have died from COVID in the US than died in WW2...that’s the kind of death toll we are looking at here, so imagine what it could have been had we not mitigated (or how much loss we could have prevented if we had handled it better).
 
The high risk kids you speak of are also the kids most likely to be living with grandparents/extended family.  While the virus may not have a lot of impact on kids physiologically-if they carry it home to the highest risk category...things could have been brutal.  Just think back to December when hundreds of people were dying/hospitalized in our rural area and our hospitals were stressed to the maximum. 
 
Anyway, to get back on track, I’m sick for Burton’s kids-absolutely heartbreaking for them, but it was a possibility for every team that played this season-like someone said above...along the lines of Russian roulette. 

Kids-meaning 12 and under...not virtual adults like what are in a high school football locker room.  The science is pretty clear that it spreads the quickest in low ventilated areas that are tightly populated. I would agree that on the field it isn’t very likely to spread, but in a locker room is a completely different story. 
 
Also, while I am very sad for our kids-this idea of “they have been robbed of so much” is not in line with the messaging that we usually provide to our youth. We tell them that they aren’t promised tomorrow and that they have to be able to handle adversity, but then we lose our minds and claim it will scar them for life because they miss a season of a high school sport, or a year of school?!? Some perspective is probably in order here. 
 

Hazard, KY would disagree with you-it spreads very quickly and easily in a locker room enclosed environment

Not sure about anything else but this ending was definitely scoutable 

To be fair, Thomas Chambliss Williams was a pretty despicable human being. He even went so far as to ensure the use of “Eminent Domain” displaced only black families in order to build a new high school.....that would ultimately bear his name!

And there's STILL a LOT of those "not a good person" types around.

In my opinion, high school students should be off limits for criticism by name.  
 
Critique the coaches who choose the depth chart-they get paid for that job.  A kid who is doing his or her best should not be subjected to the same standard as a paid employee.

You are likely the parent/relative of one of the backup QBs....but if you aren’t, then you seriously need to re-evaluate your priorities in life.

What is wrong with pointing out that a player is not very good in the poster's opinion? There is nothing bashing about that. As long as negative evaluations are about football and competency in that area I see nothing wrong with giving a player a negative evaluation. Just be decent about it.
