Quote:PITTSBURGH — When it comes to sports, Pennsylvania guidance is that they shouldn’t be played until Jan. 1, Gov. Tom Wolf said Thursday.

Wolf’s latest remark about sports in Pennsylvania comes after he said Monday that if students aren’t physically in class, there shouldn’t be any sports.

While the governor’s statement on Monday wasn’t a formal announcement, it raises a lot of questions for school districts in western Pennsylvania as they finalize back-to-school plans amid the coronavirus pandemic.  Some districts are offering options for online, in-person or hybrid learning

During a news briefing Monday, Wolf said what happens in school should be consistent with what happens on the playing fields.  “In other words, if the school is going completely virtual, seems hard to justify having in-person contact sports being played in the fall,” Wolf said.

A Pittsburgh Public Schools spokesperson said a decision about athletics has yet to be made.

“I think I’m trying to allow for different situations in different parts of the state because we do have some diversity in that their sports decisions and their education decisions are going to be governed by what’s going on locally,” Wolf said.

WPIAL officials had questions about what Wolf said Monday.

“I think it’s a huge impact for all the districts and, hopefully, that decision will be changed and left more up to the individual school districts instead of a blanket statement for the entire state in regards to online learning,” WPIAL executive director Amy Scheuneman said.

ENOUGH!!!

Because I'm hoping people are smart enough to get him the hell out of here and not dumb enough to vote and back in again and ruin us a second time.
