No, it's a rational sensible response.

Hey, if golf didn’t work...Postponing baseball season would be a mistake. It's our one chance to bore the virus to death.

The SEC has also now suspended all games.

DEVELOPING: SEC extends suspension date, NCAA may grant extra eligibility
With a constant stream of new developments in response to public health concerns related to the coronavirus, TexAgs is tracking the major storylines in this updating story.
I'm seeing all the Big East games as cancelledYeah it’s all tournaments except for some reason the Big East, who just tipped off like 30min ago
youre right, they cancelled it at halftime of Creighton/St. John's. at least they came to their senses, albeit late.
NHL and MLB suspended seasons/spring training are confirmed now as well.
Went to Costco. All I wanted was a bag of rice and some powdered milk. We don't drink milk enough to make buying it economical, but we use it often enough that we have to have it, and fresh milk goes bad before we use it up.
Should have gone 2 days ago, before the president's announcement. It was a freaking madhouse.
There were no...zero...none carts. I had to get one from the parking lot.
Inside, it was like a Black Friday event had just happened. There were packages broken open and strewn about the floor. Dozens of abandoned carts with goods inside of them where people just gave up. Lots of Costco employees restocking shelves and bitching about the abandoned product. Every person I saw--every single one--had toilet paper in their cart. Some of them, that's all they were buying. I may or may not have accidentally laughed out loud at some of them.

I am getting low on toilet paper. The last mega-pack I bought has lasted over a year. Now I am too ashamed to buy some during this panic.

Looks like we're going back to good ol' fashioned corn cobs and pine cones.
Coronavirus seeks out the elderly. It's immune to boredom!Postponing baseball season would be a mistake. It's our one chance to bore the virus to death.
I’m also hearing it referred to as “March Sadness.”
Thank goodness we don’t need emergency bridge repair to get out of the way of a comet or something!
(also if this don’t show where their priorities lie, well..what more evidence do you need???)

Those are both closer to just using toilet paper than a bidet is.Looks like we're going back to good ol' fashioned corn cobs and pine cones.
If you were changing a babies diaper and got shit on your arm or cleaning up after your dog and didn't notice a hole in your waste bag before you picked it up, would you feel clean if you just wiped it off with a dry paper towel?

The Senate wants to go on recess for a week, and deal with the pandemic after they've had their break.
see that jump right around 1pm? That was when the $1.5T injection was announced. Lasted a whole 30-40 minutes.
$1.5T incidentally is the estimated total of outstanding student debt. But wherever would we get the money to take care of that?
Yes, but It’s not like canceling student debt would actually help the economy or anything. And besides, it’s not the government‘s responsibility to bail out a bunch of people who made poor financial decisions, right?
Sure, but if you knew those 20min were coming, think of what you could do with that knowledge.
