The home of the Sacramento Kings Golden One Center has sat dark since the NBA suspended the season due to Covid 19 pandemic.

On Headline Sports podcast with London:

#1 The impact that the necessary shelter in place has equated  a down economy in downtown Sacramento home of the Sacramento Kings is virtually a ghost town with very few office people going out for lunch and mostly working from home. Shelter in place is a great idea and hopefully it’ll flatten the curve but it will take downtown Sacramento at least two years to come back from all of this.

#2 Taking a look back in San Francisco Giants history former Giant outfielder Barry Bonds slugged two home runs on opening day of 2002 at Dodger Stadium after hitting 73 home runs in 2001 which set the MLB season mark for homers. Still historians say those are tainted records and Bonds admits he’s like a ghost in a big house that can’t win enough votes to get into the Hall of Fame.

#3 In the Bay Area local park offiicals have closed parks and playgrounds due to the social distancing policy. While officials got to the point saying people were not keeping their distance this will have to be the new normal for school kids who can’t go out play and exercise.

#4 Skiing is out of he question at any rate as the Nevada/California snow pack is at it’s 11th place lowest in the 71 year recorded history. Registering at 53% for this year’s snow fall.

#5 The San Francisco Giants are kicking in another $700,000 on top of the $1 million they will pay out to their game day employees who can also take unemployment during this time. Team president Larry Baer said the team plans to up the ante later on.
