Unnamed MLB Player Says “Horny Dudes on the Road” Are What’s Going to End the Season

The MLB season is officially here, but for how long?

The Yankees are taking on the Nationals in Washington tonight to open the pandemic shortened 60 game season.  There are a lot of safety and testing protocols in place and there won't be fans in the stands, at least not at the start of the season.

The season will last for as long as an outbreak among players can be contained.

An unnamed player, who spoke to ESPN's Jeff Passan, knows how it could all come to an end, "I honestly think horny dudes on the road are what's going to bring this down."

From ESPN:

What are players' biggest concerns as they start traveling?

Well, there are the plane rides, the hotel stays, the bus trips -- all of the extra points of contact that traveling entails. There are also trips into cities where the coronavirus is far more present.

Those are all macro issues. Players tend to believe the micro is a far trickier impediment, with one saying: "I honestly think horny dudes on the road are what's going to bring this down."

So the biggest threat to the 2020 baseball season is thirst?

You said it, not me.

I love that both the NBA and MLB seasons are hanging on how well horny dudes can control themselves.  If we've learned anything about horny dudes it's that they can't control themselves.

Enjoy the live sports before horny dudes ruin it!
