As the coronavirus pandemic grips the world, the shutdown of sport has left armchair fans across the planet with nothing to watch, nothing to bond over and nothing to debate around the dinner table.
Competitions and events began shutting down just a few weeks after COVID-19 reared its head, when China revealed there was a legitimate outbreak and serious cause for concern.
That triggered a chain reaction that's taken us to a life almost completely devoid of anything resembling sport - and you get the sense there's worse to come.
