Why Hasn't Anyone Talked About-A Possible Cancellation?

I just don't see the NFL taking the risk of putting any amount of people in the stands.

I think they delay the start of the season to Oct 1st, and then implement caps on attendance. I doubt they close the stands completely. Preseason in September will likely be played in front of empty stadiums though (not that that is anything new)

When deaths fall in late August it will not be because the virus has gone away, it will be because social distancing, by means of keeping everyone in doors, has worked. But if you let everyone go back outside, even wearing face masks, the virus is still out there ready to infect. That is why "reopening" would require an extremely thorough testing system to make sure that exposure to the virus is very, very limited. I do no see how the NFL with all the sweat, blood and other bodily fluids that are exchanged on almost every play can go forward without endangering the players unless every player is tested the morning of every game and only those who test clean can play.

That is why i don't think that Pro Sports in any format will ever come back until there is a vaccine. But the vaccine is a slippery slope as well. Just like people who don't get flu vaccines, there are bound to be people who won't want to get Covid vaccines. Due to the current crisis, could the government mandate inoculations of all people, is that even legal / constitutional?

Not only that but baseball is discussing playing their games in Arizona. Hockey is talking about finishing the games in less populated states like North Dakoda. We're going to have pro sports and soon. I'm convinced of that.

I think college football is in serious trouble.

Play the games and let a certain amount of people in the stands, have them spread out, aka social distancing. Make sure there is plenty of hand washing areas besides inside the bathrooms.

As someone who has a home in Ca and lives there part time, I pay zero attention to what the Ca politicians have to say.

Seems to me that vaccination was mandated back in the 50's to deal with polio. I remember standing in real, real long lines to get my polio vaccination.

I ain't taking any vaccination that has any connection to Bill Gates.

Honest question

In general, I just don't trust him. I think he's a one world order type globalist that uses his money to influence decisions that aren't in America's best interests. In regards to his vaccines, there is just a lot of scary information out there about him. He's also linked to big pharma and I just don't think there is enough transparency from them when it comes to things like testing new drugs, etc. I think he has alterior motives.

How many conspiracy theorists did it take to change a light bulb?

None the government did it

Lol ok. There are hundreds of thousands of conspiracy theorists out there regarding Bill Gates then.

And I'm not anti vaccine by any stretch. Pretty sure I have every one that is available to me.

Don't think its unreasonable to question the sources and the motives of who wants you to inject something into your body though.

Not sure why Bill Gates is on some pedestal. Why do you trust him so much would be my question to you.

And I honestly never even knew RFK Jr was some anti vax guy.

Don't think it would matter what source I provided, if you could just waive the magic conspiracy theory wand.

I hope you guys are right! Even watching empty arenas on TV will still be better than nothing at all.
