Re: Why Hasn't Anyone Talked About-A Possible Cancellation?
Galdi said the NFL is having the Draft as scheduled ... and in a letter to all 32 teams told them to not publicly criticize the decision since there is no benefit to that .. and teams would be subject to discipline if they do.

By the time the season gets here we should have plenty of test. Everyone involved could be tested each week and the games played without the fans. |

I could be mistaken or misunderstood him, but I think the surgeon general said just today or yesterday that he believes NY could still be battling this through next year.

Re: Why Hasn't Anyone Talked About-A Possible Cancellation?
I don't see any way where the US is able to resume any sort of functional life the rest of this year. I would fear by years end, there are potentially millions of foreclosed homes, probably 100 million people or more out of work. My greatest fear is that this event turns the USA into a "third world country", with a food shortage / outages, no jobs, government and treasury out of money / disbanded, etc. Sort of an every man for himself scenario. This belief is not scientifically based, i want to point out these are my personal fears as a person who battles severe anxiety, this event is hard on me, maybe more so than most people due to underlying anxieties.
Locally, my town has cancelled all public events through the rest of this year. July 4th at the park has been cancelled. Even the Christmas Parades, festivities have been cancelled for the rest of the year. As far as an NFL season, i think there is zero chance we have one. I think the only reason why they haven't announced it yet is to try and not cause more panic.

World population 7.8BILLION people. NASA is posting a sign
"Earth closed due to Coronavirus" on the moon. The virus is going to run it's course. People will die. Science and Humans will adapt. The world will reopen. The sooner the better. |

This is a bit drastic IMO... China is getting better by the day and they have billions of people.. I highly doubt this country folds that easy. As for sports? Who knows, maybe they will be cancelled but it's too early to tell.

Re: Why Hasn't Anyone Talked About-A Possible Cancellation?
Trump just extended the social guidelines thing by 30 more days. And this is coming on the heels of the report from the Feds that unemployment may get over 35% with over 50 million people out of work before the end of the year.
That right there says to me, that there is zero chance of an NFL season this year, hell there may not even be an NFL or any other professional sport league still in operation at this time next year.

Extended the social distancing to the end of April because the estimated peak of the virus is mid-April. How about this for a scenario .... The virus begins its retreat in mid-April ... bans are lifted for most of the country at the end of April, businesses get back to work in May, and the economy starts to roar in June. NFL starts season as scheduled. Life returns to normal for most everyone. See? We can all make predictions. |
