Theyve had a lot of time to plan, Im sure there could be some way about it. No preseason games, extend the regular season into that time frame, which means teams get additional bye weeks. Keep AFL & NFL separate this year, so you can run the league in separate locations. Play games at facilities that could accommodate multiple games at the same time (places with a football field, baseball field and soccer field could permit 3 games at once). Have games running from morning to night OR just dont play (nearly) every single game on Sunday. I feel like there are ways around this. --- Live action Hungry Hungry Hippos though, now that was a sport. ~Aeon Azuran <cite>The Popo posted [p:942815821] in How's foot...
