It has been shown to be possible to conduct sporting events with minimal risk. I'm not sure what happened with the NFL but the MLBPA did not want a bubble, until it was finally agreed upon for the the playoffs. Maybe the NFL will agree to a bubble for the playoffs too? Either way it's not surprising that players don't want to live in a bubble for months. And the MLB showed in their regular season that it is possible to do it without a bubble. They had some trouble at first, but by the middle of the season there were no issues with the virus. Irony posted...

scorpion41 10/19/20 7:39:22 AM #23:	No season is going to be canceled because theres no reason to cancel. Covid isnt running rampant through teams/leagues. Teams arent shutting down every week due to positive cases. The high school team I coach for has 140 kids and 15 coaches around each other daily since June. To date, we have had only ONE positive Covid test and it happened last week. There have been very few football games canceled due to Covid that wasnt due to league/school officials originally deciding not to play out of fear. --- PSN: scorpion_4160 Currently Playing: NCAA 14(PS3) <cite>scorpion41 posted [p:946027967] in At what po...
