    NFL already wears masks when they play. And NFL will suck without fans

    Agreed.. That's a social distancing sport by nature even before Corona hit.

    Might be bad ratings, but at least they are at least trying to put a product out there each week. Haven't seen an issue with them have a catastrophic outbreak while they have been in their bubble.

    It was pretty misleading that they reopened all these practices facilities

    its just so obvious....any leagues that start just takes ONE SINGLE PLAYER on either team to test positive (which is like 1000% likely) then all teams go back into quarantine, nothing will last more than one/two games, then all will get shut down. The only debate is will all this clear by NFL season, which I highly doubt it will. And with no fans? Good luck with that. Hope I'm wrong.

    Yah, just not worth it. They should take this time to see how other leagues around the world fare. Might find that they need to develop an elaborate bubble community for East & West conferences respectively, with resort staff also quarantined. Cruise ship makes the most sense -difficult to break curfew at sea

    Lot of money at stake obviously, so players would make the sacrifice or take a year off.

    NBA and NHL very doubtful. I say not gonna happen. Baseball and NFL maybe but only if virus is kept under control. Without any cure/vaccine/effective treatment it is hard to imagine the virus will be kept under control. My guess is cases ramp up again as restrictions ease- I hope I'm wrong.

    It's discouraging to hear how many people -- with no more private access to any pertinent
    information than anyone else -- persist in these doom-and-gloom "predictions" with no
    factual basis to do so.

    All because of an almost comically huge and over-extended, hysterical reaction to an
    epidemic with a 97% to 98% survival rate.

    Initially, it made sense to quarantine the entire population but that period is over.
    Hospitals have not been overwhelmed, and the country has flattened the overall curve
    although hotspots remain.

    Yet, we still have would-be prophets hanging out on internet forums (instead of street
    corners) spouting their ill-informed BS. It's annoying to hear one after another say that
    "nothing can happen until we have a vaccine." What nonsense. WE MAY NEVER DEVELOP
    ONE. We still don't have one for HIV/AIDS, and several other fatal ailments. But we don't
    shut down our entire country because of this fact.

    How about giving it a rest, and letting those in charge of these professional and amateur
    sports leagues make decisions on their own?

    Oh, and one more thing: Can we give a well-deserved rest to that silly-assed
    mantra that goes something like this:

    "As soon as ONE PLAYER TESTS POSITIVE, they'll have to shut it all down!"

    Really? Says who?

    Why not just follow the usual protocols for highly-infectious diseases -- isolating
    the infected individuals and treating them?....Along with IMMEDIATE testing of
    anyone living/working/etc. with the stricken player? Seems to make perfect
    sense in ALL OTHER CASES, why not for the SuperFlu?

    But of course, that doesn't take into account all the OTHER factors (and hidden
    agendas?) that are at work right now, does it?

    The NCAA has all but admitted that the College Football season will not start on time, IF it starts at all. They are running out of time to get things going. Students are no closer to going back to school now that they were a month ago. It will take YEARS, not MONTHS, to get back to normal.

    UFC is back and working.. Setting the pathway for other sports to resume..

    I'm feeling hopeful now that some other sports will begin to resume sooner then I had thought before.

    Thinking sports like Tennis, Golf and maybe even MLB can begin to resume as they are distancing sports by nature. Can test them before game time like they are doing in the UFC now.
