Agree, bailing out the airlines after they spent 94% of profits buying their own stock back.Whether it is insurance money or savings, or rainy day funds, or whatever, this distribution should be made whole!!! Seems like every organization no longer has any savings or nobody plans for these things in some way. Record Profits, Record Debt, no planning!!!
Wait for it.I can't imagine the SEC schools, boosters, and fans standing for no season.
There will have to still be significant numbers of cases and deaths happening for them to even consider it.
no, from the two articles I read.So is it true that Sweden is just going about business, if you are sick you stay in everyone else is as usual?
The entire NFL will play the entire season at the Greenbrier in WV? What does that mean?The craziest thing I’ve heard so far today on the ol AM radio is the NFL will quarantine and play the entire season at the Greenbrier in WV. And that was on mainstream WFAN radio.

I mean, I'm in. If they can make ensure player and staff safety and still play the games, I'd be good with it. It would be very strange with no fans and a completely silent game experience outside of what you can hear on the field.Mike Florio Suggests Putting the Entire NFL on a Desert Island to Ensure a Season

can the Pac12 follow this model and play the season on Alcatraz? the dorm rooms are already there.Mike Florio Suggests Putting the Entire NFL on a Desert Island to Ensure a Season

There have to be uninhabited islands that could fit a few fields and sheds. The one Tom Hanks was stuck on that time with the friendly volleyball? Oh wait he has Corona though.can the Pac12 follow this model and play the season on Alcatraz? the dorm rooms are already there.

You're right, but it's not really feasible anyway. Even if the logistics can be overcome, guys aren't leaving their families.Let me just say that the idea of moving entire leagues to a single closed location is the absurd fever dream of someone going through intense sports withdrawal.
You want to see guys going full on ape**** on one another? Lock them up in a single location for six months without access to *****, pot, and their families. Dudes will literally be killing each other.
Plus, injuries - what happens when a team has two QBs get hurt, two PGs, or two goalies? You have to wait for someone to sit in quarantine for 2 weeks before you can bring him in? Kinda defeats the purpose of an "emergency" player, doesn't it?
You mean Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome kinda stuff? Sounds intriguing.Let me just say that the idea of moving entire leagues to a single closed location is the absurd fever dream of someone going through intense sports withdrawal.

Well, it's better than seeing a dude shoot a J and fall down like he got shot with a bazooka. As far as going ape ****, look how the game used to be, not this toilet paper soft bull****. It was more entertaining, but good luck finding toilet paper.Let me just say that the idea of moving entire leagues to a single closed location is the absurd fever dream of someone going through intense sports withdrawal.

Perhaps if the CDC is correct and the summer causes a slowdown in transmission rates and an effective anti-viral medication, treatment is found - like Tamiflu that can be picked up at the pharmacy and self administered - then perhaps the season will be possible.Out of 112 AD's surveyed about three quarters gave a 7 out of 10 or higher on their level of confidence that we'll have a season. Hopefully their optimism will be end up being warranted.
I could see MAYBE the NBA doing playoffs entirely in Vegas in front of no fans with 5 game series that lasted nine days max. But even that would be hard.

ADs are by nature very optimistic people. It's kind of a basic job requirement. I wouldn't look to them for any substantive hope.Out of 112 AD's surveyed about three quarters gave a 7 out of 10 or higher on their level of confidence that we'll have a season.

I’m far more optimistic and more hopeful than Kirk’s quote there at this point. I just think that’s a little bit premature at this juncture while offering the caveat that there is so much unknown out there. Kirk’s right based on everything I’ve read in terms of medical experts, in terms of the facts. I’m hopeful and optimistic that with so many people working on this that we’re going to have some kind of treatment, some type of break over the next several weeks that will make it far more feasible to have football. At this point, I’m far more optimistic. Might there be adjustments to the schedule? Might things change a little bit in terms of how the business is conducted? Sure.
