I know you're trolling me and that's fine, but we should now consider the financial implications for the NFL with things being cancelled.

What would the revenue hit be to the NFL for an entire cancelled season?

Can the league survive a year without football, or potentially two years if Vaccine efforts fail or are slowed?

I don't think the HOF game getting canceled means much at all about the regular season. It was to be expected.

Prepare for the worst and hope for the best. I'm living under the assumption of no season from here on out. And I'll hope to be pleasantly surprised.

Fuck this virus in its fucking face.

Too much money on the table to not do everything they can to play.

Player safety be damned.

This is exactly why I say it.

NFL will get the benefit too of studying other open first. Greed of everyone involved...league, advertisers, vendors, TV, owners and the players. The league tends to barrel ahead...their ego and image of the shield...it’s a powerful identity in the sportworld. It hasn’t been matched

If the Kentucky Derby is opening the gates to 50k fans without masks we will have football. Whether it is on time or a full season IDK. Even if we don't the league will be fine. There is not a single ownership group that needs the revenue generated from the sports team they own.

The owners crying poor mouth is a joke. IMO these sports will do anything to return, public and players be damned. Unfortunately it will take the death of a player for people to start asking if sports are really this important.

Re: Why Hasn't Anyone Talked About-A Possible Cancellation?

Per Adam Shitfer

The NFL accepted the NFLPA's demand of zero preseason games ahead of the 2020 season.
This is a gigantic step towards having the season start on time. The NFL has slowly inched towards the NFLPA's side of this argument, initially requesting two preseason games, then down to one and now agreeing to none. This will allow for a longer acclimation and strength and conditioning period for players once arriving at team facilities, as teams can now take their time to practice rather than prepare for games.



Boom...get the fuck back to work
