NFL Orders all facilities to shut down Mon and Tues

[Ian]

Interesting move by the league as they try and obviously prevent any further outbreaks coming off the holiday:

NFL orders all facilities to close next Monday and Tuesday

In anticipation of the expected spike in COVID-19 cases after Thanksgiving weekend, the NFL has issued a mandate for next week: All facilities will close on Monday and Tuesday.

Is someone going to tell the league that there are games on Sunday?..and that Sunday comes before Monday and Tuesday?

 

[Wordsmyth]

You can always count on Herr Fuhrer Goodell * to fk things up!

 

[Triumph]

Will Patsfans still be open Ian?

Interesting. Keep sunday games but arbitrarily shut down Mon/Tues

The Nfl needs to go to the home bubble now. Only 5 games left. If not they won't finish the season.

These are facts, and for purposes of this website, I have no opinion of any of these facts and whether any actions should or should not be taken (/should or should not have been taken) by individuals or any level of government.

13 million known infections and an unknown underreporting (some say by as much as 90%, in which case, f***.)

The hospitals are packed.

Outcomes of TG yet to be incorporated, indeed, lots of non-reporting on top of the underreporting to date because many states will need to catch up after the weekend (dip and spike predicted, just from folks not getting the data in--followed by any spike from the TG event.)

Christmas/Hanukah up next.

What a vaccine does is helps you not get a disease if you haven't got it yet.

We do not have a cure.

It is unknown whether the playoffs/super bowl will be played at this date, because they have not yet been played.

It is unlikely that the NFL's little mini-lockout is an overreaction, by my lights, but that is an opinion. Maybe everything's fine!

Less than 50% chance now that the season will finish. Would have said 90% a month ago. Sounds like the league agrees.

This is laughable, pure unadulterated idiocy and shows how much the NFL treasures revenue above everything else.

It's a weird move in the sense of keeping the games going, but for 2 days keeping everybody out. Puzzling

Because Australia enforced a very strick lockdown right away, they were able to get back to business much quicker.

Very close to summer in Australia.

That has a lot more to do with it than political people.

Not to mention they are an island that can restrict people from coming. We had low cases in the summer too

Nahhhhhhh..

It's been proven a thousand times over that the virus isn't affected by the weather in the least bit.

At the rate the NYFL is going I'll soon be down to hockey and golf as my only sports, and I'm not even sure that golf is a sport. It could be defined as a game.

 

[Kontradiction]

This won’t accomplish or prevent a god damn thing. LMAO. It will just allow the NFL to try to get the proverbial cancel culture monkeys off their back by saying, “See! We did something!”

I won't be surprised if Mama Baker locks us down again on Monday!
