      What's the right state. the virus doesn't care what part of the U.S. our athletes compete in. Westbrook caught the virus before even boarding the plane so did Harrison Barnes for the Kings. So tell me, which of the states with no confirmed cases or deaths inside the U.S. would be safe?

      @@jaredladmirault1622 the only place on earth with no cases of covid are Antarctica or Greenland no place is safe. Even if there were a few cases like 100,000 plus in some small city or backwater village it still wouldn't be safe. Its just a bad idea in general to have major sporting events taking place during a "World wide pandemic" you do know what that means right? that means no matter where you go what state country province city village town whatever there are confirmed cases and deaths.

      Imani Raimey the nfl could go to New Zealand or another country and play with better covid restrictions and fines. They could theme as introducing that country to American football. New Zealand is a prime choice because they are playing rugby in front of 40k+ fans with no cases reported since they began a month ago

    I don‘t think she should have written a letter afterwards to apologize, nor feel a need to disclose her medical history. Why do people succumb to social media so much? There are those narcisstic folks that need attention, but there is certainly no obligation to address everything online, nor even feel inferior about it.
    The exposure is too much for her, so she should not evem take the risk. Regardless, hope she feels better.

    Sorry but if I told my boss that, I wouldn’t be getting paid to not work my job either, and would be lucky not to get laid off. I wouldn’t even get some “opt-out”.

      Victor Petrescu hey some revenue is better than none. The teams will get paid through tv contracts, advertising, general fandom, etc. Right now people are desperate to consume any sport. WNBA, for instance, could gain some new fans during this time, and that might have long lasting implications. So there’s long term gains to be made for sure even if they lose money right now. That said, I still think everyone working the games should receive a hazard pay.
