There are a whole lot of first responders and front line people who should really be the first to get it...

No offense to NFL players or their fans of course, but lets give it to the people who are putting their life on the line ahead of some sports teams.

Good to see they apparently are doing a ton work trying to cover every angle. Not much is leaked to the media but that's a good thing I guess.

“Extremely small” chance that there will be no NFL season in 2020

I do not believe this much.

They are more concerned with season ticket holders wanting refunds or that future sales do not die more.

I have mentioned before about my brother and I and his nephew own season tickets. 4 of them.

We are discussing now about buying the tickets and how the team will refund any unplayed games.

My nephew is a ticket broker in Dallas. He sells our tickets for those games we won't go to.

We will not go to Thanksgiving becuz he can get $500+ per ticket. That pays for nearly one third the entire season ticket package.

So I told him before paying our deposit, get the refund policy in writing from the Cowboys just incase no games or only part get played.

So I look at news like this as sales speak mostly.

Nobody knows anything yet.

I can’t wait to see pack stadiums with roaring crowds cheering on their favorite teams (The Cowboys)!

Have to think things will be reopened across the board very soon....people are getting restless and many willing to take their chances...there could be fewer people at games and whatnot but I’d bet all I had this coming season happens right on schedule...

Just because whatever the government says is good for us doesnt mean it will be. I dont trust the vaccine whether they say the trials went good or not.

And I say that because I dont trust the individuals behind it, and their behind the scenes reputation.

thats your prerogative.Vaccination will not be mandatory,i trust the Oxford university and Jenner university and others who are working on it to make sure there are no long term side effects to it and i will be the first ones in line to get it.

I wonder how many season ticket holders have not paid for their tickets yet, or can't. Also for the PSL's. many do the 30 years loan payments, so how many are nor paying or can't pay those. All the more reason I am glad I sold mine in 2016. As no one would buy the tickets to the games I could not go to.

He says with hands in praying position.

I just do not see how this really gets better soon.

Sports is meaningless compared to the big picture.

Would you actually risk attending an event and being around even one single person knowing they either have or carry?

Any answer other than 'no' is nuts.

Are you married? Wife, kids?

They have a lot to lose if you screw up.

I can't take the flu shots. Never took a swine flu shot, nor the regular flu shot. I can't. So I never take a pneumonia shot, and I will not take this one either.
It is not so much a trust thing (though some of it is) as it is more an actual medical thing.
