Doubtful the fans will be allowed to attend.

TC is open to the public. But to start it may be less people, right now sports Venues in Texas can run at 25%.
Governor Abbott May announce soon to loosen that restriction for some businesses, so by mid July it could be at 50%

I think this makes a ton of sense. No sense in having the team take risks traveling during the off season. We have plenty of space at The Star to hold a solid camp.

yeah overall it is safer with less contact with strangers . no hotels, or planes rental cars etc.

They will have to deal with the hot weather though in august.

I'm not sure about a full season or filled stadiums, but unless there is a serious uptick in cases, I don't know why there wouldn't be a season. Fans need it, the networks need it, and the economy needs it.

I would say it looks a little more promising now than it did two months ago but it’s still ify. I could see them playing games without fans or with limited attendance. They could keep every couple of seats empty and every other row empty. Keeping stadiums at about 30% capacity.

Good call in the name of safety but the Texas heat will pose a challenge. It gets hot awfully early under the Texas sun. Even if they start practice at the first sign of sun up, they won't escape dealing with the heat every day. I'm curious how they manage 90 bodies on one outdoor field. It's a shame they lost one outdoor field due to construction.

Easy decision. Put that billion dollar practice facility to use

Economy can be replaced, not lives!

There is no law that states fan must be able to attend. The team very well may decide not to put the additional pressure of having to clean and sanitize the area for fans every day when they already have to do that for all spaces the team uses every day. Just like there is no law that says people must wear face masks in private businesses but the owners can state that masks must be worn to all people wanting to enter.
