I get that.
But what if it isn't? Are you willing to risk the health of hundreds of people ... players, coaches, staff, concession workers, ushers, etc. ... just so that YOU can watch football this fall?
What if one of our starters caught it, was permanently impaired and this season ended his career? Are YOU willing to risk Mixon's career? Burrow's? Jonah's? Your response will likely be "They are always at risk when they play or practice." True ... but at risk from injury, not some preventable virus. Are players LIKELY to get a career ending illness? No ... but WHAT IF THEY DID?
The only way to make sure that EVERYBODY is safe is to quarantine players, coaches and staff for the season. Ensure that all travel and lodging is safe ... airplanes, flight crew, buses, drivers, hotels, etc.
It is either this or cancel the season.
Move the season to Australia.....
