Excellent.

I hope Pro Football Hall of Fame takes it on the chin financially.

Anyone who has been to the museum before knows it is completely overpriced (including a charge for parking) to see a bunch of donated artifacts (no cost to the Hall of Fame) that is staffed by a bunch of volunteers (no labor cost to the Hall of Fame - except for six-figure management) that bills itself as a 501c not-for-profit with 8-figures of revenue annually.

Best case scenario, local business did ok this weekend and the HoF takes it on the chin.

ESPN blowing the NFL so hard over a canceled game. The spin is pretty funny

Yep. And if you notice, Moss completely changed his stance from the beginning of the telecast

face value only, so basically if you got it through stub hub you are screwed. That would be my guess.

Rip out that shite, and put some real grass in. No wonder Benson didn't want that junk in his stadium anymore.

I'm sure an argument can be made that canceling the game is a safety issue like lightning or whatever. Do they refund for canceling games under that scenario?

I would look for those situations as guidance on how this will be handled, even though this was caused by human error, as it all falls under player safety.
