So anyone thinking this game is a sure fire bet to happen, keep your fingers crossed

I think the game is a pretty sure bet unless there is a Covid outbreak among one team or the other right before game time, which I think if both teams make the 85% vax threshold and don't have to test regularly - won't be an issue.

Now as to whether there will be full capacity or not or maybe even a change of venue, a lot can happen in 5 weeks and all joking, and hyperbole aside California will go to the extreme on this more quickly than any state.

But one thing last year proved is games can be played safely, despite all the threats and "OMG why are they even trying to play - they are risking lives" BS - they were played and the very loud and very combative folks against that were proved wrong and fairly convincingly.

So IMHO the game will be played. At what capacity I wouldn't yet lock that down as some have.
