Just because they're getting sued doesn't mean it's leading to anything in court. The league may settle to keep things quiet, but simply being sued doesn't mean you're in trouble.
Any organization with deep pockets is constantly being sued. It is the price for being successful in America.

Agreed again. I’m just looking for a tussle between Goodell and somebody like Latoya or De Blasio.

We really think any starter on a team is gonna “test positive” the day of a game?

Does Karen, who has never been to a game, approve of this?
I’m 100% in favor of having games this fall, but why do you think prior attendance to an nfl game gives someone’s opinion more authority than someone who hasn’t?

Major League Baseball thought that people attending games knew foul balls and bats left the field and assumed those risks by attending games...they even print it on the back of tickets...they are still getting sued and now getting sued a decade after the fact.
One major difference is that with the foul ball thing, there is video evidence that you were, in fact, struck by a ball at their ballpark.
Prove that you caught a cold at their ballpark.

The official position of the league and the teams surely will be that anyone who chooses to attend a game will be doing so with full knowledge and awareness of the risks, and the lawyers undoubtedly will ensure that anyone buying a ticket expressly assumes the risk of catching the virus by choosing to show up for the game
In other words... "We assume adults will act like adults and take some personal responsibility."
Finally someone has some common sense.

Neither one of them will cancel the Saints, especially a first term mayor seeking a second term.

I've said during this whole thing that the NFL would play. No doubt in my mind they playin'.

Big time players testing positive and having to sit is going to make this year crazy.
Never know what will happen week to week.
When does Brees, Thomas, etc get infected?
With all the testing it's going to be insane.
Honestly, should just say frick it and let them play.
Everyone is going to get infected eventually.

Not much of an update considering NFL was never gonna cancel due to the money it takes in.

Nope.....not sure what it would take, but it won’t be this. Think of the raging incompetence and outright theft of public funds and nary a peep. As long as people’s bellies are full and they can watch joe exotic on Netflix the politicians can go right on doing as they please.

I hope Evers tries to shut down the Packers.

You couldn’t prove a spectator got the virus at a game anyway vs day to day life .
Assume the risks when you attend.. like foul balls/home runs at MLB games

Never been to a riot or protest, and never plan to, but if the NFL season is on and JBE or the Toya tries to tell the Saints they can’t play in the Dome, I would be the one organizing a protest.

I’ll tell you what is so absolutely frustrating reading this.. The biggest potential impediment to playing football will be the availability of adequate and efficient testing, both for football personnel and the general public. By August, however, it’s expected that testing will be prevalent, that the testing process (saliva or finger prick) will be simple, and that the results will be turned around very quickly. there is no shortage of tests. As an ICU doctor, this is as much a joke as the ventilator shortages. This is the NFL being political and nothing more. There is not a person in the general public that if they wanted to get tested there would be no problem doing so right now. Excuse the pun but this is what the politicians and scientists keep doing with the quarantine dates, they keep moving the goal posts
