Hall of Fame Game is cancelled

[BlackCats2013]

I wonder if there is no 2020 season will the Panthers be picking in the same draft position in 2021

I would assume they'd take a similar approach to what the NHL did the year Crosby was drafted when they were coming out a lockout. A weighted lottery based on the standings of the previous played season.

Didn't they announce that the Hall of Fame game was cancelled and they were going down to 2 preseason games weeks ago?  I thought for sure they did that.

They will probably handle it like some of the ticket agencies my friend has been dealing with.  She had tickets to several different events.  When it was clear the events weren't going to happen, she requested a refund.  They basically told her until the day the event doesn't take place, she's not due a refund.  Then the date would come and go, and they'd issue her a refund several weeks after the event didn't happen.

Oh yeah, they are not going to relinquish one single penny until they absolutely have too.  In the meantime they are sitting on my money while I have zero desire to go games this season.  I have no doubt they will have to issue refunds at some point, it's just a matter how difficult are they going to make it?  Will you have to provide a doctor's note saying you are at high risk of some BS like that?  Will you have to forfeit your PSLs if you ask for a refund?  Mark my words, it will NOT be a simple process to get a refund.  Crediting it towards next season?  Sure, no problem, but getting the money back will probably have more hoops to jump through than a dog show.

Who will there be to draft though? NCAA won't have a season and schools might not even be in session, lol.

Classes will be online, but how the draft is going to work is beyond me.

At the rate of infection, herd immunity should begin to form over the next couple months.  I expect a season with limited fan attendance.  Hopefully a vaccine is found so players won't opt to sit out over concerns infecting family.

For millions of dollars I would gladly keep myself from seeing my family for a few months. Many might actually enjoy it. Lol

Not even close. Herd mentality occurs when 60-70 % of the population become infected. That would be 200 million or more in the US. So far less than 3 million have been infected in 4 months. So in the next few months we will have 2 million new infections every day????

We could have reached 60% infection rate in the U.S by the end of the year had we not gone forward with social distancing.

"Confirmed" The virus is asymptomatic or very minor in 7/10 people... At least 20 million people have been infected... For example, in SC in April my whole family was sick and only 1 out of 6 of us was allowed a test, the numbers are BS.

Sadly it's the anti mask league all over. They will tank the economy and football will be another casualty of their stupidity and self righteousness. I think the saying goes 'opinions are like buttholes, everyone has one and some share the smell and view.'

Wear the damn masks and wash your damn hands.

I have been wearing masks on my hands and washing my mouth out with soap. Haven't been sick so far.

Where on earth did you see that?  We only shut down several weeks (some states shorter and a few not at all) and have yet to reach 1% infection rate.

We are short-sighted and selfish people.

That a really polite way to say stupid.

Don't forget to take the temperature of the hand sanitizer
