    Will the NFL have a season?

    I heard on the radio today that they are planning a season with a cap of 15,000 fans in attendance, all with mandatory masks, and ordering snacks and drinks online from their seats.

    I won't be going to the stadium, will only be watching from home, but I'm dying for some football. I'm bored to death with the absence of sports on TV, and sick and tired of watching Netflix series. I know it's still a long way, September 10th, but just knowing that there will be an NFL season will go a long way in reassuring me.

    So I'm starting this thread to see what other people have heard about whether or not there will be an NFL season; we'll update as needed and if it looks like we'll have one, then we can turn this thread into comments about the upcoming season, and what to expect for each team.

    Thanks for participating.

    They'll probably have some half assed bull$#@! with no crowd. The fall of Rome is in progress, folks. This is just the opening volley. In 5 years, this country will resemble China.

    I refuse to watch any sporting event that isn't 100% normal. Eff this dystopian horsesh*t.

    Well, nothing of this is pleasant, but still, I'm so addicted to football, that I'll watch regardless of the downsides of a curtailed experience.

    Tom Brady is in Tampa Bay now. I'll spend my time watching Clemson.

    The last I heard was that there will be a season, but with no fans in the stadiums. I split a pair of season tickets with someone. The team has not explaineandd how they will handle season ticket holders
