Las Vegas Raiders Owner Mark Davis He admits that he is still unsure whether it will be safe to play soccer in 2020, and says that canceling the season is becoming a realistic option.
“I don’t even know if it’s safe to play,” Davis said. ESPN late Sunday night … “‘Uncertainty’ is the word.”
Of course, Davis refers to the COVID-19 pandemic: players have expressed their concerns And now Davis says the NFL currently has 3 real options on how to proceed.
Option 1, the league progresses as planned and hopes for the best.
Option 2, delay the start of the season until November and reduce the number of regular season games to 12. All interconference games would be eliminated.
Option 3, cancel the 2020 season entirely.
“Everything is in the air with him [COVID-19] viruses and how it will affect our league and season, “Davis said.
Davis says he is also concerned about the safety and happiness of his new fans in Las Vegas … especially with his new stadium that is already being sold, including seats near the field.
“That’s the Black Hole … it’s the people who want to be in the front row. Boisterous fans.”
“Now I have to tell 8,000 people who helped build this that they can’t come to a game. I don’t have 8,000 seats to move them. We are exhausted.”
Davis says “the optics are terrible”: “advertising on the top of the seats belonging to people you are saying cannot come to the game. I prefer everyone to annoy me instead of just one person. I have to compensate them, and I will. This is about security and fairness. “
Davis also noted that if the season HAPPENS, but fans can’t attend, he won’t attend the games either … insisting that only the “essential to the production of the game” people should be there.
