No fans at NBA games either? Mike you heard anything?
She is such a mess. Can anyone name one positive thing that she has done for this city?
If you Jimmer it, they will come.
You guys act like the season starts tomorrow. FFS, relax. Who in their right mind would want to attend a game, anyway???
She cooked some gumbo

With the flu I'm not worried about heart and lung problems for the rest of my life if I recover.
Well they are looking at new places for the Saints. Baton Rouge very happy to host them with fans. Guess we will have to drive somewhere else to watch Pelicans if mayor won’t change her stance. Who knows OKC could bend over backwards for another team. Think they care about masks and social distancing?
They can play in front of a crowd on Mars for all I care. I'll be watching from home.
I talked to a guy who works high up for another team and he said everything is on the table. You wouldnt believe the things they have explored and that have been thrown out there.
But what cant happen is zero gate revenue next year. Owners simply wont allow a season to happen with zero revenue. They already ate a bunch of money in the bubble, but did it for the good of the game. A whole season with no gate revenue could result in 100+ mil in losses for some teams. Even after they share tv revenue, merchandise, etc.
They need to find a way to get at least a few thousand in the seats for at least half the season.

“If it doesn’t make dollars then it don’t make sense” is what I was told by an old CPA buddy of mine.
If teams aren’t able to make money at the gate next year then your best shot at catching a basketball came will be down at your local YMCA/Rec Center. The NBA is more about money than it is the actual game of basketball (see New York Knicks for a prime example).
Well everything is about profit and not necessarily doing things most efficiently or effectively society wise. Even in today's heightened ESG atmosphere.
That said, it defeats the purpose if holding games at arenas results in players, team personnel, and fans spiking covid cases. Then they'll need to shut down again anyway.
God forbid if some player gets it and dies from some related illness. Not worth it.
Seems like the Superdome folks will keep both venues(Arena&Dome)as safe as possible

This video (on top of the graphic I posted earlier) is a reason why @nflcommish reached out to @mayorcantrell @CityOfNOLA about reopening @MBSuperdome for fans.

Well she just kicked out the Saints. Are we next?

We all know she is just going to move back to California when she loses re-election, just like Ray Nagin moved to Dallas once his term was over. Did Mitch make his way to DC or somewhere else yet?
