  1. Schopp actually came up with a somewhat decent proposal:

     

    Assuming no positive tests for the Titans, move Titans/Bills to Monday night.

     

    Next week move Bucs/Packers to Thursday night. Packers are on a bye this week and the Bucs are already playing Thursday night this week so it isn't much of a disadvantage.

     

    Move Bills/Chiefs to either Saturday night or the main 4:25 slot on Sunday on FOX. FOX doesn't lose out on the ratings of that game, and Bucs/Packers is a pretty decent replacement on Thursday.

    Think Tenny's scouts are all huddled around a secure Zoom screen pouring through all the names they're going to need to bring in once they are able to play again? Are they allowed to hold virtual workouts right now?

     

    It'll be just like the beginning of The Replacements where Gene Hackman and his coaches are going through players to find. Next week the Titans will have a safety named "Ray Smith" who has been a resident of Tennessee for the last 3 years and likes to embroider!

  3. I'm taking the Rams in my Survivor pool this week. The Rams still have all 6 of their division games left and the NFC West is going to be a blood bath so I am avoiding those games at all costs. Should be an easy win for a pissed off Rams team.

  4. There seems to be a lot of smoke to the fire. Even Jeremy White I believe tweeted something today about hearing how the Bills are putting together a protocol to give to the state. It sounds like they have some kind of plan ready and are going to need the Governor's stamp of approval. I think Erie County has been below 1% infection rate the last 3 days too.

  5. I've been going to Sportsbook at the Seneca Creek Casino downtown and betting on 4 team parlays this season. $10 each time, 3-1 both weeks so far. This week:

     

    Minnesota +3 vs Tennessee

    Washington +7.5 at Cleveland (I almost bet the moneyline on this one on a bigger separate bet)

    Carolina +6.5 at LA Chargers (Panthers cost me my parlay last week, hopefully I don't regret it again)

    KC +3.5 at Baltimore

    They fell in half...over the inaugural season's first 5 weeks...

     

    The pandemic prevented them from approaching zero.

     

    There's only one way to link the NFL and XFL:  the former should relegate its worst 2 teams every season down to the latter and make them claw their way back in by winning the XFL championship.

     

     

     

    Comparing TV ratings to something over 20 years ago makes zero sense given the change in the TV landscape.

     

    They were not approaching 0. They stabled out to where, as others have said, were doing better than the NHL and college basketball at the same time.

  7. What I found weird is that a lot of retailers are already opened for Curbside pickup. So I didn't know why that was included in Phase One.

     

    The more I thought about it though, it might make it easier to go from Phase 1 to Phase 2 with that in there. If those stores are already open, it shouldn't affect the numbers drastically in this stage and might make a move to Phase 2 easier.

  8. Why does every thread get filled with "too bad the season will be cancelled/possibly no fans" comments? Can we please just talk about the schedule and nothing else? 

     

    I like the balance of it. No more than two back to back home or away games. My boss at work is a 49ers fan and a bunch of us are trying to tell him that a trip there for a 49ers game sounds like great team building.

    Not to digress into another Covid situation, but I disagree wholeheartedly. I promise there will be fans and a full season. Take it to the bank. 

     

    Now you have my hopes up for this. I know we are 4 months out and anything can happen, but despite being relatively new here I want to believe you.
