Terrible sign for football - Marlins cancel their opening series

Coronavirus is running through the team, Miami is a hotspot. 14 players/coaches have tested positive. FUCK ME. A successful MLB season is the key for the NFL having any sort of season, fuck them.

They will probably have better luck with the NHL or NBA as a template

The NFL MUST have a serious quarantine for all players, coaches and key personnel, or the season will be fooked. It's just a fact that the virus is everywhere & it WILL get in all over the place. What kind of a season would it be if entire teams start forfeiting or playing without (for example) all their offensive line or QB or defensive backfield?

If they didn't agree to this in the recent agreement, they had better get back to the drawing board quickly.

Moved to the NFL forum for now (with a shadow link).

I would not be shocked if baseball was cancelled in the next 48 hours.

I look for them to say tough luck and play on.

They certainly intend to try

Owners aren't getting sick
There's money to be made

I would assume only public outrage or player pullout will stop them
