Chatted with a few Saints beat reporters, while it will be more difficult with the NFL and its roster sizes, the NFL is legit hard-core focused on establishing a "bubble" so as to minimize spread and contact tracing...

Now what the NFL says and what actually happens, well, that's open to debate, but as AG posted re: the CBA CCPVirus Addendum, that's the mission statement status quo for the NFL at this time...

Are you doing a camp thread this year? I always look forward to that.

Thanks and Yeah, usually Hagan and I would coordinate via DMs so we kept the thread pumped with talking points that'd get participation and try to defuse folks from allowing great passion become too venomous...

This year is gonna be pretty dynamic and in flow as we see how this #CCPVirus can change the landscape quickly...

Have already reached out to a few of the generous Saints reporters for their thoughts and like us they are bewildered by what is happening and just as unsure how events will unfold, but they all agree - we need football...

@Nick_Underhill has written a piece tonight about Sean Payton setting the tone early for the season in his presser today...

I managed to get myself blocked by @SeanPayton early this year with some light-hearted jabs, but truthful, honest, and accurate reminders to him of what he's said in the past and inconsistencies in what he's done...

So I appreciated Nick's article addressing the focused Sean Payton...

U better believe it, no hiccups on protocol or escaping the bubble to get the team in harms way . The boys of summer are showing there true conceded egos spreading the Covid thru out one club .

Sources: MLB requiring teams to add coronavirus protocol compliance officers

Ya' think? The NFL required this months ago. The NFL appears to be lightyears ahead of MLB in operating under these conditions.

Instead of being the last to leave the old ways like our usual NFL antics....

In this case the NFL has FAR more to lose than any other professional sport. Even if no fan sets foot in a stadium this year they are still looking at over $8,000,000,000 in revenue. Not to mention record TV ratings that are expected. They are pulling out all the stops. You probably have less of a chance of contracting the virus at work as an NFL player than any other profession. No other mainstream job would be able to spend the money that the NFL has to have such stringent protocols. I'm sure every Kroger doesn't have on-site testing to clear every employee and customer before entering the door.
