However, the Saints' win against the Bears was on Nov. 1. The latest NFL memo regarding the updated coronavirus protocol was released on Nov. 3.

"All players and staff must wear masks or double-layered gaiters in the locker room on gameday — prior to the game, during halftime, and post-game," the updated memo read."

The Saints screwed up by ignoring the new mandate. No one to blame but themselves. And it all should fall on Payton.

I agree with this even though it seems apparent that the 'Rona isn't as bad as we were told.

Dying sucks. We all have an expiration date. We were told that this virus would wipe out millions of people. I don’t want my parents to get this virus because they may indeed die from it.

That said, this virus is a threat. It’s just not as bad as we worried it might be.
