Sports without crowds have been happening during the lockdown...but do you think... they are worth watching...without the crowd participation?

Would you still buy the merchandise and support the teams...you supported before the lockdown?

Do you think...most sports will be dead soon...unless....they let crowds attend the events?

I boycotted pro football right after the first knee was taken.. Due to recent events in other pro sports, I've dropped them all.. It's what everyone should do, I'm not paying for their damn attitude..

Its not that simple....

"Under the strictest Tier 3 restrictions, meeting anyone outside of your household or support bubble is banned, this includes at climbing walls! In areas covered by these restrictions it is not allowed to meetup at Awesome Walls with anyone outside your household or support bubble. Any customers seen breaking this rule will be asked to leave."

You can't stop obsessing trolls full of hate to stop lying or spreading misinformation about you... their own anger and ignorance usually defeat them. Just ignore them and post as you wish.

I was never a big fan of sports on television.

The things going on now, even less so.

I used to go to an occasional event live but now I wouldn't even waste 1 red cent on so much as a gumball machine item.

Nope, but the money some of the athletes make puts me off a lot of sports. These days, I usually only watch gymnastics, ice hockey and beach volley ball.

mikey4691: Yeah, many of them don't seem to grasp where their big paydays come from.. Send them home to be the thugs most of them are.. The work place isn't the right venue for protests..
People who earn money...pay to go to sports live and it's not cheap...so these sports teams...should not need extra money....to force feed political agendas on sports fans...cause they make too much already....greed on top of greed....some never have enough and they will learn the hard way...when boycotts happen...people stop buying merch and stop watching wow

I love sports. I don't mind that very few fans are allowed to attend.cheers

I don't think sports will be "dead" soon. Fans will be allowed back maybe as early as 2021 with a vaccine on the way.

The wages are out of control and some sports will never be what they once were...like boxing and football/soccer... I stopped watching both....Sometimes watch snooker...but you don't need big crowds for snookerwink

I did watch wrestling up until about 10 years ago...now it's unwatchable...but I do like the shoot interviews some of the old wrestlers do...you can find so many on youtubewow
