I haven't seen any league rushing to get back to playing . Have you?

The fact that leagues are willing to rush their athletes into scenarios that would compromise their health and safety is not just unconscionable, but frankly ghoulish. Athletes aren’t a disposable commodity, yet they’re certainly being treated as such. Their value has always been in relation to the amount of money their bodies are able to generate, yet the virus has laid bare just how gruesome the exchange is. Players will do anything for a chance to play, yet that shouldn’t be the bottom line at the moment. The excessive measures every league would have to take to make sure games happen with even the illusion of safety just proves how far away we actually are from things starting back up again.
