Trump Meets with League Commissioners
Earlier today President Donald Trump held a phone call meeting with all major-league sports commissioners which included NBA Commissioner Adam Silver, MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, and even Vince McMahon of the WWE.
Trump said he believes the NFL season should start on its designated time in September after there were questions if the season would be pushed back due to the outbreak of the CoronaVirus.
Trump also said he hopes to have fans back in stadiums and arenas by August and September, but there is no realistic time for that to happen at this time.
Since the outbreak of the CoronaVirus, the NBA and MLB have suspended their seasons along with the NCAA March Madness being canceled. Many sporting events have taken the route to have no fans in attendance during events and games like WWE’s biggest event of the year Wrestlemania will be held with no fans, we have already seen a sporting event with no fans as some soccer games were held with no fans at boy oh boy does it feel weird.
NBA commissioner Adam Silver told those on the call that the leagues were the first to shut down and that they would love to lead the way in starting the economy once there was an “all clear” from public health officials.
