Wouldn't it be logical to go by win percentage?

Baseball didn't really get any worse. They had incidents with a couple of teams, then it calmed down.

With the lack of fans, it will probably be easier to move games to odd times if they need to. Unless they really have their hearts set on having fans in the stands for Super Bowl, which seems dumb, moving it back would really not be a problem. I'm sure it all could be accommodated.

I don't understand what they accomplished by postponing the game from Sunday to Monday. Since the mean incubation period is 5 days, even if they tested everybody and all tests were negative, it doesn't prove anything.

I was thinking the same thing. One day?

In the old days before sudden death overtime percentage was counted when tie games happened.

Just noticed that the Pro Bowl has been canceled for this season, though rosters will still be announced to satisfy bonus clauses in players' contracts. I haven't watched an entire Pro Bowl in 50 years, so the news just flew by me. However, it does free up an additional week as the regular season inevitably gets pushed back because of Covid. I'm still thinking the Super Bowl won't be played until late Feb/early March.
