Is moving football to the spring really such a bad idea? Like it or not, it’s time to consider the option


Straight up: The 2020 sports calendar is irrevocably wrecked. Doesn’t matter what happens now, there’s no fixing it. The Mavs could come to like living in a bubble and FC Dallas could avoid infecting the rest of MLS and the Rangers could remember to close the lid before flushing, and it wouldn’t help. Not enough, anyway. No one will look back at the most tumultuous year in at least a generation and label it a golden year of sport.

So if it’s already a bust, is flip-flopping football really such an awful idea?

I can hear you all the way over here: If God really wanted us to play football in the spring, He’d have found better financing.

But let’s face it, at the rate cases are spiking, there’s a pretty good chance football might not be an option this fall, either. Might as well consider our options.
