How Covid 19 has Changed Professional Basketball, Baseball and Football


The NBA season got suspended because of Covid. When the NBA season got suspended in March of 2020, that season got back up again on July 30, 2020. Almost 5 months were lost. Also some NBA players said that they weren't going to play because there would be no fans. Covid has made everything just worse sports wise.  NBA fans purchased tickets for a game and because of covid they couldn't go. This would have been very disappointing.


The MLB Covid season started on July 23rd 2020. In the Covid season there were a total of only 60 games and there are usually 162 games, a big difference already. Also there were at first no fans but in the later part of the season they did allow some fans. Some players wore masks. Also the coaches wore masks. Just not a great year for sports.


The  NFL season didn't change really that much. There were the same amount of games. The only big change was that there were  no fans at the beginning of the season. Some coaches got fined for not wearing masks. According to Roger Goodell from NFL.com,”the NFL can't grow complacent because of Covid 19”. Football probably changed the least from Covid.


Since Covid 19 most sports seasons have been changed,  but hopefully soon it will go back to normal.

An Opener With No Fans Was Successful, But Surreal

    Yeah it must be pretty disappointing for some athletes. I like how you talked about more than one sport. I wonder how many athletes have gotten covid-19.

    I think it's amazing how there are way less than half the games that there would usually. Are there a lot of players that stopped playing at least for this year?

    Good job on giving all of those details on how COVID 19 has affected sports. Even though there is covid, I have been playing a lot of basketball and football. What was the first NBA game to be canceled due to covid? Good job!
