The reason why so many sports are affected is because audience - the biggest profit source cannot be tested and ensured that they won't spread the virus if one is infected. I don't think playing was the problem but it took some time to understand how the process should go, that is virtual fans and quarantined players.

It's just impossible, we are talking of thousands of audience here, one of them will have the virus and those thousands are already at risk of getting infected, imagine how it will destroy our protocol if we allow that, we should understand, this pandemic is not forever but let's live on the current situation, follow the protocol and just appreciate what our favorite league has offered to us.

In my opinion, a complete stop of games is unacceptable, because for many athletes games are the only way to support themselves and their families.

The main funds for sports events financing come from advertisers. So, we continue to watch games broadcasts and cheer for our favorite teams online.

But to this you said, a dead man or woman does not play football or other sports. Someone dead don't watch either. So it is better that they stopped the games to safe more lives. The games have started again and live has continued, people would have died more if the games were not stopped because of contact.
I understand your concern but there are various tournaments being organized because once the players or athletes are quarantined and tested multiple times then they are safe to make any sort of contact like you might have seen how NBA was played which is not finished but it is a game of contact only and since players were tested and reported negative they are safe to make any contact they want and pay the game normally.

The reason why so many sports are affected is because audience - the biggest profit source cannot be tested and ensured that they won't spread the virus if one is infected. I don't think playing was the problem but it took some time to understand how the process should go, that is virtual fans and quarantined players.

This pandemic is not a hindrance for us to seek for a profit that we want to sustain our needs during this crisis.

That's the reason why most of the investors or businessmen and companies are pushing to reopen their businesses again. This new normal setup is really not hard to do but it just need a lot of time to recover from all of the losses that this pandemic brought to us. We just need to follow the safety protocols and guidelines regarding this pandemic so that we can somehow continue operating businesses even if it is hard to adjust.

Sooner or later, everything will go back to normal and we need to prepare as soon as possible.

This is really a success to us because we adapt depending on the situation and we are the one who are benefiting to it.
We dont actually have a choice but to adapt on the situation we are in because if we dont then it will just surely worsen up the situation.I cant say that it is not hard to do yet lots of adjustments will be made

which people arent really that get used to and the fact where discipline is one of the most important traits on where people should apply. Follow on whats been ordered or into the new system to avoid further
spread of virus.

For businesses then theres no other option left but to set out new health protocols.Its just sad that some of businesses now are still having closed doors neither temporarily and also there are
who closed totally due to bankruptcy.

For game set-up then we have just recently on how organizations do arrange it up which i conclude it was a success.Yeah, its a different situation but at least it did able to push through but somehow revenue
is highly affected but it is better rather than have nothing at all.

It's really very hard to say if it's success of failure. Even if the official revenues look small, it's really really big under the table. Let's say the IPL which is being hosted in Dubai this year. Although there are no stadium audience this year, am sure the players are still paid handsomely, as well as the game has huge betting 24*7 so yeah, there's lots of revenue. I guess financially it's a success but at the same time, indeed the players are putting their lives at risk under this pandemic!
Its up to them though but no one can really ignore if you would really be paid up something significant.Also, you wouldnt be much worried as a player if you do saw on
the strict health protocol on where the organization been doing.

Entire sports events were getting affected out of the pandemic, but if a league for the year isn't conducted then it'll surely affect the fanbase during the next year's games. Upon this it is a must to adjust to the prevailing pandemic. Almost in every game some players have got affected, but with the rest the leagues are being played. Hope the entire thing goes normal over the time.

I think how most of the leagues managed this year was alright. It could have been better, but also much worse. I really enjoyed in the first weeks of the lockdown to watch some of the old games on TV. Also they tried to resume the games as fast as possible. Playing games without viewers in the stadium seems like a good trade off in the beginning and now letting at least some fans back in the stadiums is good. If they had cancelled all the leagues this year it would have been horrible.

Indeed. Some players get infected, but we don't know if that player has been infected because of the event or from other places. The player who has been infected needs to explain where they are before the event or after the event. The scheduling of the events will be necessary, especially if many players get infected. 

players can get infected or cannot depending on thier lifestyle . we think they wont be because they are physically fit due to training and dieting but if the player abuses him self like eating the wrong foods and dont get enough rest , goes in the party at night and gets late sleep . chances are that they catch a virus because they are also gonna be expose on different people when they are on public places  . id say they dont get infected because of the event because events now are restricted to audiences  . they need to check themselves from time to time so that their games or schedules wont get affected .

Each league have a different setup but overall I think it's a success at the moment even though i've seen some games getting rescheduled and postponed

Besides that, I agree with @ralle14 that each league, each sport will have a different setup, and they need to use another approach to the player before they played and after they played.

Some of the sports leagues that got canceled due to the pandemic already finished with their respective resumes with some still on-going and lots of future events will take place under the new normal setup.

We have seen how these leagues put big efforts to somehow bring the sports back while people don't need to go outside to watch. They also think of a way on how to help players feel that the intense and excitement is still there performing in front of the fans.

Even with low ratings and small revenue (as expected), I consider this new normal setup as a success. It's not that easy to set up an own bubble amid the dangerous pandemic.

Kudos to their effort.

I may see it dangerous at first but based on the sports I've watched, it's definitely a success, athlete's are safe and the sports we have before the pandemic is still the sport we watched during the pandemic. Audience and other players are not in attendance but still, they can play once everything turns back to normal. They pulled it off. And it is really a success that will be written down in history. Sports getting through even with a pandemic. Basketball in my country started its season too this week, wishing the league a success too.

Players are feeling different now and we can see that in the games that happening now,their performance really changed and their also the home court
 advantage is gone for now.
I agree that some teams are struggling when playing at home but I disagree with the advantage being gone for good. Few weeks ago Aston Villa took down Liverpool at their home field.

Yes we could consider it as success like the NBA which successfully finished the playoffs and the leagues in the football matches are successful as of now and I think some tennis games and baseball games also.
We cannot really tell if they succeed on continuing finishing the season this  year in terms of health conditions, yes they ended very well but is there anyone who feel sick right now? Any asymptomatic person could infect someone without them knowing. So yeah, I must say they succeeded on a new game set up, but we're not really sure if they did it just as fine as no one gets the virus.

So far we can see that there are now news about players or parts of staffs that had able to get some infection which indicates that the entire association is
careful on following good health protocols because if they havent done such thing then expect that the entire season wont continue since there would be
a widespread that will happen internally but we have seen that they had finished it up in spite of the condition or situation we are in.
Its a success imho but there might be differences in sight but still a good job.

I agree with you . Actually at this point this new normal setup it is a success. but as long as it lasts?   
if you take a look, there are a lot of players that has been infected by COVID19.
I am not sure that this is a suitable method for "the long term".

The revenue dropped, but the ratings are the same as far as I know.

I would agree on the part where they got low revenue compared before but when it comes to ratings I think the opposite is happening.

Low ratings were all across the sports during the pandemic. Even the most awaited every year for some basketball fanatics, NBA finals established a new record of all-time low ratings in a Final series.

Revenue isn't a basis for a new normal setup to called a success. It's already expected that there's a decline in revenue for an obvious reason.

It was determined on how far the development goes during the bubble setup. The fact that the majority of sports events that already done this pandemic didn't recorder or involve in a Covid-19 related case, then that's a success as protocols are properly followed.



but when it comes to ratings I think the opposite is happening. Why? Because lot of sport fans are hungry to watch thus became more excited and interested to watch the long awaited games. Perfect proof is the huge number of views on their live streamings and other videos.

Can you give us some links or sources that show a huge number of views on across the sports this pandemic? I'm pretty sure ratings got low compare to their usual. That was even on news. Reasonable though.

Take note that when we say "low ratings" the figures are still "millions". However, not the usual numbers prior to pandemic.

There's no other way to say it, sport = money! Locking down caused many financial problems, not just for sport clubs, also for all other businesses directly connected with sport!
A success or a failure?! Well the games will not stop, be sure in that! This period is hard for many, and like always strong will survive! Many others will have trouble surviving, some clubs will change their owners...but generally it's nothing new, those things happened before! Like always, it's either adapt or perish.

Its better rather than have nothing at all and there no doubt that it did really succeeded. ex. NBA. In spite of the current situation we are in,they do still able to finish the season and did really make out
for it to be done.Yeah it might be different but at least you can really see the effort has been made which you can really appreciate.If it was a failure then they wont really able to make it that far.
Kudos in deed to the entire association or management where they do still proceed out and make their best to continue even it is really that hard and does really change up when it comes to
revenue.Hopefully that all of these things would be over so that we can already go back to normal on where crowd is surely present.

Everything will back to normal all just need is the cooperation of everyone so the pandemic will end.audience is always important when they have spors events but because of what happened today they just need a nee set up or cancelled it

I am not so sure I agree with your opinion there have been low ratings, people love sports and for the most part many love to be in the stadium cheering for their favourite teams and since they cannot do that they are watching them on their TVs, if anything I think many sports are probably reporting record audiences as people are still desperate to get some kind of entertainment and being able to take off their minds of the difficult reality we are living through, however I agree that there are less profits to be had especially for those organizations that are not as popular and that depended heavily on the attendance of people to the stadiums to sustain their business model.

Looking at the sports betting website right now I've seen that there's a lot of open leagues and sports it's like the usual fights we've seen in the old normal. By looking at these fights we can say that they are already successful.
