Here’s a look at the possible timelines for each major sports league, with the caveat that uncertainty is the name of the game right now
Watching basketball feels like a long time ago. Photo: Emilee Chinn/Getty Images One of the most difficult aspects of figuring out when everything is going to get back to normal in the sports world — and there is no part of the world clinging tighter to the illusion that there will be a “back to normal” after all this than the sports world — is deciding how long a delay is too long.
There will be economic ramifications across the board. The leagues are all but certain to lose programming, and therefore network dollars, the lifeblood of most sports, whether they give up a full season or not. But it is obviously going to be worse if they can’t come back to complete, or even begin, their current seasons at all.
College Sports College basketball has been hit the hardest so far by the pandemic. Given COVID-19’s spread in February and March, there was no way to salvage the NCAA Tournament, the sport’s signature event. And the NCAA went much further than that by canceling all spring sports, ending the baseball, softball, swimming, and tennis seasons just as they were getting started. The fall sports, including the behemoth that is football, are all still on schedule, though recruiting has been put on hold.
MLS The Major League Soccer season had just begun when the outbreak hit. It has currently targeted a May 10 return date, but that is widely considered unrealistic.
