    Some good news: the state of California and the 49ers have reached an agreement. As a result, the Niners will be permitted to admit fans for the rest of the season at 20% of Levi Stadium capacity.

      The NHL has announced that the annual Winter Classic game, held outdoors every New Year's Day, and with the Wild hosting the Blues, has been cancelled based on COVID19 concerns. Likewise, All-Star Weekend, to be hosted by the Florida Panthers near the end of January, has also been cancelled for similar reasons.

        Two more NFL teams have announced the dates and maximum crowds for their first home games in which fans are admitted.

        The Washington Redskins (I don't play the PC game) will allow 3,000 fans in for their 11/8 home game against the Giants.

        One week earlier (11/1) the Baltimore Ravens will allow 6,000 fans when they host the Steelers.

                    Two more Saturday NCAA football games will not be played due to positive COVID19 tests. Army/Air Force and Tulsa/Navy have fallen by the wayside.
