New Normal Game Setup - a success or a failure?

[michellee]

I think the implementation of the new normal is quite successful, because I saw the leagues starting to be active again and there were no fans who looked directly at the stadium,
and I see that on social media the fans are still enthusiastic even though they only see at home, and I really support this new normal because it helps to prevent the spread of the corona virus,

The conditions need to keep like that, so the infection among the people can reduce. Until the situations can be normal again, the audience doesn't need to visit the stadium, and they can watch the match from their home. I hope that what we see in the sports can be applied too in the public area because the public area will have many people than the stadium. If all people can try to protect themselves and always follow the protocols, I am sure the number of infections can drop.

In my opinion, the new normal games setup that is currently running is quite successful, because some of the sports leagues are already active.
Even though there are still some shortcomings it is normal, because to be able to run perfectly it still takes time. The most important thing is
that we as sports fans can watch our favorite team or player can play again. And also we can start playing sports betting again, because some
sportsbook sites are re-opening.

People would be happy as atleast we are able to see some matches happening live else would have to see those replay matches if the events would not have been conducted. So in such cases feels good and also they are implementing quite well and some big tournaments are also happening without audiences as well.

They can choose to pause for awhile because it's not profitable to host a game without a crowd, but they still do, we showed our love to the game, they are just giving us a return, and therefore we should appreciate their effort although it's not perfect or does not satisfy our expectation.

Even though it's not the usual setup since they have their own bubble's I think in my opinion it's still a success haven't seen any news about any leagues that was stopped due to the virus maybe some games before but until now we can see that a lot of teams are still playing on the leagues all around the world.

[Apes]

only a few matches or leagues are able to implement the new normal strict protocol, the proof is that there are still many matches and leagues that are still pending even though the season should have started.
I believe not all leagues or matches are forced to start in the midst of this pandemic. some choose to postpone and sacrifice their income for the health of players and fans.

[Gotumoot]

For me it is a huge success that they could still give us the things that we have been so eager to see the sports coming back.
Of course all of us shouldn't expect too much from it the athletes wouldn't feel the warm support from their fans and we also couldn't support them live on their games we could only watch and cheer for them online.

[Emitdama]

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.

Even sports like Cricket are now resumed because they are made to live inside a bio-bubble where they are given some restrictions on where they can go and what they can do within that bubble. As long as players follow these instructions they are safe and ready to play and there are some nice rules changes in cricket like Bowlers can no longer use saliva on the ball which can spread the virus if allowed. Also the players are not allowed to use the ball after it comes from out of the stadium and it is sanitized first before being given to the team by the umpires.

More and more events are being restarted now and yes it might take time to fully recover but we already seen French Open and US open and now the IPL is going on so all sports are somehow able to conduct the biggest events.

True the important thing here is that they're active, back in action, and that viewers could once again watch what they love. Still though, one of the failures in the new setup would probably be the best players in a team being diagnosed with the virus, therefore being unable to play, thereby having a match between a perfect team and a team filled with subs and therefore, filled with holes. I saw someone post here about something like that, not sure if it was a friendly match or not, but nonetheless you get my point.

It wasn't a failure but not also a 100% success by then. It needs more adjustment and more time to finally adopt the new normal, is a thing that no one around is shouting loud but all of them are just watching on TV or on the internet live. The game must have to continue despite these huge changes, though it wasn't really lively to see but that is what we have today. Social distancing, limited numbers of allowed person to get inside, we have nothing to complain because that is the protocol and we have to follow it.

Well, a compromise is something that is quite normal here tbh, if they were able to implement this new setup perfectly then I'd have to really bow down to them. Nothing that we can do about it though, it isn't like there's a huge riot over the new setup, and I'm pretty sure most of us know how difficult it is for even the new setup to be done.

It's also expected that they will continue the league, otherwise they won't be making money as until now there's still no positive news about the vaccine of covid-19, we don't know if it will end or we will permanently live with it in our lives, but the sports will continue as there are still people who are watching and looking for it.

I just hope that all sports players don't get an infection in the field or their homes or the public area.
The leagues are still running, but the health protocols still need to be used to their safety and prevent the infection of Covid-19.
But what I am worried about is how they can protect themselves while they are in the public area because they need to buy their daily needs or buy something.
Maybe these situations will continue until the vaccine can be found by the scientist to cure the infected people, and we don't have to be afraid of the virus.
But the sports event does a good thing because the event can still run in the pandemic, but by applying a strict health protocol to the player and all staff.
Hopefully, they can also tell the public to protect themselves from the virus because sometimes, the public will listen to their idols.

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.

They have no choice but to continue and be resilient and make the most of the situation, they have a league to protect they have people to support they can do it because they have all the information that they can use to help the league or the organizations to continue and so far majority of the sporting events are a huge success, basketball, boxing MMA you name it all are successful.

[Sadlife]

I don't consider it a loss of profit for them when they have earned millions from streaming platforms such as Youtube and Facebook.
As we know, its more easy to earn clicks and views especially when everyone else is staying in their homes that can quickly access any sports show they want, with their devices. On the other hand, its a cut of cost cause they don't have to pay tons of personnel.

They need to adopt in these new setup to keep their industry, their employees and to sustain their needs despite covid. It may be hard at first diue to plenty of rules and protocols need to be set at first but if not now, when will it be possibly to start again so the only thing now is to try it and see how it can be successful. It's like starting again from scratch whether there are people who will still watch, bet and invest. Sooner it will be like another normal once they get used in this setup.

Still a success for being able to continue despite of the pandemic. Changes are just inevitable in order to adapt with the new 'normal'. NBA as an example, successfully finished this year's league, which I think supports the claim of sports industry for successfully being again on "track". Same thing with local leagues of not only basketball but also other sports. Ofcourse, it is not as easy as it may sound hearing "they just got back with what they usually do". They made adjustments for such thing to happen. The continuation of sports industry does not mean we have already overcome the problem. Existence of it is still there and that is enough for all of us to be careful.

Sportsbetting is also coming back and that is quite of a good news for our fellow players out there which would again allow gamblers to enjoy the game and enjoy playing at the same time.

Well, there really is no other choice but to keep doing that but the consequence is that the audience and supporters are not as many as usual and it will disturb the mentality of the players, when it is broadcast on some streaming media it seems like we are seeing them doing routine training because what makes sports fun is from the audience who can provide excitement while running the match.

Indeed, no one wanted this to happen but life must have to go on and we go along the said new normal. We still have a choice not to adopt the new normal but only if we can wait for this pandemic to stop and that be a problem coz we even don't know when the situation will calm down. If we keep that wait, we have to waste a lot of time. That is why it leaves us no choice but to face the new challenge of our life in a real world.

Thankfully, television and the internet were also discovered. 
Because there is no sense playing in the bubble without viewers.

I just hope they won't put a higher price for VIP watching.
I mean, they could increase it a little to gain some profits but there will still be advertisements that will pay high amounts to get a spot.
As a fan of sports, I am grateful for what they had done especially the NBA.

The conditions need to keep like that, so the infection among the people can reduce. Until the situations can be normal again, the audience doesn't need to visit the stadium, and they can watch the match from their home. I hope that what we see in the sports can be applied too in the public area because the public area will have many people than the stadium. If all people can try to protect themselves and always follow the protocols, I am sure the number of infections can drop.

This has become a protocol rule that has been applied in the competition system in all sports, fans are prohibited from entering the field except for staff and medical.
In the new normal era, we still have to keep our distance so that the transmission does not spread so quickly, but there are many people who are bored, some are also taking advantage of working at home in this difficult situation, so for sports betting lovers they will still be able to with their wishes all the matches have been held. continue that means gambling is still running even though the new normal is still being applied.

Before the player's entrance to the field, the staff must clean it with disinfectant and make sure that the players can play without a problem.
We can keep our social distance in the public area, but how with the other people in the same place as us because I see that many people are still in the crowd together without a distance from each other. That can attract a new case or new cluster of Covid because we don't know how they protect themselves in the public area.
