It wasn’t over, it still isn’t over!
🏈🏀
With all of these sports coming back, it’s hard to believe that we’re still in the middle of a pandemic, but it’s true. Here’s a quick round-up of what’s going on in a few other sports.

In solidarity
🏀
As many leagues begin to walk the walk after talking the talk about social justice and racial equality, a troubling incident in NASCAR demonstrated just how much work needs to be done.

They woke up like this
🏀
For weeks, NBA players have been debating whether returning to play will take momentum away from the protests surrounding George Floyd’s murder and the Black Lives Matter movement. Instead of simply talking about it, some WNBA players are getting sh!t done.

Around and around and around we go

Sports are coming back. But, unfortunately, so are some athletes’ positive COVID-19 test results.

Will they or won't they
🏀
Similar to Kawhi’s famous Game 7 buzzer beater, the NBA season restart is still up in the air. While the league pushes forward with their Disney World bubble plan, Kyrie Irving & Co. are asking their fellow players to sit out.

To help or to hinder
🏀
The NBA’s highly anticipated return-to-play might not happen after all...and for good reason. Players are speaking out about their reservations over bringing their sport back while the fight for social justice continues.

A gong show
🎾⚾🏀🏒⛳🏉
The NBA season isn’t the only one in doubt. Due to COVID-19, the tennis season is hanging on by a thread, while the MLB situation is the literal definition of a gong show. The WNBA and NHL are looking good, though...well, kind of.

It's all comin' back to me now
🏀🏒⚽⛳
If you made plans for the summer (audacious move), cancel them now. With the NBA finally making their return-to-play Facebook official, our summer lineup is set.

Little by little, some of our favorite sports are returning to action. Unfortunately, some of them are heading in the other direction, too.

Will they or won't they?
🎾⚾🏀
As the COVID-19 pandemic rages on, we’re still dealing with a lot of ifs, buts, and maybes about sports that should be starting up again soon.

Guess who’s (maybe) back, (maybe) back again?
🏒⚾🏀🏈
The NHL is the first pro league in North America to give us hope a real, detailed plan for returning to play. Meanwhile, the MLB is disrespecting its players, the NFL is wearing rose-colored glasses and the NBA is stringing us along. Does this situation remind you of a rom-com or what?
