For the past couple of months, sports came to a halt, and the only games on TV are reruns of past games, of which everyone already knows the ending. The funny thing is, people still watch these games and get mad again, even though they know what’s going to happen.

During this time, the NBA’s season was cut short and the MLB season was suspended indefinitely, with a chance of not playing at all. Over the past couple weeks, these organizations have worked out logistics on how to safely bring these sports back.

The NBA is set to come back July 30, with 22 teams returning to finish the season and secure a playoff spot. The rest of the season will be played in Orlando, Florida, at ESPN World Wide Sports Complex at Walt Disney World Resort. For safety reasons, there will be no fans in attendance, and all teams will stay exclusively at select Walt Disney World Resorts. The teams will return to play for their seeds in the playoffs; after the seeding games, playoffs will continue as normal. For more information on the return of the NBA, visit NBA.com.

There were a lot of rumors and talk about how the MLB season was going to be canceled this year, along with a lot of disagreements between the league and the players over terms and conditions of a 2020 season. Don’t worry, they have come to an agreement and are scheduled to return at the end of July, with a shortened season of 60 games. Like the NBA, there will be no fans allowed at any games.

Although I will miss going to baseball games at Citizens Bank Park this summer, I am excited to watch the Philadelphia Phillies and Sixers play again.
