It is a false narrative.I don't really want to rehash every virus debate and engage in conjecture about what we think should happen vs what actually will in the real world soooooo I'll just tell you how I interpreted it.
I think we'd probably agree that those likely to complain the loudest about no college football are people in the South and those of us in Florida and in Texas.
Do I think if the South and Florida/Texas had their **** together right now and over the last 2 months in relation to virus spread and deaths that the national feeling would be that we got that summer respite from the virus that everyone hoped for? Yes. (We'd also just be able to blame California's spike on purely liberal leadership or the protests.)
I think under that climate we'd at least be wayyyyyy more likely to at least start the season than facing none at all as the dominoes wobble more and more each day.
I think there's going to be people complaining VERY loudly who followed the rules and restrictions and did everything they could to mitigate the spread of the contagion.
There are also many , many people who will complain who know that flattening the curve is slowly happening in various parts of the country.
IT is just silly to say the people complaining the most are the most to blame.
It is a simple hot take in my opinion that is more about politics or plain bias.
