RE: Football ticket renewal - will there be a 2020 season?

Even if we slow the outbreak, we will still need to slowly open up to prevent a 2nd big outbreak before a vaccine is available early next year.
If the decision was to play games with no crowds, would there be TV coverage? When I think of the crew associated with an ESPN broadcast, the travel involved, etc. I wonder if this could be done safely if "social distancing" remains the order of the day.
Then you think about the transmission of the virus from players on one team to players on the other team, and I don't see it happening. Someone told me that a person who has the corona virus and recovers may be able to shed virus particles and infect others for weeks after their symptoms abate. With experts saying that a vaccine is a year away, that doesn't help for the upcoming football season.
