We’ve got another reader question that I think makes for a good conversation starter today, so I’ll lead with this from Craig (not Custance):
In order to reduce travel exposure to the Covid, why not have divisional and conference teams play their respective home and away in one series? For example, if Detroit has a season total of three home games vs. Columbus, those home games would be played in one week (5-6 days) long homestand. Conversely, the three Columbus home games would be played in a week-long homestand in Columbus. Detroit’s homestand would be in the first half of the season and the Columbus homestand would be played in the second half of the season.
