Tiger-Cat CEO Scott Mitchell Sportnet's Arash Madani comment on the 2020 CFL season below:
https://3downnation.com/2020/08/14/t...ss-physicians/“Amazing that the CFL could work exhaustively with world class physicians/advisors, the CFLPA and both the province of Manitoba and a very very strict federal health authority who speaks positively about the plan yet some people think they know better than all those listed above,” Mitchell tweeted. The tweet came on the same day that Canada’s Deputy Chief Public Health Officer Dr. Howard Njoo said that his agency was “very comfortable” with the protocols proposed by the CFL for a hub city in Winnipeg. That plan would require players to self-isolate for 14 days prior to arrival in the Manitoba capital, then for another seven once inside the bubble. Players would be tested on their first day sixth day and 13th day in Winnipeg, with no outside persons allowed in. Violators would be sent home immediately.
Even with a favourable response from public health officials, many people around the CFL have remained skeptical that players can be relied upon to quarantine in the United States.
“The mocking of CFL bubble protocols has been rampant by… people in the league! Expecting Americans to isolate for 14 days on their own before coming to Canada,” reported Sportsnet’s Arash Madani earlier Friday. “Said a source: Guys go MIA Grey Cup week! Who is gonna quarantine knowing they are going into a 100 day lockdown?”
