Why should it proceed? Sentimental value?
Why shouldn't it? They are talking about the possibility of making a very unusual plan to perhaps get going in July, which last I checked is still months away. They aren't saying they'll be back playing to full arenas next week.

Basically every business/sector in the world is trying to figure out strategies to move forward with life, yet we expect sports to just sit by idly because some people are weirdly offended that they are even thinking about a return?

I hope they figure out something that works, just like I hope we all figure out something that works. Why is it so offensive that people/companies are trying to adapt to a new reality?
