Earlier during this past weekend, the president held a conference call with league commissioners around the country, which of course included Roger Goodell representing the NFL. The NFL is the largest sports league in the United States, and also is the one that was fortunate to have been in its offseason when the deadly COVID-19 pandemic came into full swing.
During the conference call, in which Donald Trump continued to express optimism about the timeline regarding the return of normality in society, he reportedly said that he believes the NFL should begin its regular season when it is currently scheduled to begin, in the early stages of September.
