You can mock the comment about bringing back football, but people are struggling, BIGLY, with the lockdown, the trashing of the economy, not being at work / school, etc. Undiagnosed medical issues, increases in alcoholism, spousal abuse, child abuse, elder abuse, depression, suicide, etc. In the long run, more people will probably die from shutdown related issues than the virus kills. Things like football help alleviate that. So go ahead and mock it, but it only shows that you're willing to kill the patient to cure the disease.
