Football. No, not that kind.

 I thought I'd point out that the "Tulsa Roughnecks FC" are under new ownership, not related to the Drillers anymore. Among the changes are a new name "FC Tulsa," new branding, and 4 games into the season they are undefeated. It's also one of the few events/activities not cancelled due to the rona's.

I know less about sports that most farm animals, but it all sounds good to the casual observer.

Yep yep. And they're back at ONEOK Field this week!

There are few choices today b/c of the pandemic where fans will have an opportunity to watch any sports in person.  IIFC many of our minor leagues have postponed operations indefinitely.  If you are an FC Tulsa supporter; support your local USL franchise and follow any distancing and masks guidelines.

I'm not sure how long many of these soccer leagues like the USL will survive.  Don't know their TV revenue structure; if there's any revenue sharing or not like the NBA.   The USL have had some weekly games featured on ESPN and Louisville FC just recently opened their new 11,000 seat (Lynn Family Stadium) venue where a limited number of ticket holders attended and had to maintain social distancing.  

You may see many of these leagues fold as a result of the Pandemic.
