By Randy Gurzi
Daily Dawg Tags bring you all the Cleveland Browns news you need to know
Sports in 2020 has been like nothing any of us has ever seen before. Major League Baseball is pumping in crowd noise and the NBA is playing in front of giant video screens meant to look like fans in the crowd.
These sports might not be the only ones played in front of no fans as the NFL might have to follow suit if the COVID-19 pandemic continues at this pace. And if so, there could be fake noise pumped into FirstEnergy Stadium for Cleveland Browns games.
Today’s Daily Dawg Tags looks at that very possibility and examines what that could be like.
Cleveland Browns News
"“Major League Baseball wants some type of background noise and has even sent out generic sound to be used by teams. I do agree with you, at times it’s annoying. They need to figure out the volume. The same for the NFL.In football, no fans will make it easier for visiting teams who won’t have their snap counts lost in the roar of the home crowd. They can have a bigger impact on the game for that reason. Players now should appreciate fans more than ever…I hope!”"
Social media is full of people who aren’t fans of the manufactured crowd noise in baseball. And while the NBA deserves credit for putting the fans in the “stands” virtually, it isn’t the same. 2020 is going to be weird no matter how it ends up going. But as long as we have football, I am good with whatever they have to do.
