On LastWeekTonight, John Oliver cautions against hasty return of sporting events
lamenting the loss of professional and collegiate sports but cautioning against a hasty return of such events.
"If we are all reaching the point of desperation, where we're honestly willing to watch large men slap each other in a windowless room, there is clearly a desire to restart sporting event. The question, though, isn't why sports should come back but how that can safely happen," Oliver said. Oliver played an audio clip of Oklahoma State University head football coach Mike Gundy arguing that players should be allowed to play. "Young, healthy students can fight this off with their natural body. … We need to continue to budget and run money through the state of Oklahoma."
