Texas GOP Gov. Greg Abbott has invited the NFL to host the Super Bowl in Texas next month, saying his state is “100% open,” unlike California, where the game is slated to be played.
“Texas is 100% OPEN,” Abbott tweeted Thursday night. “We would welcome the NFL & their fans to the Lone Star State.”
The governor linked to an article that suggested NFL officials are considering alternate locations to host the game on Feb. 13, if it is not able to be played in the SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California.
The article, from Outkick.com, says that “the Cowboys and the league have reportedly had preliminary discussions about AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas serving as an emergency site to host the event, amid COVID-19 restrictions in California.” That report was later confirmed by a front office source at the Dallas Cowboys.
The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health maintains that it is doing everything it can to ensure the game will be played as scheduled in L.A.
“We are working closely with the NFL to welcome the Super Bowl to L.A. County … while we cannot provide certainty for the future, we do not anticipate capacity limits at sporting event,” the department told Yahoo Sports.
Last year’s Super Bowl, held in Tampa, Florida, had a capacity cap of 25,000 fans. Both AT&T and SoFi Stadiums are able to accommodate about 100,000 fans.
Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
