With the airports still being closed in the Tampa area, I was wondering if anyone knew if TB would make it to NY in time for the 3PM eastern game.

I heard them say on sportscenter that if TB does not make it, the game would be a 9-0 forfeit in favor of the Yankees.

Wonder how the sportsbooks would grade this? Since the game would be considered official, and there would be a "final score". Can't find anything on any of the sportsbooks I use about a forfeit being graded as NO ACTION.

Just wondering if anyone ever had any experience with this.

I was thinking of taking a parlay with NYY and the under for the first game....but i know the book will find a way to weasel out and cancel it if TB doesn't make it, LOL.

List it as action.

Hmmmm....interesting idea.

I'm still sure they'll grade it as no action though.

If it gets closer to game time and it seems they may not make it, i'll give it a shot. Don't wanna place the bet if the game is going to be played, LOL

i think the game will be played at the scheduled time... they'll find a way to NY... FUCK THE AIRPORT,,, surely someone on the team has a private jet with a runway on their 10 million dollar estate.....

LOL, probably, but it would have to fit all the players, coachers/manager, trainers, team equipment, etc...

Regardless, i'm sure they will find a way to get to the game.

Game has been pushed back, ESPN did not disclose until what time.
