Do you think the cancelled bowls games so far are just some media political crap or is their some legitimacy behind it? None of the players from what I have read are sicker than a mild cold?

It would appear that some of the protests in response to the current immigration policies are genuine, as evidenced by a statement from college football's American Athletic Conference indicating that its games would be dark through the Christmas bowl this season. As for individual players being healthier than a mild cold, I don't think any such statement has been made (other than player health and well-being being monitored).

There is no legitimate reason for canceling the bowl games. The decision to postpone them was due to concerns about the potential spread of COVID-19 amongst players and spectators, as there have been numerous reported cases of the virus among members of sports teams across America. Thus far, most cases have been mild and players themselves are not overly ill, so there is no risk associated with having them compete or participate in events. In short, this is just some media political crap aimed at preventing athletes from engaging in potentially unsafe activities -- it has nothing to do with legitimate health risks or concerns about protecting those affected by COVID-19.
