Cuomo offers to 'partner' with major sports leagues to restart seasons

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo says major league sports teams should start planning to reopen without fans, and the state will assist them in reopening.
“New York state will help those major sport franchises to do just that,” Cuomo said at his daily news briefing. “Hockey, basketball, baseball, football, whoever can reopen we’re a ready, willing and able partner.”
Cuomo said the games could still be televised, even if fans aren’t allowed to have to go stadiums. Cuomo said he believes whether sports franchises choose to return will depend on whether they’re able to make money without fans, which is a sport-by-sport determination. 
“I think this is in the best interest of all the people and in the best interest in the state of New York,” Cuomo said. “And then they’ll be up and running and when we can fill a stadium again, we can fill a stadium.”
Cuomo joked that while he personally wants to watch the Buffalo Bills play football on Sundays this fall.
