I think it's pretty clear that they won't be happening this summer. I expect that they want that extra month to work out whether the delay should be until later this year (v unlikely), next summer, or even summer 2022 which somehow feels more realistic. And because FIFA was corrupt, the 2022 World Cup in Qatar isn't until the northern hemisphere winter, so there's room that summer for the games without too much of a clash with other sports.
Of course sports aren't necessary. Neither are late night chat shows or just about anything we discuss in this group. But that doesn't mean that millions or in the Olympics' case, billions, don't enjoy them. And we're really going to want these sort of things once we're through this!
