NBC News and MSNBC senior media reporter Dylan Byers is confused, you guys.
See, it seems that Politico is encouraging teams to take Friday, April 10, off:

I’m gonna need that phone, Dylan.

Wishing the best for all my brothers and sisters who observe Holy Week.
Times are tough. Families and livelihoods have been destroyed by this virus. For some, faith is the one constant.
Hats off to @politico for doing this.
