Half Empty? NFL

[Operational needs]

I think that's exactly what it is.

So by the same token, you’re saying you have a slave mentality. That coach has never been a slave owner just like you have never been a slave. What would he know about a “slave owner mentality”?

Or what?

We turn it off.

 

[What The Hawk?]

Oh come on, the people who are against this don't want them to protest anywhere anytime, that's what this is really about.

LOL where were these protesters when Kaepernick was doing it solo? They only did it when Trump said something. They did it to be trendy not to protest racism. They don't do a damn thing off the field about this the way Kaepernick does. It's all lip service.

We turn it off.

If you don't want to watch football that's fine.

 

[newfie]

Or what?

or they'll keep pissing off the fans and viewership and support will continue to decrease as it has the past year.

for some reason the protestors did not recognize the fans right to protest their actions. they heard it loud and clear this week and teams are struggling with finding a solution.

the optics of disrespecting the flag is a loser.

It's not the same token. And no I don't have a slave mentality that's why I speak of against discrimination and inequality.

Well it's all fine and dandy until they realize they aren't making the profit they used to..because the people who racked in the millions just dont want to deal with it anymore..the NFLs loss in the end.

Sure it is. Maybe he does the same thing. We have no idea. I think it’s very unfair of her to make such a statement about the coach. Seems to me that he was trying to teach the kids that actions have consequences. I was taught that when I was a kid by my parents and have always (almost lol) chosen to follow the rules, because I don’t like bad consequences.

Star athletes will always make a lot of money and football isn't going away anytime soon.

viewership is down 10 to 13 percent a week so far this year. many polled list the disrespect of the flag as a main reason.
it will be interesting to see how this week turns out you have many fans swearing they would not watch, you would also think there would be those some who would not normally watch who would do so at least the first few minutes to see how the NFL responded to all the calls and mail this week.

It isn't the athletes who need to worry..its the man who needs to pay them who's losing money. As I said before. The NBA has the right idea.

They are a long long way from losing money, even with a ratings dip the NFL is still raking in billions.

 

[newfie]

and then there are those like me who are tired of the politics being interjected into everything I watch.
I wont watch Hollywood anymore due to all the hystronics that have become too political. wont watch many live music performances anymore same reason.
will I being watching pro sports. I would have said yes before last weekend but I haven't watched a game in two weeks and I don't miss it. I can't watch overpaid athletes who are lucky to live the life they have interjecting their politics into my viewing.

Did i say it would happen soon? This is the start..just watch and enjoy.

 

[newfie]

they lost about 20 percent viewership from last year including this years present results. that's a huge hit and one they cant ignore forever.

Thank god the team owners now have someone to blame for their failures.
Ya, people kneeling is the reason attendance and ratings are garbage, smh, you're clueless.

Ok.
Doesn't really have anything to do with what I said though.
