I followed the NFL pretty closely when I was in high school, but since freshman year in college I haven't really cared much about it. I watch 3 or 4 Chiefs games per year anymore.

I love the cutting the cord excuses by the liberal media. Like you can't get that crap on basic tv.  :lol:

They're the worst they've ever been.
The explanation for why the league's ratings are down is far more complicated. For a start, ratings for a variety of sports broadcasts have declined.

I also posted a link where ppl are getting out of their directv nfl packages. People have been fed up with the NFL for years, but this will tip the scales even more.

Wackycat08, do you think firing 200 nfl players would help ratings?

What? Kap doesn't have a job because he brought politics to work. Now ppl just stop tuning in because it's only getting worse. Sorry ppl don't want politics shoved in their face.

Yeah, but any effects won't be immediate. Most of the NFL TV deals are set for at least a few years. Maybe as those are negotiated for renewal things will change, but right now its hard to tell. People are fickle, this just happens to be the latest thing for everyone to get worked up about. IMO, this will blow over and go away and many will go back to watching their football team again and the NFL likely won't take a huge hit. Besides, at this point it just sounds like everyone (NFL, TV, streaming) are still in flux trying to figure out what people are watching. The protests and people getting worked up and concussions are all factored in there, but changing habits in how people watch TV/sports is still a big part of it and has to be considered.

I think the grown men who burned their NFL jerseys will probably just buy new ones in a couple of weeks. What else are those guys going to do with their time?

I'm asking what you want the nfl to do. Trump wants the 200+ players who protested this weekend to be fired. Do you think that would help ratings?

This has everything to do with Trump.  People weren't talking about this nearly as much two weeks ago.

I get annoyed at conservatives being one trick ponies. (sorry wacky) Things generally are never as black and white as they want them to be and folks need to listen (actually listen) to both sides. You can still stand (or kneel) for what you deem important, but IMO we need to find ways to unite and not divide and I tire of people on both sides of the isle (seemingly) looking to be divisive. It gets old.

No, the damage has already been done. Doesn't matter anymore. Chiefs are going to finally win the Super Bowl and nobody will be there to see it.  :bawl:

Every time I try to unite ppl on here, the libs attack.  :frown: Goes both ways, like you said.

The kneeling bull crap has been tiresome for a long time. Trump's a dumb eff and i've stated that many times, but you won't listen, because like _fan said, ppl hear what they want to hear.
