What the NFL has failed to understand is the customers . Look at Nascar as an example of how to reduce customers and TV market share. Most places do not allow you to take your politics to work.

Well... That's it for me. I'm out. I will no longer support these asshats with viewership or dollars. They can all continue to circle jerk themselves to death for all I care. I've been putting off reloading a couple thousand rounds of .308 for years, choosing to watch NFL games instead. I will be getting that done this Fall.

I stopped watching baseball when those asshats kept striking. Now I'm done with pro football. Fuck them. I just hope no one in college football starts this trend. I need to watch my Seminoles play.

The arrogance of the NFL and its players is unbelievable.
They call the president names, disrespect our flag and then say that the president does not have the right to criticize them and that he is being disrespectful. Arrogance and stupidity from people who should be humble because they are lucky enough to live in a country where over juiced, uneducated people can earn millions of dollars playing a kids game. Keep spitting on your fans and see how long it is before the gravy train ends. |

ordinarily i'd suggest that any business that alienates 50% of the people just did something really really dumb. but when that 50% happens to be your consumer core base it seems to go well beyond dumb.

Ah - a Sunday without watching football. The NFL earned it. Guess I'll get some things done around the house, catch up on some gun cleaning, call some of my Vet friends I served in the war with and enjoy the day another way. Until they fix the problem, they're shit in my book. Protest by not taking your paycheck. Or hey - here is an idea - what if every one of these jack asses gave a million bucks to un fuck Chicago? Since they care so much......

Keep spitting on your fans and see how long it is before the gravy train ends. Players are idolized. Franchises have money thrown at them in the form of stadiums, tax incentives, etc etc. It's been disgusting and laughable to any thinking person for quite a while. Locally, Mike Brown took Cincinnati to the cleaners more than once and the city/county bent over and asked for more. All over a bunch of over paid, grown men playing a kid's game. As I mentioned a little in my HS football thread. The atmosphere and psychology of it is otherworldly to someone who just stepped into it, cold. Very bizarre. |

I'm not sure how anyone can watch thugs get paid millions to play a child's game with a ball.
On the other hand I like college football. Something about watching a bunch of thugs play for a chance at millions that I kinda dig.

Working/middle class people are. A majority of middle class people do not approve of this bullshit and are/will be tuning out. NASCAR tried to broaden their marketshare outside the southeast, to markets that had no interest in it (and still don't). They didn't outright spit in the face of their fanbase (although some would argue that cutting down the number of short track races did). They weren't busy trying to virtue signal and intentionally put fans in the backseat. Virtue signaling and being PC/ cozy with the left is job #1 for a frighteningly large number of companies. Not profit. I will say I do not understand the end game on that whole deal. |

NFL: wall of text. 
This is 2017, bitches. When the President makes a clear 7 word tweet, you've got 20, maybe 30, words to make a rebuttal. "It's complicated" is no longer an acceptable answer. That's how we GOT here. FtNFL. |

As a 1st generation immigrant to the USA, my family and I sacrificed a lot to be Americans. But we believed that America is special and wonderful. I'm a military veteran and retired LEO.
Now, these degenerated thugs, taking every advantage and benefit provided by American society, and making millions playing a kids game, are telling me that I'm a slave owning racist who is to blame for the behavior of black men who while committing crimes are injured or killed by police who are trying to enforce the laws that the rest of us respect and obey. And they want me to cheer and root for them??!! Fuck these ignorant dilettantes. If I ever watch an NFL game again, I will be cheering for the worst, most brutal, bone crushing, permanent brain damage resulting hits, regardless of team or player. I want to see mother fuckers carried off the field every play! |
