Why don’t they just change their name to the Black Lies Matter Football League (BLMFL) and be done with it.

national anthem protests are one factor in TV ratings dropping.

the owners are now dealing with a surge in ticket holder requests for refunds

One factor causing a surge?

Yea, right!

Didn't the Ivy League MBA schools teach our elite CEOs that pissing on your customers is a poor business model?

One of the enjoyable moments and any sports event is the singing of the National Anthem. It’s corny, but sweet.

We learned the meaning of the words in grade school and sang it once a week in class. When a breeze touches your face during the anthem, you’re reminded of a lifetime of doing this same thing in the same way.

It’s one of the pleasures of being an American.

The biggest thing wrong with the NFL is that it is impossible for every team to lose.

CNN Anchor: NFL Owners Have Data That Support Trump’s Claim on NFL Protests Hurting TV Ratings

I'm confused. Did Trump nosedive the numbers or did the leftist radical BLM protests against the entire nation bring down ratings?

NFL owners so far siding with their players for their right to free speech...

Idiot writer. No one is trying to take away the player's right to free speech. They still have free speech, otherwise they'd be in jail. But other people have rights as well, so tickets sales and ratings are down, way down.

IF.... we can just hold.

The teams have to be easily wealthy enough to hold out for a few weeks to see if we are going to hold the line stay bound together to shut the NFL OFF.

You know that not all NFL players, coaches, and support staff are in this- they are just being intimidated. Why can’t someone file a complaint about these morons creating a hostile work environment? That is what keeps everyone in line in a regular work place.

Why, of course. Only one factor. I know a lot of people are staying home with the TV off because of Global Warming and drowning polar bears. Keep whistling in that graveyard, son, and hope that Something isn't whistling back.

The problem for the NFL owners is that this whole stinking issue got started right at the beginning of the season. Which means that, they still have 12 more games in the regular season to suffer more losses, and the whole playoff season and the super bowl.

Now, if this whole mess had occurred towards the end of the season, they would be going into the off-season claiming success for the “kneelers” and the NFL owners.

Now, there is no way that the NFL owners can claim any kind of success against Trump and the anthem-loving/flag-loving Americans.

Did anyone see the Mercedes Benz stadium at the start of Falcons-Bills game??

it was 1/3 full

I think NFL owners are getting the message loud and clear.

We did not turn on the Thursday night game, nor did we turn on the Sunday games in our house. I hate it. I love football, but my country is way to important than to have it destroyed by a bunch of hood rats.

Monument tear down, Antifa, BLM, white supremacist protests, NFL kneeling during anthem, anti-Trump protest and on and on are tied together. Leftist propaganda media/hollyweird helping perpetuate the destruction of the American constitution, culture, language, way of life.
