Cowboys TV ratings in Dallas-Fort Worth are tanking
Sports Day ^ | Oct 14, 2017 | Barry Horn

Any television show or any sporting event would take a rating of 30.0 in the Dallas-Fort Worth market and laugh all the way to the bank. It's a terrific number. It means that an average of 30 percent of all homes with televisions in the area were tuned in at any moment. That translates to approximately 794,550 homes.

Relatively speaking, however, those are low numbers for a Green Bay Packers-Dallas Cowboys matchup. But that's what Sunday's down-to-the-wire Packers 35, Cowboys 31 at AT&T Stadium scored locally for Fox on KDFW (Channel 4).

Consider this: Last season's Cowboys at Packers game, also played in October, earned a 37.0 in the same 3:25 p.m. time slot. The 30.0 marks a drop of 19 percent. Put another way, it means 209,408 fewer homes tuned in.

Too late Jerry, 3 weeks ago you could have put your foot down, instead of kneeling.

The NFL is dying a slow and painful death!

The NFL shield is now a symbol of the Left and it's hatred for the U.S.

You and your unpatriotic QB can certainly GO. I lost all respect for him when he tweeted the photo of the photographers and mocked patriotic Americans. If my QB had done that...I would never tune them in again. But I guess some people need their fix.

The smug look of his on that day was quite something.
He really thought he was clever to straddle the issue.

Kneeling down to a pack of racists was just wrong on so many levels for true Americans. No free person should kneel to anyone our thing. Only kneel to God in prayer

Riding in the straddle.

Playing in the middle of the road ends up with the expected consequence no matter which way it is coming from.

One would think of the most famous of Solomon’s deeds of wisdom, the two mothers fighting to claim that a single baby belonged to one or the other with no way to prove it materially, he did it with the heart.

Good! I know I’m not watching.

And at least that thug Ezekiel Elliott is finally sitting his ass down.

And their season is pretty much over anyway, with the Iggles running away with the division.

I posted a comment late last season that Dak would probably never see another 13-wins season. Most of the competition last year was mediocre when the two teams played.

3 losses already this season means it isn’t looking too good for him or the ratings.

Liberals like Joe Lockhart, Clinton’s press secretary and Obama buddy, weaseled their way into executive positions at the NFL, and hoped to turn the NFL, typical Trump base supporters, against him.

That backfired big time.

But what does he care? His stupidity cost the NLF hundreds of millions, but Lockhart doesn’t have to give back any of his salary.

The dog ate my homework...

Everyone else does it...

Everybody else parents let them...

Everyone else has one...

All the other girls wear skirts this short...

Everyone else can stay up that late...

We didn’t mean it to be disrespectful...

We must speak out against our people being killed by the police...

We must speak out against a racist economic system...

We must speak out against how poorly we are treated...
