Part of the problem is they air games nobody really cares about.

Cross-conference games are not as important as in-conference and in-division games.

Divisional Rivalries are the ticket...................

Even without the kneelers, I think the NFL’s popularity was waning. Every season is the same boring story. Everyone waits to see which NFC team will play the Patriots in the Super Bowl.

In 2017, the NFL already had season ticket holders on the hook in terms of money.

The thing to watch now is the season ticket holder numbers for 2018. Aside from empty seats, this will be a bellweather wrt people being fed up with the conduct of the NFL and the football players.

I did not watch it. I only watched basketball(college and NBA). Though they shouldn’t be playing any game on Christmas.

The college championship bowl next week may find similar slump — since it seems to be a regional game. And, it seems that ESPN is the only channel that will carry it.

Think about it, spending big time and the dime on these players who go up and down the field game after game after game . . . putting big bucks in the pockets of these anti-patriotic owners and players . . .is it worth it? Role models for kids. . .NOT.

The BLM’s got a good coach Jack Del Rio fired. I wonder if Pete Carroll is next?

Gotta hand it to the FNFL. They have earned this, outright. Well deserved. Can’t wait to see just how poorly they numbskulls, Snowflakes and thugs do in the coming year.
