Thank you to Freepers who boycotted the Super Bore/Bowl

Posted on 02/06/2018 11:36:48 AM PST by beergarden

You have placed your country above a stupid game. Isn't it great a number of Freepers here put their money where their mouths are and when they say they boycott the NFL..they actually do. Unlike some..well, never mind ;)

No NFL for our family including my college age son. He says if his roommate puts the game on and leaves the room he turns it off. Proud of my Trump supporting son. He was even brave enough to put a Trump bumper sticker on his car. His college room wall decor is a Yuge American Flag.

Hahaha I know you have problems with reading comprehension so let me explain see your link is what’s called an editorial it’s an opinion think of it like a vanity post. You can tell that because it won’t contain factual information instead it will contain guesses and estimates and will say things like “Could Cost League $920 Million In Telecast Profits” see it says COULD not did. See my link is a news story like this:
http://www.businessinsider.com/fox-gets-500-million-from-super-bowl-2017-2

And will say things like “The Super Bowl snagged 111.3 million viewers, according to Nielsen, which was the smallest audience for the game in four years, according to Reuters.

But Fox still got a huge payday, generating a whopping $500 million in ad revenue” and “The advertising revenue from Super Bowl LI (2017) stood at around 385 million U.S. dollars.”

But how did the NFL get your money?

Just saw my son’s FB post about the Superbowl:

There was a game? I went to church, watched the Office; worked out at the fire station, and did fire apparatus checks.

I find that the generation Z and late Millennials are very very based and awake. They remind me of my grandparents who were turn of the 20th century births and my parents who grew up in depression and forties times. Very traditional and very conservative.

The kids all want to get married have a picket fence house and make a big family. Not just the religious ones either.

I didn’t watch.
I boycotted.

Boycotts work fine.
Mmm.. cancelled Sunday night game!
And if you, as you claim, do know how ad revenue works then you know how they get your money.

I sure hope the mods never suspend edzo4, who is completely clueless about how much harm it does to its pet issues.

I didn’t watch a minute of it, but I can’t say I boycotted. I’ve just completely lost interest in the NFL. Wouldn’t have watched it even if there were no Kaepernick.

I’m still trying to figure out how they figure that boycotting the BLM supporting NFL is somehow supporting the BLM thugs.
They haven’t even tried explaining that pretzel logic.

You didn’t say my money you Said OUR money.

You keep asking if I know how ad Revenue Works obviously you don’t so let me explain the NFL already got paid by all the television that works till 2022 like in the article I posted that you can’t comprehend see NBC loses ad money if they don’t air a game not the NFL.

How did the NFL get your money?

On bender's live nfl threads, some of them (including edzo4) have been repeating the lie long enough that the nfl boycotters are virtue signaling. Somehow, they've made the additional yet mistaken leap in logic that if the boycotters are virtue signaling, then they are also pro-BLM.

It's why I so badly want edzo4 to have lifetime privs on FR because it is truly deranged in favor of things FR holds in contempt. We need edzo4 to represent the dark side.

No, they commented.
Everyone can and is free to comment.
Or do you think that somehow supports BLM too?

Right you know what I should watch you tell then what they should comment on. Man you are really full of yourself. So which team did you boycott? How did the NFL get your money? How did they NFL lose money from NBC not televising a game they already paid for? And how does this quote below relate to you antifa and blm and your common enemy the NFL?

“The enemy of my enemy is my friend is an ancient proverb which suggests that two opposing parties can or should work together against a common enemy. The earliest known expression of this concept is found in a Sanskrit treatise on statecraft, the Arthashastra, which dates to around the 4th century BC, while the first recorded use of the current English version came in 1884”

“Right you know what I should watch you tell then what they should comment on. “

Isn’t that what your post 34 was?
Presuming to tell us that boycotting BLM supporters was supporting BLM?
Isn’t that what your entire anti-boycott whine has been?
My my my, how lacking in self awareness.

So by your logic I’m sure you boycotted the state of the union after all How could you support it when half the attendees are anti-cop anti-flag anti-America anti-trump.

What you don’t judge every American based on the opinion of a few liberal retards?

Strange, I do the same thing I don’t judge the entire NFL based off the actions of a few liberal retards.
