Goodell putting a positive spin on ratings that fell 9.7% this year and 8% in 2016. The main difference is that NFL ratings matter a lot more since it's live. Many shows gain large audiences on DVR and streaming over the course of a week. The NFL doesn't have that luxury.

He has to justify his multi-million dollar raise.

The top 50 shows on broadcast TV must be rubbish then.

A bit like claiming Hillary Clinton is the best looking woman in Chappaqua NY.

The players have shown disrespect to many who pay lots of money to watch them. The customers of the NFL are not going to forget, especially if their teams are losing games. People will turn to Golf or Fishing or Hunting. Why should football be important in our lives?

He’s a LIBERAL. Hired Joe Lockhart the Clinton mouthpiece, who has issued personal attacks on Trump as official NFL statements. NFL Now stands for Nefarious Friggin Liberals.

So Godell will pick up the tab when advertisers demand refunds for the lack of capacity anticipated?

It is a numbers game. When those numbers turn from % to $, Godell may feel some heat under the collar.

If goodell were the spokesperson of the titanic as it was taking on water, he would declare, "See, we're doing just fine, the boat remains afloat."

Hmmm, it appears that the “Rule of the Lowest Common Denominator” applies to our elite. (Emphasis on common and low)

Examples: Clintons (both), Dorkbama, Holder and the following idiotess, Schumer, Pelosi, Boxer, that Texas female cretin, et al.

And to think that CNN actually pushes out that Trump inept.
Can one imagine any of the examples named above ever holding a real job? (Or even getting hired for one, save for quotas?)

People are watching less and less prime time TV these days. My 12 year old son watches homemade videos on YouTube. When I was his age, I was glued to the TV.

I guess Goodell is okay with declining ratings. Hope the owners, the players, and the advertisers share his view.

Goodell’s continued employment and giant salary is sufficient reason to run the NFL into the ground.

I noticed the Chief’s Arrowhead Stadium was full but I looked at tickets earlier in the week and they were selling pretty cheap. I’ve NEVER seen cheap tickets like that before for a Chiefs home playoff game.

Goodell and his commie cronies have done more damage to the league than they ever will admit.

Sure thing, it’s fine, just keep doing what you are doing.
Add some more penalties and plays to review if you get a chance.

Great. But I won’t be watching until the SJW nonsense stops.
Or spending a dime.

They gotta get their streaming operations updated and rolled out. I think their biggest problem, outside the boycott, is cable cutters, losing their NFL and not really caring.
