Kinda redundant but FU Kenny Stills.
I’ve been reading from Freepers that stadiums were full and that business was booming at some games. Baltimore was a rain out.
In lieu of attending these NFL games, sports fans should save their $$$ and play with their kids and grandkids more. You can have a great dialogue over a game of checkers.
The Chargers play in a soccer stadium with a capacity of 25,000. Observers thought that most of the fans that attended the game on Sunday were Chiefs fans. LA hasn’t been able to support one NFL team, much less two. The Chargers belong in San Diego. While the team sold out their season holders tickets, apparently most of them end up on Stub Hub.

Nike’s Favorability Drops Double Digits After New Kaepernick Campaign
BY ZACHARY STIEBER

Consumer opinion of Nike has dropped significantly following the announcement of a new campaign featuring controversial former NFL player Colin Kaepernick.
A report from Morning Consult found that Nike’s favorability has fallen by double digits following the campaign announcement, which prompted some customers to burn their Nike gear.
“Before the announcement, Nike had a net +69 favorable impression among consumers, it has now declined 34 points to +35 favorable,” Morning Consult stated. Additionally, before the announcement, 49 percent of Americans said they were either “absolutely certain” or “very likely” to buy Nike products. That number declined to 39 percent post-campaign.
Digging In
Nike’s favorability dropped in every single consumer group, including in 18- to 21-year-olds (81 percent to 51 percent); Gen X (75 percent to 39 percent); and Boomers (68 percent to 20 percent).
Favorability dropped the least among three groups: Democrats (74 percent to 65 percent); blacks (82 percent to 74 percent); and Millennials (64 percent to 52 percent).

No cause for concern. “Real businessmen” (and businesswomen) will figure out how to deal with it. By the end of the season we should see bookies giving odds on attendance (a real bet if sellouts aren’t the norm) and over/unders on “ratings decline from same week last year”.
We’ll all be able to bet and bookies will make their cut just like in the past. It’s just that Nielsen rather than ESPN will deliver the “final score” to determine the winners. /sarc
Loved the one comment posted on the news article:
“If you ever want to fill your stadium again you can ask D J Trump to hold a MAGA rally!”
I’m one of the Freepers who did not watch. My GF and I went to the Santa Monica Pier which was more entertaining than hoodlums who hate America..
I hope after the Cowboys’ lackluster performance yesterday, soon to see JerryWorld half-empty.
With the ridiculous amount of money it costs to park there alone, it’s just not worth it.
I realized several years ago that the NFL is not essential to my happiness.
Surprising, I realized in the last 48 hours that women’s tennis is not essential to my happiness, either.
Freedom!
No Fans Left
I’d rather watch paint dry.
Haven’t seen a minute of this anti-American garbage since 2015.
The NFL went to a paper-less ticket system this season. All tickets were on smart phones. There were lots of problems with fans still outside the stadiums as the 2nd quarter started. And then, there have been lots of empty seats in stadiums with lousy teams for many decades. Atlanta, Oakland, and LA come to mind. If a team is worthy of the play offs that team will more than likely have solid attendance.
Hahaha. May the nfl rot.
The NFL has committed Suicide already, they are Dead Men Walking!
Wimper?
Haven't watched a single game in over two years. Used to be a die-hard fan and watched the New England Turncoats and Dallas Cowgirls, until they took their collective masks off and openly showed how much they hate America and hate their own, now former fan base. The only thing they really care about is taking your money while they habitually spit on the flag, the country and us.
The NATIONLESS felon league can rot!
