There’s gonna by a lot of empty seats this Sunday...all across the country.
NFL lost THE GAME.
Good.
The owners are locked into high dollar contracts.
Fools and their money are soon parted!

The Booshies will be out in force with their bailouts ...
Pro Football or Our Nation
Choose wisely America
I hope this boycott lasts longer and is more effective than the Target boycott. That seems to be over and forgotten. And I can’t believe that Jerry Jones locked arms with the Cowboys last night.
Good!
The NFL and players had a wonderful chance to rise above the issue and publicly acknowledge that they understood the kneeing and staying in the clubhouse were not message they were hoping to convey.... and that they heard.... and will make sure the fans understand they truly support our country, flag, anthem and service men and women.
After the debacle in England (a true embarrassment, no other word for it) and teams not coming to the field.... the NFL really needed to rise to the occasion Monday night. Unfortunately for them, they fumbled the football once again....
The hawk fans are not alone... here in New York... the same is being voiced. I will sit out all NFL games until I see how the NFL handles this going forward.
Bendy, you know how this works...
We (patriots) must realize that both Neilson and Arbitron use extrapolation results in their data gathering (e.g. one TV represents 1.25K households). When contacted to be a “Neilson Family” or “Arbitron Arbitor” (henceforth “N&A”), agree to their terms and diligently complete the requested info for the time period. Only our participation will drive the numbers.
That said, be aware that the 2017 NFL season “check has been cut”. No Sunday-by-Sunday change of viewership will alter what the advertisers get paid from the NFL for this year. The playoffs ^may^ be affected, but I doubt it. Also, note that N&A are subsidized by advertisers.
Now, be careful in how you agree to either N&A request. Both N&A ask specific questions about viewership. Be honest but offer no more info than asked (fully disclose your DVR use...they like that!). N&A are not beyond placing your TV-outlet on a certain list that might be eliminated from future consideration; and yes, they share background info.
What will be affected is Season 2018. Don’t feed the beast.
“I hope this boycott lasts longer and is more effective than the Target boycott. That seems to be over and forgotten. And I cant believe that Jerry Jones locked arms with the Cowboys last night.”
Forget Target. The nation forgot what happened with ChikFilA. That was more indicative of what Americans represent. ChikFilA should be a case study on what happens when the left takes on America. Instead, it fell off the radar.
Yes, the CFA buycott was incredible. Massive “protests” via mercantilism and no violence. Unlike the other side of the coin.
Took the right person on the right network to get the message out, though.
The Silent Majority was listening.
The bluest state in the nation is Washington. The reverence for the Seahawks here approaches worship. 12 flags, shirts, jerseys, stickers, etc are everywhere. It’s over the top.
I did not expect this. If this is happening in Seattle, the NFL is in trouble.
I’ve been following the Seachickens since the team was formed - my Dad’s college roommate was their first general manager, who once took a call about an apparently important trade during a dinner at my parent’s home. I hope these red diaper bonus babies lose every game from now on - I won’t be watching regardless, including the Super Bowl and I’ve seen every single one.
The owners are locked into high dollar contracts.””
I wonder if there is a ‘bankruptcy’ clause in any of those contracts??
Before long, there won’t be enough revenue to support the NFL.
A slow suicide—witnessed by millions.
