And the Bills still have a shot at the playoffs.

I have noticed the last few months while channel surfing that QVC and/or HSN are running a lot of segments on NFL jersies and items.

Maybe it is the season or maybe it is warehouses full of NFL merchandise that is slow-selling.

Yeah you’re going to be seeing 3rd world miscreants sporting officially licensed merch as they chant and whoop up the latest machete attacks on the other tribe.

I completely get not throwing away a family trip related to this year’s NFL boycott. And yes I agree, next year things will tumble down further.

Trust this. As long as Roger Goodell and his Liberal comrades are running (ruining) the NFL. I will not wast another penny or a moment of my time on them. I will not give them any aid and comfort what-so-ever.

My wife has also expressed her gratitude that my Sundays are now spent in my shop, her garden or just doing what ever we want to do. On the plus side, it has been a very liberating to not be wasting the entire day sitting in front of the flat screen.

My brother was a Bills fan. His family still is. You must live on the western part of the state. I live in Central NY, actually Rome to be exact. Born and raised in Rochester, NY.

In the glory days of football a stadium like this would be full—snow or no snow.

The roar of the crowds in a place like Buffalo—”defense”, “defense”—while the snow came down really hard—was deafening and very intimidating for the visiting team.

I feel like I have lost an old friend to meth addiction—leftism destroys everything in its wake.

Direct TV this week offered the NFL ticket for free to all existing subscribers for the rest of the season. Read into that what you’d like.

“next year’s season ticket sales that will reveal the actual impact.”

For sure. We’ll want to make note of not just the number of season tickets sold, but also the price, as compared to previous seasons.

I’ve little doubt the season tickets will sell out, but at what price?

Are you sure that isn’t a picture from President Trump’s Rally in Florida a few days ago? LOL

“A true current indicator now would be revenue/attendance at sports bars.”

Living in the Philly burbs, I used to avoid the bars during eagles games. (I was a Steelers fan)

This year it hasn’t been a problem. Plenty of room at the bar during the games. The usual sea of green jerseys has been reduced by half.

Gee, do you think the NFL Front Office is getting the message yet that our National Anthem matters?

No, the team owners and the league brass are probably convinced that fans are boycotting the games, because the NFL isn't doing enough to support the kneelers and their left wing causes.

some American men would rather watch these anti-American thugs than turn the crap off.

Good ole redneck who lives across the alley from me, watches the NFL on his outdoor big screen every Sunday. I just shake my head.

Cincy was maybe its emptiest ever and many other stadiums were very low.

Football has all kinds of problems and downturn attendance money will hurt badly

oh nooooo,
It is last years election.
It is racism.
It is so many other options.
Starting to sound like Hillary, hang on, more excuses coming soon.
I just know that for 60+ years I faithfully watched the NFL every weekend.
Since these babosos stated their crap last year I have not watched 6 minutes total. These clowns can kiss my rear.
Hell, I’ll watch curling before i watch the nfl.
