I believe it as it supports what the people I talk to say. I know cord cutters and I know people who are not watching the NFL anymore because of the stupid political BS. It seems to me that maybe cord cutting does not explain as much as people simply being turned off by the NFL’s politics or all sports ratings would be sucking just as badly as the NFL but they are not. I guess you think the empty seats and cheap ticket prices in the stadiums all season long were cord cutters too? I wish the NFL would get off all the dumb stuff including the stupid pink October thing and get back to just doing football Most people I know to don’t watch sports to be indoctrinated, they watch sports to be entertained. The NFL seems to have lost sight of that.
New England sold out every game, anecdotal evidence of some empty seats at a stadium for the 0-16 Browns the 5-11 Jets, The 3-13 Giants the 5-11 Broncos the 5-11 Bears the 5-11 Buccaneers the 4-12 Colts the 4-12 Texans the 6-10 Raiders or the 6-10 49’s or any of the other teams that stunk this year is not proof.
And i’ll say it again till i’m blue in the face boycotting the NFL over idiots like Colin kapernick is like boycotting the USA over liberals.
