That’s a fact.
It’ll be a condo for out of work players.
Hahaha. NeverWatchAgain league. These LIB idiot owners and blm players can KMA. LOL.
No more tax dollars to the NFL.
Because of the pink shoes?
You sound like an ideological leftist. Sorry, but not everything this politics.
Brady does whatever his wife tells him to do. He is a fair weather friend.
Archie made the deal for his son. He would not let Eli to be drafted by San Diego.
MSNBC explains to their viewers/readers that the boycott is made up of people mad that no team has picked Kapernick. Seriously, and their viewers believe them.
It's a distraction, a spoonful of sugar to help the medicine go down. If TV viewership is really off 20 points, next season the hammer is going to drop on all of this "kneeling before the game" foolishness. That 100 million to "Social Justice" gives them something to point at when the axe falls.
20% of TV revenue is real money, for sure it will get the owner's attention.
While not a direct answer to your post, I can't help but thinking that Bill B. and Tom must reflect on the fact that, while they are well paid, Matt Lauer was getting around $25 million/year. I think they work a lot harder than Matt did... at least than Matt did at his actual job, rather than his, er, hobby.
“Sorry, but not everything this politics”
The left has politicized football, they are using it for political ends, and many people are rejecting that.
Football has become politics, like the latest move from NFL to donate hundreds of millions to prog causes in the hopes that they’ll buy off the anthem protesters.
“What would Lombardi do? What would Bill Walsh, Joe Gibbs, and the other legends do?”
All those people you mentioned are white. They don’t matter anymore.
One suspects that you are already there.
I'm not an MBA, however there should be such a thing as an inverse multiplier (if not, there should be) in which losses compound in ways not easily seen.
Perhaps a biz expert could straighten me out on this.
Brady was front and center with the whole locking arms stuff.
Bellicheat and Kraft both rolled over and heaped praise on the snowflake players and their "protest".
The entire Patriot organization trashed DJT out of the gate. They are no better than the worst of the NFL.
They do have a “deflated-balls” problem after all.
Wait until they see what happens to season-ticket sales after this year...
This MBA calls it circling the toilet bowl.. :-)
It starts slowly and then all of a sudden bye bye...
As gargantuan as NFL economics is, that business might have 20% fat to burn on a one-time basis, but 20% down on a longer term basis is a downsize. They won't get the difference from the federal government in an 0bama-administration GM bailout arrangement, not under Trump. They won't get it from boosting ticket prices because those just aren't large enough to make a difference. It has to be TV advertisers, and those pay for performance, not promises.
