“........The last two seasons have been a time of shrinking viewership.......”
You haven’t seen anything yet, wait until the next two season and beyond. People have found they don’t need the NFL to survive, the whining and tears tells us the National Felon League needs US, yes “We, The People”.
NO NFL football here so like a bad marriage, it’s over!
And, usually, there’s an old Jimmy Stewart movie on Sunday afternoon on another channel...
I'll believe it when the almighty NFL games STOP taking precedent over EVERYTHING ELSE that airs on television channels today.
Fox just announced my favorite show, The Orville, and a slew of other shows (Gotham, etc.) have been "delayed to a midseason premiere" and won't air new seasons until freakin' Dec. 28! Why? Because the NFL's Thursday Night Football has hijacked that ENTIRE evening for themselves, and even though football fans can literally watch freakin' football games WHEREEVER AND WHENEVER THEY WANT, they somehow STILL need to override MY television shows so I'm unable to watch the entertainment I enjoy when it was SUPPOSED to premiere in the fall.
If the NFL was really "committing suicide" and the "ratings were plummeting" and "nobody is watching" then they TV networks wouldn't be falling all over themselves to kiss the NFL's butt and make THEIR stupid games priority #1 on TV.
Like I said, I'll believe it when I see it.
