The NFL opened it's season last night, in a time when the population is starving for something to distract them from the reality of Covid19 and the coming economic crisis...
Unemployment is still high and there are many businesses that are still not open to the public.
Add to this you had 2 very popular teams with 2 of the NFL's rising start Quarterbacks.
They were primed for a record setting night. but that was before the liberals'
decided that sports should be one of the venues that they push there socialist and communist ideas/
America tuned out the NFL and there Woke BS. Viewership was down 16.1% nearly 5 million fewer viewers WOW.
After trying to listen to sports radio these past few weeks I knew that I was not going to watch. But many tuned in, only to tune out a few minutes later, They had seen enough to tell them they were no longer interested in supporting such and anti American organization. Sadly these people will be counted among those that watched, And we will not likely know the full extent of the fall of until Sundays games.
What we do know is if the NFL does not find a way to bring those viewers back, The TV contracts are going to loose Hundreds of millions in revenue... Add to this most stadiums and Concession stands are closed, NFL gear sales are down, and the players are going to be finding themselves on the end of much smaller pay checks as the market has regressed to the viewership of 10 years ago.
And I for one think that maybe, just maybe, this is a good thing. Maybe a man playing a sport will not longer get paid so much that a factory working Dad can't afford to take there kids to a game. Maybe it is time that other things become important and Sports figures have to actually work for their fans instead of working against the USA
Boycott Professional Sports. Once upon a time I would have said never, but now.?????
