The NFL ratings slump is getting worse

[Thin Lizzy]

Gee, that’s awful

The TV audience for NFL games steepened its slide in Week 11, losing 1 million viewers versus last year’s season-to-date average.

The 6.3 percent slump — worsening from comparable declines of 5.6 to 5.7 percent during the previous three weeks — plagued a week whose off-the-field drama made gridiron tackling seem almost tame by comparison.

No shit common sense would tell you if you disregard the United States and make racial slurs andtackles your hurting business. If that's was whites it would be hell on Earth.

Good. Fuck ‘em.

More and more people are simply tired of overpaid entertainers, PC horseshit and whining darkies.

Hope the NFL suffers major losses.

"Viewership fell 18 percent year over year in Week 10, which ended Monday, with lower ratings in all six game-time windows. JPMorgan analyst Alexia Quandrani noted that the slip in Week 10 puts the NFL's season-to-date audiencedecline at roughly 7 percent."

Yes and those shit skins had to get real jobs..

[Thin Lizzy]

They don’t have the sense to realize that the real boss in a free market is the consumer. Nobody has to watch that shit.

We did so because we enjoyed it. Now that it’s unenjoyable we’ve found something else to do.

What about game attendance statistics? Or merchandise sales?

I don't think a 5-6% drop in television ratings is hurting their pockets yet.

I expect to see a big decline next season. Pretty much everyone had already bought their tickets before the season and as a result don’t want to let them go to waste.

x2.  Football has gotten way too big the past few years.  These superfans you see around that have all the jerseys and stuff are usually a little nuts.  I remember watching some games with my grandpa back in the 80's, but it was cool back then.  You didn't have the internet and all the shows cramming it down your throat.  And you never saw political agendas on the field.  You could just watch the game and then it was over.

Attendance is down as well.

Sports is nothing but "group think."

A bunch of people regressing to promitive group behavior in order to prove that "my side is better than yours."

When you look at sports, it's really not much different than how our ancestors acted when forming groups. The similarities are striking--face painting, costumes, specific rituals (dancing and chanting), celebrations, specfific types of food and drink,  rules governing behavior, and a sense of superiority. The shared experience is a strong one!

It's called tribalism...

TV ratings have declined because people are streaming content from sources like Kodi and that isnt easily measurable.

HOW BOUT DEM COWBOYS!!!!!!!

Good.  Maybe the zombies who watch this shit will actually wake up one day.

All sports is a complete waste of time.  I laugh hard at anyone who screams at the tee-vee over this nonsense.

Politics and religion = the ultimate "group think"

Pro sports.

Never once cared for any of it.

Tight white pants vs thongs? Seems like most in this thread are choosing the thong.

This is wonderful news. Fuck those cocksuckers. I went from an NFL fanatic, never missing a game, to not watching a single snap since Week 2. Once these commie fucks began totally disrespecting our police, military, flag, country and all things authority, I tapped out.
