Is NFL dying?

forbes.com/sites/brandonkatz/2016/09/20/nfls-monday-night-football-continues-to-fall-in-ratings/#3954c7892e8d

yes. soon all sports will be hockey

MNF is dieing because of ESPN

The NFL is doing fine

The league needs more young super stars desu. I'm sure the league is fine, but with Rodgers faltering, and Brady only having a few years left, there could be a serious issue regarding star qbs.

Well it's SORT of dying because of the NFL.

The league has never forgiven Disney for moving MNF from ABC to ESPN in their endless quest for shekels. As a result, the NFL reshuffled the pecking order for which order networks get to pick primetime matchups in. NBC gets first pick, CBS/Twitter now get second pick, and ESPN goes last, so they get stuck with the shittiest primetime matches.

Are you fucking retarded?

>he posted it again
>literally does it for free everyday

>daily thread always about MNF
>OP is always a 3rd world faggot
>kek nfl is dying
The NFL is continually growing. e$pn alone spends nearly 2 billion a year for the worst rated game of the week. e$pn is a sinking ship and with cord cutters there is no way they will allow them to renew their contract in five years meaning someone richer with more ad revenue potentially will take over thickening their wallets even more

They need to switch to an online subscription model

>mike tirico is gone

color me surprised

>using ad hominem instead of refuting my argument
no user. you are retarded

What did he mean by this?

Snf is down too

What they need to do is find a way to give out more 15 yard penalties.

ESPN pays $1.9 billion per year for MNF.
17 games.
$111 million per game

MNF had an audience of 12.14m.

They paid $9.21 for each person that watched it.

Rugby soon desu senpaitachi

i don't think so

Yeah. College football is so much more authentic that even the non-college grads are starting to follow t

Oh look it's this thread again xD

The new announcer is fucking BORING. Mike Tirico was the best thing about MNF and Gruden can't carry a show himself.

Also, they always pick the worst possible matchups for MNF. It's always two shit tier teams competing in a game that doesn't matter.

why are you shitposting?

Dying might be a little harsh. But I think fans are getting tired of all the political bullshit. ESPN, Bob Costas,. Colin Pencildick and his kneeling fag buddies.

> authentic

Just jump off a bridge.

You literally remade france's thread from a couple of days ago. You used the same source and even took his op image. What are you doing son?

>this autistic
lmaoing @ your life

uh, he got you. what the fuck is wrong with you.

>get btfo
>time to call everyone autistic
what are you doing son?

Hopefully.

Autists

>proxy faggot calling anyone autistic

>look mom i know how to use archive !!

>tripfag calling others autists

>suspend the best and most popular player in the league
>rating drop through the floor

>this autistic

>bumping a dead thread 8 hours later
you don't have any semblance of a life, do you?

Secretariat

>counting the hours that a thread hasn't been bumped
Holy shit what a sad, mediocre life. Is that why you spend all your day here?

How many times have you made this thread in the last week? 3 at least

I hope so, sports are the lowest form of entertainment. The only reason I'm here today is shitpost about the niggers fucking with the panthers game.

Put MNF on broadcast TV again, and people will watch it.

>tv ratings

Monkeybro, even the NFL itself is streaming shit on Twitter now

Get with the times gramps

Agree

Thanks for being rational and coherent, unlike other people of your kind itt

How far into your ladyboy transition are you?

>shitposter automatically triggered
kek

Yes

>the game is fading fast at the ground level (Pee-wee, HighSchool, ect) whites are fleeing the game. no more traditional stand in the pocket QBs
>has become a gateway to get out of the hood and into college. no passion for the game just looking for a quick scholarship
>NFL meta has devolved into get a dual-threat QB, complete screen passes, run on run downs, defense follows the flowchart.
>less parity than ever before. We already know who is playoff caliber and who is not. High draft picks rarely turn teams around.
>Liberal pandering, first the breast cancer pink crap now BLM kneeling for the anthem

my speculation:
>ratings continue to plummet
>advertising begins to pull out in 2018
>salary cap has to go down
>players get mad because less money
>2021 lockout players and owners are too butthurt season is lost
>NFL panics and send the Jaguars to London thinking that dosh will save them
>only pisses off ture American fans even more
>bankrupt by 2030

Compared to itself, yes. Compared to other programs? No.

I am sick and tired of the leftist narratives that have bled into every fucking thing in life.

Now players are black victims, the front office are the evil Republicans and refs are the cops shooting innocent niggers.

>presidential race breifly dominating prime time tv
>HURR HANDEGG IS KILL GAIZ

>needs someone to answer a stupid as fuck question
Sorry kiddo do some research before you post

Scientists say the last football player has already been born

no.

>on a shit channel
>should have one of the two best games but always seems to get one of the two worst
and isn't their studio coverage done by 4 people, 3 of which are former average QBs that all look like they're undergoing chemo?

And you should read the thread, retard.

Which part, where you continuously bump your own thread or the part where you call everyone an autist

>this triggered

Thanks for proving my point

thank you for proving mine kek

>all this american spam

I hope so. The jews have gone too far with the ads and bullshit.

...

...

...

>Not as much old people who still owns a Nielsen box watched MNF this year compared to last year
>Old people are predominately conservative and jingoistic
>Still top rated program

Huezil plagerizing threads like they plagerizie planes

Kill yourself

>dumb, obese pig replying to a 1 day old post just because he was triggered
Oh god this feels so good.

>same day, 15 hours old
>1 day old

>counting the days that a thread has been alive
Holy shit what a sad, mediocre life. Is that why you spend all your day here?

>dumb pig is so weak at banter he needs to copy me
Heh.

good work brazil

many keks were had

reasons i don't watch football
>unpredictable commercial breaks
>players cheat during every play and are only caught a fraction of the time, at the ref's leisure it seems
>people look like absolute morons when they scream at the television

It'll be dead in 30 years

Unlike the MLB you don't have a country full of spic children picking this retarded game up

MNF just sucks. It is always shitty matchups that I never watch. It is also the only game that is cable only. So if I want to watch it I have to find a live stream.

>write the same articles about baseball
>the 2 most successful professional sports leagues in the world

nope.

Yes. Concussions will slowly (but steadily) kill it. It's already underway at the youth level.

Soccer, Baseball, and Basketball will feast.

kek la np that's why we are here

i had many laughs too

I really like to watch football, but these few first MNF were a pain to watch. The coverage isn't as good it were in past years.

Yes, who watches this cuck shit. You might as well just start blowing your corporate overlords if you watch this glorified commercial.

Can MNF fire Sean McDounagh or whoever his name is and put Tony Kornheiser with Coach Gruden? Or move Al Michaels with Gruden so Tirico and be with Collinsworth on SNF?

Idk but where I'm from I'm starting to see amateur rugby leagues everywhere. Suppose I can't blame parents for not wanting their kids involved in football.

>you will never forget about school tomorrow and watch MNF with your dad and bro again, while all of you do impressions of john madden
I miss Madden

THIS

McDonough is just a bad fit for the NFL. He's like Gus Johnson who needs shootouts and spaghetti in order to get the best out of him but you don't see much of that in the NFL.

Who would be better then?

The NFL has the oldest viewership of any major sport, basically the Fox News of sports. It's dying because its viewers are dying.

>is NFL dying?

I think it is. Fewer and fewer kids play football every year and more and more adults are learning (via the Internet) that the NFL is rigged and they're getting tied of seeing the same teams get away with murder season after season.

Needs more commercials

this

cable TV is dying

this fucking meme needs to be phased out because it isn't even funny and makes you come off as a retard

MLB.TV is the number one for years straight streaming serbive for a sport

NFL Redzone DirectTV was so successful it created a NFLNetwork Version of it.

NHL has one of the most tech sauvy audiences and a rising streaming service

don't know much about NBA

but point is the leagues have adapted , cable TV buy TV rights for teams , giving those teams money but whether people watch or not has nothing to do with anything once the ink is dry
