>If the NFL wasn’t worried before it should be now. For the third consecutive week football’s television ratings have declined.
>No more excuses for the bad ratings. Billie Gold, vice president and director of programming research at Amplifi, the global buying arm of media company the Dentsu Aegis Network, said it’s the lack of big games and prominent names that has sacked the league the past two weeks.
Take your ant-football OBVIOUS shilling elsewhere.

Why is America so racist and intolerant?
Julian Myers

Hunter Ramirez
This. Blame the nigger for people watching streams and not buying expensive ass cable.
Austin Lewis
because people from your side of the americas keep coming here and shitting up the place.
Jaxson Scott
>Chicago plays and doesn't pull the ratings >people act surprised people don't feel like watching shitty football teams
Guess the NFL is dying!
Zachary Cooper
Exactly total bullshit. Kapernick is a fraud. Twitter movement is fake. Article is fake. Ratings are fake. (((They))) really hate football and masculinity in general. There have been shills on this board all week trying to start anti-football nonsense. NFL is more popular than ever. Fuck off.
Sebastian Ramirez
Kelly should just let him stink it up until it's clear he's trash. He's bolting for college anyways, nothing to lose tBh.
Ayden Russell
>TV is dying. Then why did last year's Super Bowl have record ratings?
Logan Jackson
#BoycottNFL is the controlled opposition to the phony Kapernick protests.
The same people are behind both.
Guess who.
Christian Campbell
(((ratings)))
Dylan Rivera
Yes, but this years Super Bowl's ratings were down.
Jose Stewart
It's cause there's no star players anymore
Ethan Robinson
millennials want it to die because they're broke as fuck and they can't afford a basic cable package so they want everything to be online and free.
Alexander Wright
How much longer am I going to have to see this overpaid benchwarmer's face?
Luis Hughes
>millennials want it to die Nonsense. Millennials just watch it for free. NFL is even streaming some games on Twitter this year.
(((They))) just don't like that old media is dead, new media is decentralized, and they can't control the narrative anymore.
They're trying to get their claws into the NFL because it's maybe the most powerful media platform in the world, and they cant control it. It's really that simple.

Nolan Ross
FUCK the nfl i'm a millenial, college educated, and don't give a flying fucking shit about your plastic commercialized "sport" I root for my university team way harder than any fucking pathetic plastic trashcan franchise is in my state. Literally no one likes to watch your advertising gimmick of a sport. Just FUCK OFF and die.
Charles Turner
That's why they should just bring back Brady
Jeremiah Ross
Of course it's dying. No one under 30 watches TV.
That's why live events are so valuable now. They're the only thing that garners eyeballs. That's why they dumped all that race baiting garbage onto the Oscars last year, and it's why they're trying to do it with the NFL now.
Except, unlike the Oscars they don't own and control the NFL. So they just attack 24/7 and try to bring it to heel.
Smarten up sports fan bros, this is only the beginning.
Jordan Hernandez
Nice blog post

Chase Garcia
well you're wrong, i know a lot of people under 30 who watch tv including myself. maybe if all of you faggots got jobs you would realize that cable is one of the least expensive monthly bills you will be paying.
Parker Martinez
>football fan like me
Jacob Long
The NFL has the oldest viewership of all major sports. It's practically the Fox News of the sporting world, and its viewers are dying out faster than they can make new ones.
Kids just don't care about the "home team" like their parents and grandparents do, either, especially when 90% of the game is ads. Cord cutting is happening for a reason.
Caleb Sullivan
I keep wondering why people keep looking at the boycott as the reason why NFL TV ratings are on decline. What evidence do you have that there is a causal relationship between them, and that it isn't correlational?
Jack Baker
You still go to the record store to buy CDs too? FUCK OFF.
Joseph Jackson
360 degrees of shilling is 4 real
Jordan Harris
>Shills setting up a fake debate
Ryder Edwards
those things are incomparable, there isn't anything better than cable right now to watch television. i don't know why people think it's just going to disappear when it's such a crucial part of society and how people absorb information.
Alexander Taylor
Stop trying to make "shilling" happen. It's not going to happen.
Lincoln Garcia
Nigga plz. TV is done. Everyone knows it, and the NFL sure as fuck knows it. FUCK OFF SHILL.

Nathan Wilson
>giving money to the jews who run the cable monoliths
You're a fucking cuck.
Brayden Gray
Fuck cable. The sooner Time Warner goes bankrupt the better. They are criminal
Michael Bailey
yeah people said the same thing about radio many years ago, and even to this day. but it still goes on, so long as television has sports and the news, it won't ever die. like i said get a job, it's not as expensive as you think.
Jaxson Gonzalez
>there isn't anything better than cable right now to watch television.

again, incomparable. you are incredibly insecure if you think i'm trying to stir shit up. i've just seen a lot of people on here lately talking about how TV is dying and i simply don't understand their sentiments. and i get the feeling that they want it to die considering how often it is said.
Dylan Perez
Like you didn't make both posts. FUCK OFF SHILL
Carson Young
and how are you going to get those channels on a laptop? i'm not talking about youtube channels.
Colton Gray
nigga you're not as smart as you think you are. FUCK OFF

Asher Green
Blaine Gabbert sure is working out for the 49ers.
Christopher Long
ah there it is. that's what you want to be the truth, since you are a millennial who can't afford anything. but it isn't the truth. you can't get an entire cable package on the internet for free.

You can tell the truth by the ads that run. 50% of the ads on ESPN are for Viagra and the AARP.
Zachary Cooper
>60 posts >20 unique IDs
This entire thread is one mega autists calling everyone shills.
Luke Miller
that's one network, and the average age for sports viewers is around 50. watch a network that is targeted at your generation and you'll see ads for schools, cars, and electronics.
Jonathan Gomez
>No Brady >No Peyton >No Tebow
Can see why NFL's ratings are down. Make Donald Trump starting QB for the Cleveland Browns. He'll make Cleveland great again!
Ian Lee
or 20 people some of who have posted more than once.
Does CTR pay for a dynamic IP?
Nice old man reaction image too. You're really getting a feel for the culture around here.
Oliver Carter
>everything is about race/racism now
some "melting pot" we have here......
James Kelly
>watch a network that is targeted at your generation nigga plz. I'm old enough to remember when 50% of the commercials on ESPN where for beer and cars.
but those industries market in different ways now.
Because they're not fucking retards and know that the highly coveted 18-35 yo demographic doesn't watch tv.
Aaron Young
you're just remembering wrong then, they've always had viagra and cialis commercials.
Jason Price
The fucked up thing was the NFL is actually a unifying element between races and classes.
And these dickhead bankers/globalists/Illuminati/elites/Jews (whatever you want to call them) are trying to destroy it.
They're fucking evil.
Jason Walker
>they've always had viagra and cialis commercials. Nigga plz. Viagra has only been around for like a decade. There used to be no pharmaceutical ads on TV period.
Fuck off with your disinformation campaign.
Ayden Lee
wow you are really young aren't you? no pharmaceutical ads? they've had those at least since the 90's based on what i can remember. either way, the sporting demographics have not changed, espn shows ads for old people because they're a 24 hour network and a significant amount of their viewers are retirees.
Adam Moore
>bankers/globalists/Illuminati/elites literally all of these things are jews
Justin Brown
I'm old enough to remember NO pharmaceutical ads dickhead. You can't even get keepr own bullshit argument straight.
Kevin Jones
NFL: same shit, different week
And ESPN has made the NFL inescapable. It's all they talk about.
Angel Reed
yeah i know, i was being polite
Jonathan Bennett
ESPN/Disney is the WORST offender of this attach a fake bullshit narative to the NFL media platform move.
They're fucking done. The NFL doesn't need them and will never do another deal with them when they current one expires, AND THEY KNOW IT.
Kevin Murphy
This. Cutting the cord is a buzz-term of the wage slave poorfaggots. You dont have 120 bucks a month for FIOS?Then you're a fucking loser.
Matthew Roberts
it doesn't matter, they've always had the same demographic. ED drugs haven't always been around like you said but that's the same reason why they haven't always been marketing them. because they didn't exist.
Ethan Smith
nigga plz. no one is paying for cable tv anymore. it's not even a debate. the war is over, your side lost, go home.
Charles Garcia
It's like $300 and they make you pay for a landline that you don't even use.
Eli Gomez
i think we've found an autism gold mine.
Ethan Lopez
>My side What the fuck are you talking about? I have cable so I can watch the Yankees and Devils, and I get a million other things to watch.$130/month is nothing to me because I don't work at fucking Target like you, loser. Stay poor, faggot.
Adam Long
Honest answer. Because they streamed it online for free. Which was a genius idea.
Blake Williams
Lol my bill is 127/month for 100 up and down, and every sports channel except the mlb/nhl/NBA packages. But I root for local teams. You are obviously a teenager living at home and have no idea what shit costs.
Thomas White
Kek. You can pretty much name your own price with DirectTV now they're so desperate.
Jack Perez
>and they can't control the narrative anymore. that's what facebook is for
Christian Reyes
OMG!!!! Plz post link where we can get such an amazing deal!!!! It's like they're giving it away.
Jacob Jackson
well it's pretty natural, football and the super bowl in particular have had incredible increases in attraction to the mainstream for a good five or ten years now. was only a matter of time before the hysteria calmed down and more casual viewers got bored after a couple years. 18 million viewers is hardly dying, just a the beginning of a slide back to relatively normal figures. I don't even like cuckegg
Luis Lewis
TV is objectively terrible compared to the Internet and even Netflix. Surprised it's taking so long to die
Chase Sullivan
it's not going to ever die because unlike the internet you don't have to wait for it to buffer only to be five minutes behind what's actually happening, and unlike netflix it has live broadcasts.
Dylan Edwards
what kind of shit internet do you have paco
Ayden Nguyen
>Manning retires >Brady suspended >ratings go down
ITS CAUSE OF KAEPERNICK HES ALIENATING THE COVETED FOXNEWS DEMOGRAPHIC
Charles Gomez
What kind of shit tier Internet do you have? Besides that it's only going to get faster especially. Live events are already starting to get streamed too, which is the only current advantage of tv.
Daniel Hall
because the NFL is boring as fuck when you're not watching your team.
Lincoln Sanders
>The same people are behind both. >Guess who. YEP.
The people behind Kapernick and the 'conservatives' behind #BoycottNFL are the same people.
Hunter Hill
>what are regional monopolies
Hudson Garcia
no the current advantage of tv is having literally hundreds of stations that aren't broadcast ANYWHERE on the internet. and being able to just sit down and use a remote without having to hook up any outside devices. you guys are trying really, really hard to discredit something that is really, really good and i don't know why. oh wait, i do.
Jayden Phillips
I think alot of casual people got bored of fantasy football combined with the fall of that daily fantasy thing.
Carter Torres
maybe people are getting smarter and realizing the nfl is more of an ad revenue generator than a sports league. Also football is dying out
Leo Williams
>broadcast ANYWHERE on the internet like anyone needs to watch fucking American Pickers live or whatever.
So that's leaves live events ie award shows and sports.
I'm not gay or a women so I don't give a shit about award shows.
That leaves sports. I follow the NBA and NFL. NBA has league pass, so I don't need TV. That leaves the NFL.
and here we are.....
Parker Allen
> Also football is dying out If you keep saying it maybe it will become true.
typical selfish millennial can only think about what matters to himself. we're talking about an entire industry here, not you.
Andrew Gomez
Nigger it's not about channels (the Internet has millions of websites comparable to them anyway) it's about programming and convenience. I guarantee that I can give you a link to any American TV series that you can watch at any time
Julian Price
and tv is convenient. you can sit on your couch instead of a computer chair for one, and before you say you can do that with a laptop people have coffee tables in their living rooms, and it's uncomfortable to use a laptop on one of those for extended periods of time. not only that but all you have to do is type in three numbers at the MOST, as opposed to an entire web address. and you have video on demand services and DVR . there is a REASON that poor people choose the internet over cable, and that reason is that the internet is not as good.
Justin Torres
football is plebeian shit
millenials like their craft beer and their MLS
mexican invaders watch European soccer league
Basically it's your average wagecucck who likes the NFL, and since Saddam Hussein Osama is doing everything possible to get rid of jobs, there are fewer and fewer wage cucks these days
As for myself, I just watch curling and drink molson so I don't really give a hoot eh
P.S.? Did anyone else watch the Queen in Vancouver?
Carter Cruz
>and tv is convenient. you can sit on your couch instead of a computer chair for one, Nigga are you serious? You can connect your laptop to a TV. You don't even need a wire.
How fucking old are you?
Connor Lee
and do what? browse websites? that's not what television is for. televisions are for watching things. and why did you even buy a tv to hook your laptop up to in the first place if you don't even fucking have cable? you people sound utterly ridiculous.
Jason Gray
You can even do it with a phone. This guy sounds like he's stuck in the stone age
Jackson Jenkins
lmao (((((They)))) control the NFL
Alexander Hernandez
>and do what? browse websites? >I guarantee that I can give you a link to any American TV series that you can watch at any time
this can't be real. my 60 year old mother knows this.
Aaron Lewis
Ratings are down for pretty much every sport right now.
This has nothing to do with Kaepershit.
Caleb Mitchell
Nope. You didn't even read the post right Paco. (((They))) don't control the NFL, that's why he have to suffer through all this bullshit.
Chase Martinez
cool, but there's about 300 fucking channels that don't show series on them. i don't watch series. but i watch a lot of TV so obviously your understanding of TV is lacking.
Juan Adams
huh? over 50% of NFL team owners are jews
are all you yanks that brickheaded
Jose Robinson
what is that you watch Schlomo? Enlighten us.
Mason Richardson
Yeah, who knew that DUDE PATRIOTS OR BRONCOS DEEP IN THE PLAYOFFS EVERY YEAR LMAO wasn't a good formula for consistent ratings
Jason Butler
whatever is on that i want to watch. that's the beauty of TV, unlike the internet, it comes to me, i don't have to find anything.
Christian Cox
What the fuck do you watch on TV then and why is watching it through the Internet at any time worse?
Michael Brown
I'm personally not into the whole anti-Jew thing.
I mean yeah, there are a lot of Jews in media and banking. It's undeniable. But blaming the average Jew for their bullshit, is like blaming the average goy for Wal-mart.
That being said, the NFL makes a ton of money, and aren't under the heel of the old-guard media.
Just watch say ESPN's coverage of the NFL vs. the NFL networks coverage of the NFL. It's obvious.
Joshua Peterson
theres so many different things on every night. and watching it on the internet would be worse because it's not anywhere on the internet.
Jordan Morgan
nice try. can't even name one thing. Smh.
Nolan Hill
>theres so many different things on every night. and watching it on the internet would be worse because it's not anywhere on the internet. No one on here is this stupid. take it to facebook.
Brandon Young
I've actually watched very little NFL this season and it has nothing to do with KaeperGOAT, there's just been a lot of shitty boring games
Dylan Evans
because i don't watch one thing, i watch many things. there's always something different on every night. it's amazing to see you people trying this hard to discredit TV.
Michael Sanders
There have been shitty games, I would boycott the NFL too
Leo Sanders
>because i don't watch one thing, i watch many things. name one
Oliver Long
My ps4
Luke Ross
i will not, because if that's all it takes to shut you up, then you have no argument. and you are pretending that you dont know what happens on TV just for the sake of arguing with me. this is sad to see, your generation is so hostile.
Justin Campbell
You must not be around when soccer games are on
Isaiah Ramirez
you can't is it possible this is just a retarded cable tv industry shill, instead of one of (((them)))?
Or are they just playing dumb to gather info?
Bentley Cox
there's no way that a game console offers the same amount of stations as a cable package.
Jaxson Kelly
literally turn on your tv, if you have one, and find a program that isn't a part of a series. voila. there's HUNDREDS of them, every single night. i bet you've still got that child mindset where every channel under cartoon network doesn't exist in your mind.
Benjamin Ramirez
I'll be honest, once the NFL becomes all nig qbs like in college, I'll probably stop watching.
Zachary Diaz
Surely he's killing himself over not getting the French techno channel. You realize most people had all of those 100s of channels at one point and decided it was inferior and waste of money compared to the Internet, right?
Charles Sanders
>Or are they just playing dumb to gather info? no one is legitimately this stupid. It's impossible. He's playing dumb to gather info.
Ayden Anderson
no, because i have both and i still need cable to keep up with all of my sports teams and when i want to relax without having to sit in a computer chair.
Robert Cooper
shill or troll, def not legit moron
Jayden Perez
gather info about WHAT? what the hell has been said in this thread that is so important? you are a paranoid little fuck. i get into arguments with you fucking autists every night before i have to go to sleep and i regret it every time. i don't know why i still come here.
Alexander Peterson
>people stopped watching because of kaepernick
I'm sure it didn't help but I doubt that's the only reason why people are tuning out.
Connor Ward
I pay 50 a month and get the sport channels and my local stations , i dont feel like i need anything more , wide variety of on demand too
Jace Roberts
well that's a cable package then, essentially. a game console alone doesn't have a monthly subscription fee so it sounded too good to be true.
Dominic Foster
>>people stopped watching because of kaepernick >I'm sure it didn't help but I doubt that's the only reason why people are tuning out. both fake arguments at the same time. 360 degrees of Jewery.
Oliver Cooper
I'm not paying for tv, ever. And I'm not paying to watch commercials.
It sucks because I can't watch a lot of sports. Years ago you could watch your local teams on tv (college and pro). But that is no longer true for the most part...I do get to watch the Atl Falcons on Sundays.
Give me an 'a la carte' option and I might consider paying money. Otherwise cable can go fuck themselves.
Xavier Moore
I've been boycotting this shit sport for years
Benjamin Smith
i really got a chuckle out of the tv shilling grandpa itt
Austin Morales
This. Even this early in the season you can already see who is gonna be in the playoffs and probably Superbowl.
All the talent is on a few teams.
Zachary Lopez
>(((Billie Gold)))
How the fuck is Cred Forums always right?
Adrian Morris
>Give me an 'a la carte' option and I might consider paying money. Otherwise cable can go fuck themselves. If you can prove that you can't get a satellite dish (college dorm, renter whose land lord won't allow it etc.), you can now get NFL DirectTV Sunday Ticket a la carte.
Logan Torres
It's weird how most people thought he was a inconsiderate jackass before he started kneeling, and now he's held as some honorable guy Do people not remember #7tormsComing?
James Robinson
His supporters forgot that he was an inconsiderate swagfag until recently because it does not fit their narrative.
Jeremiah Hernandez
They started allowing the ads in 1997. IIRC, Viagra came out in 2000 or 2001.
Jayden Jenkins
If you're posting on Cred Forums you are more than capable of watching any sport for free that you want at any time of the day. Git gud.
Oliver Jenkins
>huh? over 50% of NFL team owners are jews
nope
8
1/4
a minority
Colton Ortiz
>implying
Rating are down because anyone with half a brain can see that the primetime matchups so far have been almost exclusively between teams no one gives a shit about.
Eli Robinson
If white people hate blacks so much, why do they watch them play sports?
Ayden Ross
Theres no cable though
Adrian Smith
cucks
Owen Wood
>he thinks racist crackers can't be entertained by people they hate
Remember the Gladiators my man.
Blake Bailey
Seems like they're scripting a Cowboys/Eagles rivalry in a desperate attempt to gain ratings.
Samuel Ortiz
>mfw Kaep will get to play once this year really well and shove it in the face of haters
Jacob Moore
>If you're posting on Cred Forums you are more than capable of watching any sport for free that you want at any time of the day. You're correct, I can find a stream site. But the point is I *would* pay if the current options weren't so terrible.
Obviously there are folks who do pay for the current options. And they have no problems with the content they get.
Ian Fisher
He didn't look good in that last preseason game. He was still staring down receivers like a dip.
Hopefully he gets some land dragons.
Joshua Johnson
Yeah but ratings literally dictate the amount of shekels the NFL gets. If the ratings drop, the price for a commercial drops
Juan Bennett
I can't wait for the day ESPN dies. They are nothing but a political network now.
Jordan Perez
If the NFL made it available for a reasonable price digitally, I would pay for it. As it is now, I watch NFL games on /r/nflstreams.
Not gonna pay for cable. Too bad, so sad.
Logan Diaz
wait this is a real hashtag? People are actually boycotting the nfl?
