The Mahomes Vs. Burrow Debate
(07-10-2023, 09:54 PM)Nepa Wrote: Jordan's basic statement on the issue was "Republicans purchase sneakers, too." 

Jordan stuck to sports and the NBA grew astronomically in popularity during his time. Since the NBA became so political, such as moving the All Star game out of Charlotte because of legislation (which was less restrictive than the state they went to, btw) and wearing political slogans on players backs in 2020, its rating has declined tremendously. 

Even Phil Jackson said he doesn't watch the NBA anymore because of its politics. 

The NBA drew 36 million in 1998 for one game; it drew 13 million this year for the most watched game. Four of the five lowest ratings for final series came in the last 4 years for the NBA, including 7.45 million on average, 9.91 million on average, 12.4 million on average. Compare this to the NFL. The NFL Super Bowl had 115 million viewers. 

If players want to speak politically, it is their right. Certainly. But don't think it won't have an impact on the business for which the players are working.

Just think about threads on this board. Do people want politics injected? I don't think so. 

I dunno... The game just sucks right now too. Younger folks don't actually watch games the way we used to either.
I'm gonna break every record they've got. I'm tellin' you right now. I don't know how I'm gonna do it, but it's goin' to get done.
