Why the NFL is in trouble
#23
(12-16-2017, 09:21 PM)Antares Wrote: It's no secret, that the NFL is in trouble. Ratings are down, fewer people at the games. My assessment.

1) The kneelers. We have gazillionaire crybabies living in the greatest country in history, where they are treated like Gods, taking a knee for the flag that thousands died to defend. They can go to hell.

2) The zebras. They think they are the show. The constant flag fest makes some games unwatchable.

3) No drama. The same teams year in and year out are taking home the trophy. Boring.

4) The fans. When you go to a game, you are surrounded by nit wits. 30 and 40 year old men who handle their alcohol worse than a frat boy. I am embarrassed for them.

5) The players. Too many thugs acting thuggish.

6) The gouging and the greed.  Loyal fans are rewarded by the teams with price gouging. Nearly ten bucks for a beer and 100 or 200 bucks for tickets. While Roger brings in 50 million a year.

7) They are working against physics. The players are bigger, stronger, and faster than they have ever been. Leading to more violent impacts. The NFL does not know how to handle it. So they use their beloved yellow flag. Flags are being thrown for nothing more than hard hits. Fans hate this.

8) Other sports. Right now MLB is just an excellent game. This last post season was superb. Great stuff. No kneelers.
1) Yes this has hurt ratings

2) There was talk of full-time refs, but I agree they are bad this year. The NFL could easily fix this

3) Not really. The Jags, Rams, and Eagles are all chasing the party this year

4) Fans have always acted the fool; nothing new here. I will say Bengal fans are among the worst I have seen at games

5) Once again nothing new here, NFL has good guys and bad guys

6) No problems with owners charging the price they see fit. Just get slammed at the tailgate

7) A big reason is the pads they are allowed to wear. Everybody wear's "punter pads" now. Make them suit up proper. 

8) MLB rates just slightly higher in my playbook than the NBA and that's pretty fr down the list. 


The NFL IS in trouble, but I think it is because they are a victim of their success. Too many ways to watch it.
