Not a fan of Trump, but the Hillary supporters had their heads up their ass. Both sides suck.

IMO...it's not as complicated as many make it.

 

It's just the ebb and flow.  Things get really popular, people consume it at a frantic pace, people over consume, people get a little tired of it, and something else takes it's place.

Businesses do this, economies, nations, etc....

Agree w/ the first part this. Officiating across the board in every major sport is atrocious. Watch an ACC basketball game if you don't believe me. Social media, and the numerous ways to receive information (real or fake) is at an all time high, so it really puts a magnifying glass on stuff like officiating.

 

 I really, truly don't think kneeling during the anthem is effecting viewership. 

I think you are wrong. Head over to any Facebook thread about the players kneeling and the majority of folks posting are tuning out over this. People need to stop trying to be politically correct and get their heads out of the sand.  Plenty of people are tired of these over paid players disrespecting the flag and the people that lost their lives keeping said players free so they can make the living they do playing with a ball.

NFL is just running it's course. People are finding things to do besides sit and watch TV.  I don't think it's political at all.

i agree with you. i think politics is a driving factor for why they dont want to sit and watch TV anymore. but youre right, theres a deeper cultural shift right now away from constant media saturation, even sports media.

Instead of banning they there should be a way to put this weirdo on everyone's ignore list. Then he can talk to the air.
