Boycott the NFL is working. Ratings are down big

[Momentum]

Which boycott is having the bigger effect? White trump supporters or the brehs supporting Kaep?

They took the narrative, flipped it and will now claim victory. We can't win no matter what we do.

I'm still boycotting because the games are trash, TNF gotta go, and the preseason needs to be shortened.

This is why I know most people that post here have no formal education or critical thinking skills. How the fukk u gonna boycott something ur adversary is already boycotting. And some of y'all dumb enough to think it's Kap supporters making a fraction of a difference smh.
The US black population is 12%, of that 12% maybe 5% actually watches the NFL. Out of that 5% maybe 20% of that (1%) is boycotting. But yet they are the reasons the NFL is losing money. Not the millions of pissed off cacs, but the hand full of nikkas that watch it. Some of u have no sense smh

exactly
these "black" militants dont understand we dont have enough numbers. thats why all their solutions never amount to anything in real life. i swear all they do is write paragraphs about absolute bullshyt. they dont understand a damn thing about the real world. they dont know how to move against a white consistent that is 75% against anything we do (BLM, kneeling, etc.)

All these essays about kneeling, boycotting and calling 23 year old players c00ns for not kneeling could've used for educating people to vote and use black businesses. But nope, nobody gives a fukk about actual slow solutions.

white people got cities/teams/ leagues APLOGIZING

nobody gives a fukk about the miniscle of black folks that actually boycotted. it didnt do shyt.

white people out here dealing REAL economic damage. ticket sales. boycotting sponsors.

Jags prez apologizes for London anthem action

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Jacksonville Jaguars president Mark Lamping has apologized to the city of Jacksonville's director of military affairs chief and local military representatives for not fully understanding the potential impact of several players' decision to kneel during the national anthem before their Sept. 24 game against the Baltimore Ravens in London.

In a letter dated Oct. 6 and sent to Bill Spann, the city's director of military affairs and veterans department and local military representatives, Lamping said the organization did not fully consider the furor that would result from those actions, especially given that the entire team stood for "God Save the Queen."

"It bears repeating that we were remiss in not fully comprehending the effect of the national anthem demonstration occurring on foreign soil has had on the men and women who have or continue to serve our country," Lamping wrote. "Similarly, we today can better appreciate how standing for God Save The Queen may have been viewed negatively by our armed forces here in Jacksonville and beyond. As covered during our conversation on Thursday, this was an oversight and certainly not intended to send a message that would disparage you, our flag or our nation. The notion never entered the minds of our players or anyone affiliated with the Jacksonville Jaguars, but today we can understand how the events in London on September 24 could have been viewed or misinterpreted. We owe you an apology and hope you will accept it."

Jacksonville has a heavy military presence, and the city is home to Naval Air Station Mayport and Naval Air Station Jacksonville. In addition, Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay is located roughly 40 miles north of Jacksonville on the outskirts of St. Marys, Georgia.

Curry, who flew to London on the team's charter and attended the game at Wembley Stadium, released a statement two days after the Sept. 24 game that called the players' decision to knee during the anthem "stupid." Curry said that the players have the right not to stand during the anthem, but he believes they should.

"I stand and cover my heart for the pledge and the anthem," Curry's statement read. "I think it's stupid to do otherwise. The U.S. Constitution protects the right for a lot of people to do a lot of stupid things. I am a Constitutional Conservative, so I respect the wisdom of our Founders."

It's been NFL since they were too lazy to deal with multiple companies to license NFL games and decided to give the exclusive rights to EA Sports. Just like the DirecTV deal. I love football but the NFL as a company is just garbage ran from top to bottom. I imagine nothing but lazy fukks running the league.

Exactly and when these guys start standing for the anthem again and them ratings spike back up then what?

I really dislike fake militants.

It has more to do with cord cutters anyway

 

[THEREALBRAND]

at people cheering a victory for Trump supporters.

Nobody's even talking about the Kap boycott. The narrative has been completely changed, and any damage that happens to the league will be credited to Trump and his flag boycotters. Right Wingers have chosen the NFL as a primary battleground for their imaginary culture war.

Yeah, ratings are down for almost everything compared to last year (not just the NFL). Except for cable news, of course.

 

[Da King]

The NBA takeover is otw :BigBallerBlessed:

Not with the WOAT season about to happen

 

[intruder]

NFL ratings down 7.5 percent through Week 6


tho 7.5 isn't a big number....its a million viewers

Thing is black people are boycotting because of the Kaepernick blackball by NFL teams while white people stopped watching because of the continued anthem protests by black players.


I didn't think black people alone boycotting would have that hudge of an impact based on sheer numbers but when you combine the two it will hurt the NFL's bottom line .

So now they have to pick which demographic do they go about pleasing.

• Do they try to please black people by bringing back Kaepernick who'll continue to kneel which in turn angers white people?
• Or do they try to please white people by forcing the players to stand which will alienate black people?

We all know where this is going.

 

[PhonZhi]

White ppl are boycotting because black ppl are standing up for themselves. Its basically the modern-day version of Kunte Kinte's foot being chopped off for attempting to leave the plantation. Some players are "bucking" and white folk are boycotting in retaliation.

If white folk stop boycotting all a sudden it would be due to black folk "falling back in line".

Who gives a shyt who's more responsible. We all know WHY its happening and who started the ball rolling. I hope the boycotts gets stronger on both sides.

Its like y'all don't understand the big picture of what's going on. We probably won't even be alive to see the full affects of Kaep's actions.

This is just the beginning.

 

[Ain't That Something]

It probably does have something to do with the boycott, but not the boycott you're thinking of.

You mean the boycott on cable

I honestly barely know anyone not using a firsestick

 

[Based Lord Zedd]

Which boycott is having the bigger effect? White trump supporters or the brehs supporting Kaep?

Brehs supporting Kap.

@10bandz The craziest thing about this post, is that you actually posted a thread with the NFL ratings that prove you wrong.
#BOYCOTTNFL Deep look at ratings confirms only old c00ns are failing blacks. (@AVXL is a c00n)

If people want to boycott go ahead. But the lies and attention whoring are annoying.
I think it would be very hard for you to prove what you are saying. Especially not when there are factors beyond boycotts impacting ratings.

But are ppl supporting Kaep by boycotting impacting the NFL? Yes. Just not the primary factor.

Some quotes from an article YOU linked to.

Among total viewers, only white NFL fans (-7.74%) have shown a bigger year-to-year drop through the first four weeks than black NFL fans (-7.71%).

With white Americans being the majority, it’s natural that white viewers make up the majority of not only TV viewership, but NFL fandom

Some charts from an article you linked to, showing that the volume of decline for white viewers is larger than for blacks.

 

[Max.]

Rating have been down since 2015 tho

 

[Monoblock]

Nah they aren't, you are underestimating how petty, vindicative and idiotic they are. Funny thing is all of them were shedding crocodile tears when Muhammad Ali died ( that guy who was 99% likely called ****** by their grandparents, may they rest in piss ) but demonize the kneelers at every opportunity

Whats crazy is when Ali died all of the media came with their fake condolences and revisionist history saying Ali was a hero and the greatest ever not even mentioning the fukked up shyt he went through and hate he received. The very next week Kaep started kneeling and the same racist behavior and rhetoric starts popping up from the same group of people who grandparents did the same thing to Ali. They can't even look themselves in the mirror with their hypocritical bullshyt and always resort to some other excuse as to why they feel the way they do. For 1 they don't give a fukk about us outside of entertainment and 2 dont care whats going on in our neighborhoods or to our people. It shines a light on how fukked up society is and they don't want to have that thought enter their minds. They do this shyt throughout sports history.
White people love to claim Babe Ruth was the most revered and loved baseball player back then but truth be told whites hated him b/c he had a dark complexion and often associated with many black people and played baseball with em too. They called him a gorilla and all kinds of fukked up shyt but they never talk about that.

 

[THE MACHINE]

I am happy with my stand in boycotting for Kaep, but the ratings decline are more due to the cord cutters and Anti-Kaep/pro Trump group.
