When your stars get hurt it kills the product

I can see that...Eagles got the 76ers (and potentially Phillies) at least if Wentz' injury ruins their season.

But there have been times when a big injury happened to a player but the team still made it to the Superbowl.....

Yours in particular :ufdup:

The QB is the 'face of the team', so to speak. Pretty much everyone else outside of a few special positions are nameless, faceless interchangeable cogs. Don't think it's not a factor.

Meh, sometimes....Think Von Miller is a bigger face for the Broncos than our current QB(s)

Optimistic But I Got Hands Tho
The NFL still doesn’t have a league pass available to everyone. Not everyone has Direct TV.

The only way I can watch my squad play live is illegally or at a Browns Backers bar.

There are tons of other things that are killing the NFL and Goodell is doing a terrible job.

Never know.

Eagles have a better chance of going to the SB with Foles than 76ers have of advancing to the Conference Semi-Finals.
That's interesting, philly in a short series would be scary for any contender. There's a lot of mismatches to deal with starting with embiid

If they bringing home trophies and banners why does the race of the QB matter?
because white spectators/fans want white faces to root for. the reason why they make up a smaller percent of basketball fans. let's not pretend the :mjpls: factor doesn't play into sports fandom of conservative whites

I'm pretty sure that's what the Verizon contract they just sealed is supposed to address, giving people another option besides DTV/Sunday Ticket. Access to any game you wanna see on any mobile platform.

NBA is by far the most popular sport internationally. For the NBA to surpass the NFL domestically it will take time.

The NBA has the way younger and more diverse demographic. Just Time is needed.
international doesn't matter or make it more profitably domestically. Soccer, baseball are just as big as basketball internationallly. Hockey is also big internationally. All four of them pale in comparison of interest to the NFL nationally.
