Trump is against those kneeling in the NFL

[jimnyc]

If they lose 20 percent of their viewership it will cost the league a lot of money.

20%? dream on! you're lucky to get 1%

TV ratings have been mostly down across the board, minus a few games. Otherwise, there HAS been a hit to viewership overall. In addition to the article that HPD already posted, and follow-ups about ratings, here's another. I don't think they're getting the response and support they assumed they would get. And as you can see, it's more than just a few games dropping in ratings. I'm afraid they definitely lost some long time fans for good, and many uneasy about the whole thing. I think... I know, they underestimated how passionate the country is about our anthem/flag!

NFL Favorability Ratings Cut in Half — IN ONE WEEK!

This is disastrous!
The NFL favorability ratings were cut in half — in the last week.

Morning Consult released their numbers today.

This comes after over 200 NFL players knelt during the US national anthem on Gold Star Mothers Day last sunday.

The Daily Caller reported:

Morning Consult conducted the survey, and the results are a very bad sign for the NFL.

They released the following data in a press release to The Daily Caller:

NFL’s Brand Favorability Drops To Lowest Point Since Morning Consult Started Tracking: The NFL’s net favorability has dropped from 30% on September 21 to 17% on September 28.

On September 21, 25% of Trump supporters said they had a very favorable view of the NFL and 11% had a very unfavorable view.

As of Sept 28, those numbers have dramatically changed with 33% of Trump supporters say they have a very unfavorable view of the NFL and 16% report having a very favorable view.

Slowly, teams/players are reversing their decisions, or moving forward.

America’s Team Again: Dez Bryant Announces the Cowboys Will Stand for the Anthem on Sunday, and for the Rest of the Season

Goodbye interlocked arms, farewell raised fists, and see you later bended knee. The Dallas Cowboys will have no further use for those things because, starting Sunday, the Cowboys will simply stand during the anthem for the rest of the season.

That’s the word coming from Cowboys wide receiver and team leader Dez Bryant, who told Clarence Hill of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, that the Cowboys are done with anthem demonstrations.

“We’re going to stand, we’re going to stand and going to put our hand over our heart and we’re going to do what we did before,” Bryant said. “You all know what that was, that was just a response to Trump and that’s all that that was.”

Weird. I know someone who was at the London game, and she said the Dolphins all stood, and the Saints sat/knelt before the anthem, then stood for the anthem.

Oh the 3 who were sitting for ours stood up for England's.

Friend says Score is Seattle 3, Indy 2. I was wondering if Seattle took a knee in the end zone to give Indiana 2 points.

Sunday, Monday, Sunday night, Thursday night. Some got bumps for the anthem drama.... but I think you underestimated how the American folks felt about this situation. Admit it Pete, admit it!!

Some small slips in ratings here and there, but mostly large drops in numbers - both compared to last year, and since the beginning of the season.


NFL Backlash: ‘Sunday Night Football’ Ratings Tank … Again

Another Sunday delivers more bad ratings news for a National Football League already imploding under the weight of its own strident and proven anti-Americanism. Last week, Sunday Night Football hit a new season low, and compared to last year, sunk a full 10 percent. This week, viewership for Sunday Night Football collapsed even further, down another five percent. Compared to this same week last year, viewership fell two percent.

Via Deadline:

With a 11.0/19 in metered market results, last night’s SNF was down 5% from last week when the Washington Redskins beat the Oakland Raiders 27-10. As the league took another week-by-week ratings hit just a month into the 2017-2018 season, year-to-year, Sunday’s game was also down a bit from last year. Compared to the then season low of the Pittsburgh Steelers’ 43-14 smackdown of the Kansas City Chiefs in primetime on October 2, 2016, last night’s SNF dipped 2% in the early numbers.

In the wake of the horror story coming out of Las Vegas, where early reports tell us a number of police officer have been killed or wounded while trying to save others, these ongoing NFL protests, which are in part targeted against police officers, might take on an entirely new dimension of outrage among a vast majority of Americans already disgusted with these millionaire crybabies and their petulant activism.

These NFL protests were not only invented by a former-player who wears “cop pig” socks, just last week Colin Kaepernick’s foundation donated $25,000 to an organization named after convicted cop killer Assata Shakur.
