Hey just saying.

Christmas gatherings with a large family full nfl fans...lotta folks told they watch their team and that’s it. A couple said no nfl anymore with one uncle who told me fuck the nfl...[/quote]

No doubt it chopped a few lukewarm fans off the block, but anybody who loves football didn't stop watching.

Anyways in the spirit of the holidays, here's something we can all enjoy:

Good article.

The concussion stuff I think really hurts parents getting their kids involved in little league football.

Definition of team:

Both Hart and fellow tackle, Ereck Flowers, apparently “checked out” this week and had informed coaches they didn’t intend to play on Sunday against the Washington Redskins. As a result, new general manager Dave Gettleman sent Hart packing and benched Flowers.

Ffs...Dumpster Fire on a new level

Enjoy it while it lasts, I swear if Kirk leaves we are going to settle back into the basement. Giants will be our only competition.

No disagreement here.It's all so why we now have a new GM and soon to be Head coach.Giants will be a completely different team next year,you won't be able to compare the two.

Yes they have, they have people talking about the protests and pretty much nothing else. Most people are unaware of all the crap Kaepernick has pulled. He is being manipulated by his left wing radical girlfriend like a puppet, he has no mind of his own.

I had said years ago that I would not pay to watch football (I don't mean actual game tickets) .I do pay for cable (Comcast) and the "On Demand" function has enable me to do a whole bunch of things add in DVR's and people are free to now go out and enjoy their Sunday's with family.I go into the functions pull up sports then NFL highlights and in 10/15 mins I have seen what I need to see, a great feature in years like this one for me.
The kneeling isn't a thing for me,just turn the channel till that is over.I just don't like the punks who are playing anymore,Yes I include ODB in that.The NFL needs the Eli's ,the Larry Fitzgerald's,the Kirk Cousins and JJ Watts....etc. Examples can be found good and bad on all the teams.

Ratings started leveling off and declining before the kneeling controversy. If anyone has any hard data showing it’s a significant factor in the ratings I’d love to see it. And no, your uncle saying F the league is not legit data.

Re: Around the NFL Week 17
 

I have never seen any hard data on the kneeling issue. I have the eyeball test and when a handful of friends (casual and die hard) said "F" the NFL. I am not saying it is 50% percent of people but it's more than anyone wants to advertise. We can say it is a nonissue and gloss over it, but that's not true.

Jim Schwartz is heading to NY. This is a great move. It hurts the Eagles and makes NY a permanent 500 team. Jim Schwartz is a great defensive coordinator but average head coach.

It’s a strong contributing factor. I also hear a radio interview with a top nfl merchandise owner who said they had data which indicated a decline in nfl licensed sales the exact week the kap protest went viral.

No, he is the first coach being interviewed due to the bi week the eagles have.
