Furthermore, I live in northern Michigan. Don’t know why anybody would want to watch anything with florio in it…dude doesn’t do anything but try to stir up trouble with his stupid ask a question and then answer it himself….just report the facts and leave out your opinions and your lack of knowledge about football….please. People are turning away from the tarnished shield. Of course it’s been downhill since then. Even if on the team I support. Kirk is a man of faith. But this stuff takes his failures to a new level. Live with it. Biggest problem in society today is people not just worrying about themselves and their lives. No hitting. Every morning I would watch nfl network as well as every night. A thoroughly entertaining account of the entire universe of professional football, from locker room to boardroom, from playing field to press box, this is an essential book for any fan of America’s favorite sport. Then there is Kaepernick. Obviously it will never be enough especially when you have billionaire owners asking the tax payers for money to build stadiums for there toys. Dig up Pete Rozelle’s skeleton. [37] However, Kornheiser and Wilbon continued to tape a "Talking Points" mini online TV feature for the Washington Post until June 2, 2009, when an installment termed the final one was posted on the Post 's site. I didn’t watch, for the first time in over 30 years. That was terrible. You can hardly ever settle into it before another raft of commercials gets stuffed in, or distracting promos, or mediocre sideline correspondents. The networks then gauge the viewers by charging exorbitant amounts to watch their specific product. They are NOT getting reduced ratings….in fact, they are probably at or above where they have been in previous years. Leaders Who Last draws upon the author’s own pastoral experience and leadership, plus a significant analysis of leadership in both families and churches over generations. The dream team has splintered for perhaps good. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. I’ve been a ‘core watcher’ since 1955, but have not seen even one score of any game since Colin Kaepernick decided his ‘itty bitty feelings’ are more important than the game, and the Commissioner allowed that crap. Get it? They provide 75% of the FDA’s budget through user fees which helps promote a Pro-industry bias by regulators. But many do not, Have a 5-minute rest between quarters and block all the commercials then & at halftime. And I’m sure the league saw the tape. Too many bad games and over exposure. Today it’s easy to fill that void with something else. Whether or not the players have a good point, it’s not why I watch football. I understand “my body my choice” when it comes to cigarettes. Or stupid? Millions of people all over the world have gotten the vaccines, and Kirk Cousins thinks he is smarter than they all are. With the good job NBC has done with the Premier League, I only see its popularity growing. Where’s the outrage over that? *The Peyton Manning worship/free HGH escape. The NFL needs to forget the idea of extending the season and dump the Thursday night and early AM London games altogether and focus on fixing the way the games are broadcast, Fact Colts NFL suffering from #DeflateGate Karma It’s only just beginning #AbuseofPower, I stopped because of the political activism and “safety” changes. Good, I hope the trend continues. Mike Florio and co-host Paul Burmeister regularly welcome a roster of NBC Sports football commentators, including Rodney Harrison, Hines Ward, Doug Flutie, Ross Tucker, Amani Toomer, and Peter King. Since the Patriots drafted Mac Jones, head coach Bill Belichick has maintained Cam Newton will be the team's starting quarterback until someone beats him out. Sunday’s you don’t have to sit through commercials you just throw on red zone. Maybe if the players (select few) respected the flag and the USA, they would get better ratings. The reason is obvious. for football sundays i whip out the bunny ears, but other then that i dont watch old fashioned tv. Otherwise it takes too much time away from family. (not just the Pat’s we have had plenty of other teams cheat). I’m tired of New York reviewing everything under the sun. I don’t think it has anything to do with the anthem because I don’t believe that they have that many racist who are Nielsen households, but if they are then the irony is that would prove that America is an extremely racist country. Although I will say that when I see the networks making it a point by showing people kneeling or holding their fists in the air for the anthem, it definitely gives me a negative impression of the NFL experience. Those who do not want to get a vaccine should not have the same freedoms as those who have. Choosing to remain unvaccinated will likely lead to missed practices, missed games, and a dysfunctional locker room. Why not just apply that attitude toward the vaccine…i mean if it just boils down to that. Trucks. Maybe…. The CDC is not providing effective data. Another reason (for me, at least) is I don’t like having politics/social issues mixed in with sports. But may be killing the ratings of the game. I’ll enjoy the demise of the NFL. The superiority complex of pats fans was funny for awhile. One can only hope it continues long enough for Roger to be canned. “If there is any fixed star in our constitutional constellation, it is that no official, high or petty, can prescribe what shall be orthodox in politics, nationalism, religion, or other matters of opinion or force citizens to confess by word or act their faith therein. It’s been a nice September. So, I did what most normal folks would do when dissatisfied with my TV programming, I CHANGED the channel and watched COPS. It is rare to be able to see your team on a National broadcast. I think the pros should adopt college rules. How can anyone Coach a player like that especially in the most important position. Kirk is smart enough to choose God. ——————————–. It’s REDZONE AND FANTASY. I wonder what the excuse is going to be in a month when the FDA approves it. it would be an interesting post if you looked into the numbers for other programing to see if its not just football, or are the numbers down across the board because people don’t have to deal with cable companies monopolies any longer. Kickoff (8 seconds) Maybe the NFL can fold and we can start a real football league again. The product itself has lost quality. I can’t blame anyone for assessing the risks and making choices for themselves. were not blind and were not going to pay you money for a game that is clearly being officiated with favorites. The NFL is a corrupt organization. Selective enforcement and more and more of the feel that the enforcement is to lead to certain outcomes for the game make it less watchable. contra74 says: Fool me once….shame on me. I really never understood how these issues become so one sided. Way too many commercials. Why isn't one of Hollywood's most likable stars appearing in movies or on TV so much anymore? Oddly enough 29% of people who get this type of cancer are non smokers and never smoked a day in their lives. Get out of the Direct TV business and give a flat rate price for divisional teams, single teams, entire nfl and allow us to stream it online for much less than the rape from DirectTV. You either choose God or money. Those ratings will blow the NFL ratings out of the water. Fits that ratings are down–this is supposed to be ENTERTAINMENT! How long ago did they ban smoking in bars, restaurants and publics places? 770 episodes. They seem to get their reviews/ challenges done in half of the time as the NFL. Eventually, they were gonna start dropping. So, no. Cut commercials in half but charge twice as much. "If the service is available in your area, then you cant get the Sunday Ticket to Go." I wish DirecTV would go out of business. Learn how your comment data is processed. But, I don’t get it at all when people say “my body my choice “ when it comes to Covid. And if the Vikings refuse to do anything, Spielman should also be shown the door. Loves the game. Please anyone can help me, getting stolen $60 from you while you completed an emote commission and after that gave the emotes it's a terrible experience. Does Green Bay Packers, Inc. try hard enough to win Super Bowls? allinforallen says: Richest average QB of the past decade. Does the vaccine mitigate transmission of the virus? Are pro athletes that bad or just not conditioned to play the game due to lack of reps. How do you ever expect a head coach to ever implement his program when you reduced the amount of time he has to implement it. The mystery is leaving. As an old fart I can relay some ideas based on seeing the growth of the NFL from the 1960’s until now: Oversaturation, bad rule changes, officials too involved in the games, horrendous officiating that is now affecting the outcome of games ( the taunting call on Pryor. It is true that vaccinated individuals may test positive for COVID, but they are extremely unlikely to get severely ill, end up in an ICU, or die. 2c. Been a vikings can since 1976 (when I found out what football was). Cousins is a selfish fool. It might not be but it feels like it and you want to give up. It hasn't been long since Doughboy's disappearance from the stage. For me it’s that there’s too many penalties and too many commercials. For me, its not a difficult thing to figure out. FOREWORD BY LIN-MANUEL MIRANDA AND LUIS A. MIRANDA, JR. The true story of how a group of chefs fed hundreds of thousands of hungry Americans after Hurricane Maria and touched the hearts of many more Chef José Andrés arrived in Puerto Rico ... When it effects others, not solely your choice. Lots of empty seats in Levi Stadium, blocks and blocks of them. For free. I record my team’s game and watch it later, fast forwarding thru the commercials. AND, and this really confuses me..I live in NJ and we get both Philly and NY channels Now if you are a network paying BILLION$ of dollars$ for the right to broadcast these games, then why in the world wouldn’t you have a double header EVERY SUNDAY ?? I feel deflategate to fans was the NFL jumping the shark. I see players voicing their political preference (most of which I personally disagree with) and women who never played a down telling me she likes Odell Beckham’s hair color. I gave man the gift of science and doctors. Do you see the last 2 undefeated teams in the NFC had new starting QBs a week before the season, and the last undefeated team in the AFC has one of the best defenses in the league? Except for the Chargers, who have a great QB and still suck…. The only woman in the band White Zombie, and the world of metal, shares her experiences during her time in the music industry. Regardless, there will be no break here at PFT. I Can think of a guaranteed 66 million reasons why. The NFL better hope the Cubs don’t make it to the World Series. Pile on the old score-commercial-extra pt-commercial-kickoff/touchback-commercial and I have just found other things to do. The players are becoming too replaceable and too quickly (with the right coaching). There are not enough hours in the day to cover this. Those games are done in under 2 Hours! If you have a social issue you want to bring attention to do it on your time. All those team’s fans and worse are just going to wait until next year, 92 7 Have you seen the LAUGHABLE opening on SNF??? This. 2 minutes of commercials People are really tired of “The New Better NFL”. I’m saying these issues don’t warrant valid discussion, only that many watch the game for the game. So, all everybody does is check their fantasy team’s stats on their phone and that’s it. 1 min – timeout Anyone who believes in science should know that the NFL was wrong in that instance. I am one person and have one reason alone to not watch-deflategate. The networks should stop showing the sidelines during the anthem! __________________________________ What some people fail to understand that the National Anthem is sacred, to kneel during it is to commit sacrilege in some people’s eyes. Teams cheat to win. Some of us work the next day you know. It’s not really exciting anymore. He monkeys with free streaming … says it costs him about 10-20 minutes to get himself set up for a game … and then goes to the bar in the playoffs. They are way behind other team sports. Mike Florio talks about the biggest NFL topics with the people who are most passionate about the game: League execs, players, coaches and the journalists who cover pro football. I will not root for this team again while Cousins is the Quarterback. I have the freedom to live as well as the right to be in a public place where I’m not putting others health at risk. I honestly don’t get it. I’ve contributed to the lower ratings, I haven’t watched nearly as much football as I normally do. According to the CDC, there are 7 different types of Human CORONA viruses. It’s really hard for me to watch a complete game that doesn’t feature my team these days. Should have NEVER dropped Case – he had chemistry with our team AND COULD MAKE PLAYS!!! Just constant adverts. Which means there are a whole lot of people who say they’re offended by something they’re not actually seeing. Wear a mask don’t wear a mask. Instead it happens to the Browns and no one seems to care. Games from 9am to 9pm on Sunday, Monday and Thursday night. It’s exciting/ much more closer games/ much more upsets. Have to be honest – the match-ups for these prime time games have been terrible. The other garbage you are pretending it is hasn’t turned off fans the past few years. I haven’t watched as much. We need to move on from this journalism in sports, because while you can make the argument an unvaccinated player is potentially detrimental to team success, we are still enquiring about non-football related health information of an individual. Why does maybe tampering with a football end with a stiffer penalty than Ray Rice initially got? You did this to yourselves. The NFL should be ashamed of themselves for putting that type of garbage officiating on the field far too often then not. Similar to what is happening with declining oil prices. throw in the preposterous and constant rule changes by loser turds on the competition committee, it has just been too much. One good thing I can say about Kaepernick is that, he just did it without making a deal about it… until someone asked him about it in the third preseason game. Oct 4, 2016 7:31 PM Many are under forty years old, without associated conditions that would have made them “high risk” with the original alpha strain. Then again, Cousins is taking an extreme and irrational position. Free from Goodell, London games, and Thursday nights. Money is not worth going to h.e.l.l. How much money is enough? They had enough trouble scheduling good Monday Night games to begin with. No sports fans should watch another game until they read this book and understand what truly is being presented as “pure” in America’s professional sports leagues. Blaney wins second straight, third this season. Want a replay of that last play? *Bountygate penalties completely out of line. Separate the game from the common man and he will lose interest. He monkeys with free streaming … says it costs him about 10-20 minutes to get himself set up for a game … and then goes to the bar in the playoffs. The oncologist suggested I get vaccinated and her as well because I’m the primary caregiver. 2. Because he is a moron. Buy or Sell: Can Vikings find first win in Week 3? you could go on and on about why ratings are down but I think Goodell is the root of all of this. *Phil Simms The Giants-vikings game was just one long commercial. The NFL can thank Colin Kaepernick for the low ratings. The NFL’s TV contracts are way overpriced and the media companies are juking the stats downwards to give them leverage next time they’re up for renegotiation. In the early 90’s as a kid I use to long for the next Sunday to come so I could watch or read about (blackout games due to attendance) my crappy Pats play. August 5, 2021 at 10:27 pm Much like the WWE, the NFL will always have its core supporters. I’ve seen highschool players tackle better than many of the players in games I’ve watched. Besides, he rarely performs well under pressure in games that count. Here’s a thought…Perhaps you don’t alienate one of your strongest fan bases and tarnish the legacy of your biggest star QB. Some people are fans of the Green Bay Packers. I work from home and have since last year, I go to the grocery store, pick up prescriptions etc…….. I’m glad to see more people getting vaccinated it took me 20 minutes to pick up meds the other day at our Local Walgreens because so many are starting to get vaccinated. What happens when your choice to not get vaccinated or wear a mask interferes with someone else’s choice to stay healthy? Nuccio DiNuzzo/Getty Images. this year i decided to listen to the games on the radio, instead of sitting in front of a tv getting fat and lazy. it’s down on thursdays, sundays and Monday’s because the commercial time outs are unbearable. *Horrible, inconsistent officiating. August 5, 2021 at 8:58 pm Even the Patriots can get shut out at home by the Bills. Belichick (and Ernie Adams, his sidekick) should have been banned from the NFL years ago. The three-hour program debuted on October 1, 2007. But then he should be excused of his responsibilities without pay. Considered a coaching career path. No one had the stones to protect the game in the face of litigation due to the concussion thing or other movements with hidden agendas. This second group is still watching their team just not the other games. They’re not playing Football, they’re playing TV Football. The whole deflategate thing was a complete joke. Every day, all day long, whatever is happening in the NFL will be right here, with the news and information routinely supplemented by what it all means. The FDA didn’t even exist yet. Fool me twice, shame on you. The NFL has over-saturated its market. I joke, but the NFL did us wrong, and they showed fans all over the country that they don’t care about the fans at all.
