>Operators of two of the largest U.S. ticket marketplaces say they are seeing declines in orders for NFL games amid festering controversy over the national anthem.
>NFL ticket sales at TickPick slumped 17.9 percent this week compared with the prior week, their steepest decline since 2014, while sales at TicketCity plunged 31 percent. For pro football games in September, ticket sales at TicketCity are down 16 percent from a year ago. TickPick's NFL sales rose this month, but by the smallest margin since 2015. The vendors' data reflect tickets sold in the secondary market, as opposed to direct sales from NFL teams.
>The slump in ticket sales underscores the pressure facing the NFL over the anthem protests, which were started last year by former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick. The league's television ratings also appear affected, with viewership down 11 percent so far this season and some fans are calling for a boycott of the NFL's corporate partners. cbsnews.com/news/nfl-national-anthem-protest-denting-ticket-sales/ Sup Forumseddit on sue side watch

>Complaining about kneeling before a game >7-1 I think brazil should be more worried about kneeling during a game.
Isaac Watson
They're not very wise to how sports work and the "sports journalist" lackeys they employ are mostly just low-rent hacks that can't make it in the news world. So their fake news shenanigans are a lot easier to expose when they try to swindle the narrative in their favor regarding sports
Charles Price
Somebody forgot to tell the Cowboys then because tickets are still $500 minimum for nosebleeds.
Isaac Walker
my prediction: men wearing pink and locking arms
Connor Carter

The internet went apeshit over Ray Rice. He also hasn't played since that video was released. And the No More 6 game automatic suspension was put in place >NFL does nothing
Adam Flores
reddit assures me it's only drumpf supporters and they don't matter.
Andrew Rogers
Are they even allowed to talk about ratings or ticket sales?
Mason Howard

sports should stick to entertaining people with sports.
>Star Trek: Discovery star Sonequa Martin-Green pointedly kneeled for an Instagram post along with the CBS show’s executive producer Akiva Goldsman and several other members of the cast (such as Anthony Rapp, Michelle Yeoh, Mary Wiseman, Mary Chieffo and Shazad Latif). The image included the hashtags #StarTrekDiscovery #takeaknee. The post went live a few hours after the world premiere of Discovery on CBS.
>Later, Martin-Green added: “Thank you. All of you. CBS, writers, producers, directors, crew and cast. For your gifts and fervor. And thank you, those watching. For tuning in. For your passion, support, and love. I. Do. NOT take it lightly. I thank God for you. And I’m excited to take this journey with you.”
>Previously Discovery made some waves after the show’s producer Aaron Harberts discussed with EW the political allegory being explored in the show’s first season storyline, noting the writing process “began as a commentary on our own divided nation — in terms of Trump supporters and non-Trump supporters …The Klingons are going to help us really look at certain sides of ourselves and our country. Isolationism is a big theme. Racial purity is a big theme.

Star Trek's always done this shit

Sebastian Parker
(((They))) have to inject (((the narrative))) into every established entertainment property. Two reasons: 1) Because nobody accepts (((the narrative))) without an established popular hook, and 2) because any entertainment product without (((propaganda))) will immediately outsell the one full of (((propaganda)))

>some woman that you don't know gets beaten up >show that you tune into to relax shows solidarity with Marxist narrative with you as the evil bourgeois; narrative has already caused riots, murders (DEAD women, not just beaten), and a class of economic vampires, and that's not even counting everyday criminality
