    Two things can't be true at the same time, so it MUST be that the NFL is in super-duper good shape. :)

    yea thats a part of it, trace the "protest" back to its roots where lives the implication that "the white man" is just so "racist" that he cant help but build a society that "hunts down poor black youths"

    course in reality all these BLM protests pop up when some career criminal gets lawfully put down during the commission of a crime or as a result of trying to harm/kill a cop

    The NFL ratings numbers are worse than we think. While there's a dip in ratings, they can't measure the lost passion. Many people will keep the games on TV as background music while they do things around the house.

    Yes, the TV is on and it's showing an NFL game. But no one is actually sitting there and watching. They don't find it compelling anymore.

    LOL Only you would blame Trump for the NFL declining when it started 3 months earlier.

    Again, please research it. They are lowering their Q4 outlook. And since their q3 earning beat expectations, then the NFL "hurting their business" is nothing but their own speculation that it might hurt them in Q4

    This has more to do with the owner being a Trump fanboy than anything else. There are still enough people watching the NFL every week to make it a smart business decision to advertise during games.

    It's not just Papa John's.... all Pizza franchises are suffering as millions of Americans are not ordering Pizza at home on Sundays to watch the games. They are doing something, anything else.

    Papa Johns is losing money because it has become a poorly run business, and your false projections about why players are kneeling just reveals your willingness to lie to support your own partisanship.

    Why should they tolerate Black Supremacist racists trashing America?

    I'm glad the NFL is suffering. They deserve it.

    You really think we would turn down big money to make a point for Trump?
