Trump vs Sports

That's ok. Pretty soon there won't be any need for security at NFL games. Because there won't be anybody there to protect.

There is a reported drop in ticket sales, which may distinguish the "season ticket" holders as a factor. That estimate is in the 30% range. Based on attitudes toward "respect" for our national symbols increasing as the days wear on, which polls are showing, then the reduced sales may well continue "reducing."

The "issue" is going to be as the season wears on there is a customary decrease in enthusiasm accompanied by fewer ticket sales.

A factor is how many tickets are purchased by players/staff to make up the loss in sales to the public.

STFU asshole. You posted this photo to try and show the effect of player protests on the NFL.

“Let nature run its course,”was what you said.

It’s yet another example of your disingenuousness.

But then, in typical fashion, you double down, claiming that ticket sales are down 30%. (“A reported drop” ... by whom? Where? Again, just bullshit.)

And you even inferred that the NFL and it’s players are papering the house.

How about some fucking evidence of that? Outside of the RWW fake news, who is reporting a drop of 17%... if you believe Twitler’s bullshit machine. Even if such bastions of truth (zerohedge, conservative sandbox, onenews, etc.) are correct, which is highly doubtful, you claim ticket sales are down by nearly TWICE that figure. So basically you’ve taken a bullshit report and run it back through the bull.

What a liar you are.

But at least you’ve got Jim on your side. He probably believes that picture was taken last weekend!

Damn!

This is what it looked like during the game. There were plenty of people.

I don't know about that. There was no need for prediction of the size of the crowd since the game was in 2016. It is well documented how many attended that game. I think he didn't research the image or was just being misleading.

looks like Soros and the NFL players union was behind the football protests.

I knew that damnable traitor was behind it..

AND why is it we are now up to 420 seconds between postings? The updates started out at 300 seconds (5 mintues) then went to 360 seconds (6 minutes).. NOW we are at 7 minutes?!?!?

When reviewing this thread logic indicates why there are so often "new threads" started on topics by certain posters. The "why" is some want other posters to forget what they posted so they can either deny it, modify it, or pretend it doesn't exist. There is also the reason they can "paraphrase" what someone posted and them accusing them of posting shit they didn't post. Liberals do that constantly.

When Liberals do it it sounds like: I was for it, before I was against, and now it doesn't matter: It's "old news"!
