Well, you would be adorably wrong. I'm not sure what CRM is in the context of advertising, but CPM or Cost Per Mille and RPM (Revenue per mille) are very familiar to me as are their cost per click, cost per conversion, install or action counterparts. How did I buy and sell tens of millions of dollars in advertising as a creator of ad supported applications? Of course not all of these were direct ad buys where I was on the phone with the CMO from Ford talking about their new pickup truck ads, though at one of the places I worked this did happen from time to time as the products I built were leveraged as PAAS and SAAS offering by some of the biggest companies int he world and we ran the entire advertising platform. Much of it was programmatic at one shop and at another I worked with a handful of networks daily, built ad mediation software, and bought ad placements for my own application as well as generated millions of dollars in ad revenue annually in the mobile space. If you want to get in a dick swinging competition with me over this I'd suggest you reconsider. While I wouldn't exactly consider myself an SME in advertising against some of my more knowledgeable counterparts, it has been something I've done part time (yes, part time) in roles overseeing products for years. As for facebook's user base. I can say with 100% certainty that not only has their overall user base increased (which is honestly not a very valuable metric), but their Monthly Average Users (MAU) and Daily Average Users (DAU) have skyrocketed since the pandemic. As for why rates are increasing, it has nothing to do with total users. That's a pretty common misconception. Total users is a vanity metric. It looks impressive and a lot of people think there's a correlation between total users and conversion, but a lot of the time there isn't. What matters is conversion, and what drives conversion are personas and what drives all of it are defining correct KPIs or Key performance Indicators. Determining the magic of what makes a person click "buy" is the whole magic behind all of it, and I don't proclaim to know a secret handshake for it, but I've done it successfully (and sometimes not) for over a decade. What makes that cost go up? Value and inflation. As companies start to sharpen their personas, the likelihood of conversion goes up, and thus the price.

Their entire business model is based around TV. It's like saying if it wasn't for the iPhone, Apple would be in trouble today. It's a stupid argument. The NFL is expected to make bank when its rights are back up for renewal, and I see the NBA skyrocketing too. Your hurt feelings due to other people's right to live notwithstanding. For the record, I have also bought and sold tens of millions of dollars in advertising as the creator of ad-supported applications. Please inform me about what else I don't know. https://www.cnbc.com/2020/02/22/nfl-tv-rights-up-for-renewal-in-2022-and-big-media-will-pay-more.html

I thought we didn't want any political BS in our football games?

From the game I watched I'd say absolutely. It seemed quite slow and sloppy all the way through. However, I don't think they need 4 games. 3 at max. 2 to get the starters ready and one to evaluate depth players.

With the goofy offseason I really haven't paid much attention to rookies around the league, but he must be pretty talented to have been a 1rst rd pick. He had substance problems when he was here and was battling some mental issues. He talked about it this offseason.

Watkins looking like a monster tonight.

I'm just here for Collinsworth's political takes and social justice ads.

He still has 2 pro bowl caliber WRs. It'll be different without the best in the game, but not enough for excuses.

Is there going to be pizza?

Why do you assume they would lose viewership? I'm sure they ran the numbers.

As long as he doesn't play Pancho & Lefty.

That describes all sports and most physically intensive jobs. I think they'll probably be here long after we're all in the ground. The right has unsuccessfully tried to boycott sports for years. They continue to increase in value. The money shows that people simply don't perceive them as being anti-american, despite the narrative.

Ratings are down across all sports due to the pandemic. I haven't watched a second of hockey, and I love the sport. I doubt I'll even watch that much football. https://deadspin.com/america-is-finally-getting-it-poll-shows-majority-supp-1844883422

Your vocal minority doesn't understand how small of a percentage of the population you really represent. It's scary that it's still so many, but it's not the majority of the country that you think it is.

Endearing itself to the American public. It was in response to your question.

The NBA certainly is and the NFL is starting to turn that around. The NHL being mostly non american white people has never had much of a horse in the race, and I don't follow MLB that closely.

Was there a blog post disguised as an article on OAN that I missed?

I wish leftists were as cool as you make it seem. The ones I know just post pictures of their new sourdough recipes.

I'm "successful" NFL/NBA players are "successful". There are tons and tons of "successful" people that are shining a light on systemic racism.

Why? Are you anti free speech?

That was before Trump killed 200,000 of his own people. We don't need an expensive foreign war, we have war at home.

You might want to look into systemic racism before posting anything more.

So, scaled for population ~41.4 black people were killed per 19 white people assuming your numbers are true. Yes it is.

When that opinion is that the lives of people that look different than you are worth less, than absolutely yes it's better to destroy cities. We've done it for a hell if a lot less.

At a certain point, I'd think the whole team would get shut down like what's happening in MLB
