Sad day for play by play fans
RoyBatty is alive replied to gomper's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
LOL, Someone needs to ask his opinion about the NFL and kneeling, see what a bumbling response he gives. In 1968, Musburger penned a column regarding Tommie Smith and John Carlos's protest of racial injustice in the United States with a Black Power salute on the medal stand during the 1968 Summer Olympics. In it he stated "Smith and Carlos looked like a couple of black-skinned storm troopers" who were "ignoble," "juvenile," and "unimaginative." In a 1999 article in The New York Times, Musburger stated that comparing the two to the Nazis was "harsh", but he stood by his criticism of the pair's action: According to Carlos, Musburger never apologized: -

Just FYI, Price of nat gas is going nowhere for years, probably decades, you can hedge out easily 5 years with the curve in very slight contango, not even worth the carry cost. -

Oh my god, i just looked who replaced him, Brent Musberger. Can that man please please retire already. I never liked him in his prime but he is dreadful now, forgets things, mixes up names constantly, relies on his good ole stories from 30 years ago. -
Rex actually for about the first 15 mintues of the broadcast was pretty entertaining, had some great anecdotes by by the early middle part of the game all his set pieces were exhausted and was totally lost for what to say. It was just embarrassing listening to him at that point.

LOL no kidding, The man missed one game due to a concussion mid-year and after over a month off football , couldnt even play in his bowl game, sorry that alone would take him out of my top ten. What he says and what he does is starting to grate on me as well. Fixing the NCAA, what a farce, what an ego.

NFL disperses record shared revenue
RoyBatty is alive replied to Mr. WEO's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Sports ebb and flow with popularity, to think football is magically immune is shortsighted at best. Remember when Baseball wa always going to be Amrica's Sport, what happened there? In the 1930s the three dominant sports were Horse Racing, Boxing and Baseball? Where is horse racing and boxing today? Attendance last year league overall was down half a million, Super Bowls adds adjusted for inflation went down. Not conjecture, facts. There is an entire litany of potential problems facing the NFL. 1) CTE 2) Technology threats to TV revenue source 3) Product itself: too many penalties, too many arbitrary calls and questionable officiating, what exactly is a catch, etc etc etc. It is a QB driven league, you dont have a top tier QB odds of success are incredibly diminish. I cut back watching for all these reasons. 4) The entire kneeling anthem thing, it has alienated some to think otherwise is either political agenda drive or just downright foolish. 5) Over saturation driven by greed. Thursday nights games are terrible, some Sundays you can watch NFL from about 9am til 10 pm. 6) Attended football games is getting excessively expensive and fan behavior is an issue. Oh yeah there are some real isues here. -

Maybe so and even maybe I am a twit, then again someone that comes here so often and knows all the commonly used "TBDisms" is almost by definition a twit, at least imo, from one twit to another. -

What a second, before you spout off any further how do you know her breasts are fake?

Agree on the 100%. I dont know about the farm system for NFL, the product (NFL Europe) tends to be unwatchable and it is too expensive and the NFL has a free farm system in the the NCAA.

Because at that point they are nothing more than employees, might as well just stop the charade and pay them.

Yeah, inertia is a great thing on the way up. Average cost adjusted for inflation for the Super Bowl ads actually went down -

Kim Pegula sholud be the face of t4he NFL owners, lets get real here. 1) She is hot 2) She is not 90 years old 3) Women and a minority (diversity blah blah blah) 4) She is tough, look at the way she handled Incognito coming here. She is a great marketer. I think she is smarter than Terry, one thing is for sure, she sure is a much much better interview than Terry could ever be. 5) And most importantly, she is hot.
