? Forbes estimated that the NFL would lose 38% of its total revenues if 2020 were played entirely without fans.

As it was, with some stadia full and others limited or empty, NFL revenues dropped by 4 billion dollars, or about 25%

 

That's a pretty large drop out of the bucket

Okay, maybe I spoke out my azs to a degree, what I said is more accurate than what the poster I commented on stated, by the way, do those numbers reflect the new TV / advertising contract dollars?  But getting back to the poster who seems to think he and his cohort have some kind of “right” well that’s still a lol statement, in which they chose to view…. That they chose to view affords them no rights, 

 

Go Bills!!!

The advertising dollars don't materialize without the fans. 

It also does not afford any rights, being that viewing is optional…,

Players don’t play for fans. They play for their teammates and themselves.

 

act accordingly

Do you really believe that Josh Allen doesn’t play for the us at all?  Sure, his teammates, staff and family are higher on the totem pole, but I assure you that he plays for us.  I can’t say every player does….. but Josh Allen does

How about the right to complain? You're 'advertising pays the rent' point was in response to:

 

"The people that fund every reason the NFL exists, have every right to complain about player and team performances."

 Lol...Wonder if his agent told him to apologize or Reid, staff etc? Or did he decide to apologize on his own?

The fans don’t fund hardly any of it, the advertising contract dollars are where the money comes from, ticket and merchandise sales are a drop in the bucket by comparison, it’s so funny that some fans actually think this…, 

 

Seriously?  It's amazing that you don’t know why advertising money is given.

[muppy]

social media: more of a blessing or a curse in our world...hmmmmmm..I would say that depends on how you choose to partake of it. The internet is forever tis a very different existance than I could/would have ever imagined living through. Instnt communication  instant knowledge instant Dirt instant backpedal...its getting Routine!

Someone needs to explain to a poster commenting on mine, why he apologized.

I absolutely do, it is to get (in this case) Football fans to spend money on stuff that will likely be in a land fill with in a years time, your argument doesn’t hold water, being that you voluntarily view does not give you “rights”,  that is like saying someone watching Jeopardy has supposed rights because of the advertising revenue gained during the program, it’s as laughable as what you stated.
 

At least we will both be in agreement that the Bills are going to kick the Fins azsez for sixty straight minutes, 👍

 

Go Bills!!!

Society as a whole is toxic because of the internet. I’m not a Chiefs fan, but I don’t think there’s much to see here. 

The internet just gives toxic people a pseudo-anonymous outlet for their impulsive thoughts.

worse.   way worse.   Bills Mafia/This Board turns into Bills Firing Squad after every loss, without fail.   You can set your watch to it. 

This is only the case because this franchise has yet to win a super bowl. Fans are tired of incompetence. 

[John from Riverside]

Hitchens absolutely has a point 

[RobbRiddick]

If you've been on the Chiefs forum you'll see they are particularly vile. It's all half naked women avatars (because they're REAL men) and lots of tough, manly talk with lots of cussing. But there doesn't seem to be a lot between the ears.

 

If you could attribute a film director to each team's fanbase then KC would definitely be Michael Bay

He does. He didn't massively overpay himself did he?

I do have thoughts on this.  However, if you want to experience them I have a Tik Tok video about it, using weak pop music, lip syncing and quick scene changes in what I am wearing.

“This might be one of the most toxic fan bases in all of sports,” Mathieu wrote on his verified Instagram account.

Mathieu was agreeing with Hitchens, who posted a comment defending himself after the Chiefs fan account listed Hitchens’ contract as one of the three worst moves from Chiefs General Manager Brett Veach.

“All we did was go to 3 AFC championship games and 2 Super Bowls and 1 SB win in my first 3 years here so far,” Hitchens wrote. “y’all fans will never be satisfied it’s sad!”

Funny but I remember in the 90s when a lot of people in Buffalo complained about Kelly everyone he threw a pick or got embarrassed on MNF by Pittsburgh or “the bickering Bills” after every loss even though we won like crazy. Seems like we forget that.

I get that as a collective the fans fund the nfl, but a lot of fans take themselves waaaaay to seriously.

[bigduke6]

some KC fans are pretty friggen bad tho.   their gameday forums are a trash pile.       Honeybadger should keep talkin sh!t at his teams fanbase tho,  cuz when they turn all the way on him,  ill laugh.....alot.
