This.  I hate both teams. I’m not watching, not interested, don’t want the NFl to get the ratings.

 

Most people in 2025 who would consider NOT watching the SB don't watch sports in ways that are actively influencing "ratings" estimates to begin with. At least not the "potential" or undecided viewers. They exist outside our data collection systems (in their minds)

I find boycotts to be pretty useless, especially of free items.  Most people are not participants of a rating service & whether they watch or not will have zero effect on the TV ratings. If someone doesn't want to watch the game, that's fine, but if they're not watching, thinking they are a social warrior, they're mistaken. 

 

Just about anything can go too far.  I recently spoke to a Californian who said they weren't bathing in order to save water.  

 

Boycotts might be our most powerful tool in the coming years (but not for "free items"). Very true, however, that TV ratings services are super outdated and arbitrary and only meaningful within self-fulfilling legacy media ecosystems anyways. 

 

I'm excited to 100% HATE-WATCH the SB again. Years of rooting against the Patriots prepared me for this. (God bless those two years of cheering on Eli Manning and Steve Spagnuolo...wait, what!?)

Yeah giving games to Amazon prime and the NFL ticket to YouTube was to maximize viewership.

This recent referee scrutiny is weird to me being that we lived through a 20-year Patriots run that was FAR worse.

This feels worse to me cuz after you get screwed you have to watch some combination of Andy Reid, pat mahomes, and the Kelce brothers in 3 consecutive commercials 🤣
