NFL Ratings Crash in Season Opener, Total Audience Numbers Lowest Since 2009
By Dylan Gwinn 7 Sep 2018

..."With a 13.4/5 in the metered markets, the post-midnight ending game is down 8% from last year’s kickoff of September 7, 2017. In one of the lowest season openers ratingswise and facing portions of a cable news-covered rally by a very NFL critical President Donald Trump, last night’s game is not only down from last year, but 2016, 2015 and 2014 – all of which saw successive declines.
To add more injury to that, the 2017 8:42 PM ET-starting season opener between the victorious Kansas City Chiefs and New England Patriots ended up with a weak 7.7/29 rating among adults 18-49 and 21.8 million viewers. That was a double digit decline from 2016 and the worst total audience an opening game had since 2009."...

Welcome to the 2018 version of the 1975 movie Rollerball:
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0073631/
Storyline
In a futuristic society where corporations have replaced countries, the violent game of Rollerball is used to control the populace by demonstrating the futility of individuality. However, one player, Jonathan E., rises to the top, fights for his personal freedom, and threatens the corporate control.
PS
If you were casting the 2018 version of the movie, any guesses on
1. Who the corporate figures are?
2. Who Jonathan E. is?

I don't think so. I've seen folks in sports bars ask to change the channel when the National fools league is on. We ate at the Osage casino tonight. Several of the patrons asked if the TV's could be changed to different channels other than the game that was playing. Comments about FAWK the nfl were pretty evident.
Now tomorrow, I'll be listening to the Sooners while at the match at our range,(bluetooth through my muffs) and later watching OSU on FSN at home. Seems the college coaches/teams have the ability to keep their athletes playing the game instead of playing social games for personal recognition and forcing others that don't agree with them to comply.
Do you agree that players in the national fools league should force other players that don't agree to join them or else? Well documented actions btw.
The colleges have the leverage with scholarship, unpaid and unrepresented athletes that lack collective bargaining.
NFL athletes have a player association and contracts that allow them privileges regarding social media.
I’m not arguing for or against either, by the way. But there’s a huge difference when NCAA athletes aren’t union employees, or employees at all.

HELL YES! My tax dollars bought and paid for a "patriotic display," and by Gawd, I want my money's worth!
In your profession would you agree to be forced to perform your job in a manner you didn't think was right in your own opinion?
