Running NFL Draft thread

To keep it quite what? Quite quiet?

 

In his defense, that's how my dad pronounces "quiet."

 

Just havin' a little fun.

 

.......but probably not how he spells it.......

 

It's all fun and games until someone drafts a running back in the top 5.

 

Game 1 of Caps v Penguins counter-programming.

With the rats jumping and being pushed from the SS Bristol, overall cable viewership going down and millennials refusing to be tethered to cable or long term contracts, we are witnessing the denouement of the NFL and ESPN. IT will recede slowly, maybe imperceptibly at first, but the fall is beginning. Rule changes, over saturation, health concerns, and contempt of fans has and will continue to erode interest. Yes, TV contracts are at an all time high, but bubbles don't burst until they are overinflated. And the lag between the beginning of the fall and recognition of the downward trend is the difference between winners and losers in a bear market.

 

As long as the NFL draft is still outdrawing the championships in other sports in terms of viewers, that's not happening any time soon.

 

Anyone who is not paid to watch the draft but watches it is a moron. In fact, when the kids from the Special Olympics get together they make fun of the retards who watch the NFL draft

 

While that might be true, it is also true that WAY more people watch the NFL draft than watch NHL playoff games airing at the same time.

Just sayin'.

 

You seem like a good dude.

 

Trump is the republican nominee FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, Dwight Howard makes $23,000,000 a year, Soylent Green was renamed chicken McNuggets and people still eat it and Kim Kardashian is more widely recognized than James Watson, Francis Crick and Maurice Wilkins.

We are in a world of shit.

 

Then maybe you shouldn't be predicting the downfall of the NFL and ESPN.
