  1. Yes the left owns this attack on the police. They own the burning and pillaging of cities. They own calling everything racist without evidence. Beating up the elderly and screaming obscenities in their faces. Terrorizing people walking down the street and at restaurants.

     

    If this was the right this would be a non-stop attack of domestic terrorism and the attackers arrested in 15 min with DA to release them. 

     

    This is the US of liberalism. Deny it all you want, but this is the logical conclusion until they gain complete power. They are too stupid to realize what happens when they get it and and far too dumb to study history.

    Sorry toast it is a recognized legal theory. Your side already lost. Open your eyes at what happened with the shooter in Kenosha with the police. The separate but equal fantasy was grounded in 1954. The desperate swarm to justify black killings does not hold up to comparative scrutiny. We can do better because we are better than this. 

     

    So if this is grounded in reality today is this the same for Japanese, Chileans, and Iranians? Seems like some pretty weird legal theories.

     

    Also, this isn't 1954 America. White woman are claiming to be other races for jobs. That wouldn't happen in 1954 would it?

    Enlightened? or Racist?

    Folks, when they convince you to relinquish one Amendment, and kneel on 9/11 for a false flag, they will take the rest. Never been a fan of his, but I respect him now

     

    I want to see how the media would react to a white guy kneeling for the Black National Anthem. I could imagine the balanced and nuanced takes that would exist, and see how they really feel about kneeling for the anthem. Their mask would get ripped off for what it is.

    So you are suggesting Nixon and Reagan were not successful republicans in the world diplomacy. That is the definition.

     

    Politics, like man, act in concrete situations not merely from a set philosophy. Unless you think the USSR still exists, and China is a 3rd world nation.

    Remember when you celebrated this a year or so ago ?

     

     

    Harris was rightly punished for abusing mail-in ballots,

     

    Now, you act like it can't be done.

     

    Some consistency on the Left would be nice.......................................................I know, I know. ?

    You sir are a lunatic. I say that because to demand consistency by the left this late in the game is the ultimate cry of insanity.

    I find the lack of a proper understanding of the "BLM" movement absolutely staggering.

     

    BLM is a Marxist organisation that preaches evil Marxist doctrine - fullstop. Their own official website attests to this with no ambiguity whatsoever.

     

    If you believe in individual responsibility and individual choice then you are by default idealogically opposed to BLM.

     

    None of this means that you approve of mistreatment of minorities - or anybody for that matter.

     

    Like the players - whose rights I completely respect - I will also be exercising my rights this football season by hitting the mute button whenever BLM is raised. That will be my form of protest.

     

    Meanwhile I will continue to pray for those less fortunate than myself.

     

     

    Sounds like you just don't understand how bad things really are. WOW tone-deaf to the max. 

     

    Yes BLM is a Marxist organization and yes one of the founders is openly a Marxist. So what? There are a lot of goodness found in the gulag if you do the study. Stalin and Chairman Mao were generous and it's a misunderstanding that those 2 together killed more people than WWI and WWII combined. They were actually quite loving.

    Another move towards East German style government. Any word of outrage from Libertarians? 

     

    Just a conservative but I can tell you it's Constitutional. All monopolies pose a threat to democracy. 

     

    If one newspaper dominated 80% of the news I would say the same thing. 

     

    Also, all of these companies already get exemptions from lawsuits as neutral 3rd parties in theory. They've broken that with absolute proof. They should not be immune from lawsuits then. 

     

    You can't claim "we're private" in one breath and ask for gov't immunity in another. 

     

    Next, if you're a progressive why do you like the biggest corporations and the biggest lobby groups?

    19 years ago today, law enforcement and police, along with firefighters, were national heroes, as they raced into burning buildings, sacrificing their lives to save people of every race and ethnicity...19 years later they are national villains so that people are allowed to burn down our country with impunity...

    Out of rep to give you a thumbs up, but WOW you couldn't have summarized it better.

     

    The country is burning physically and metaphorically and the biggest problem we face is racism while professors are claiming to be black because blacks can't get ahead in life.

     

    The world is upside down.

    Compounded by the long anticipation for the season to begin, which would argue for much higher ratings.

     

    This is my point though. People can't go out to eat as easily, they can't do as many things, and they are home. TV use and internet use is at an all-time high even with people cutting cable and the ratings drop. 

     

    A 16% drop isn't a typical 16% drop. This is a big deal. Down-play it all you want, it's going to hurt the NFL massively long-term.

    As for why rates are increasing, it has nothing to do with total users. That's a pretty common misconception. Total users is a vanity metric. It looks impressive and a lot of people think there's a correlation between total users and conversion, but a lot of the time there isn't. What matters is conversion, and what drives conversion are personas and what drives all of it are defining correct KPIs or Key performance Indicators. Determining the magic of what makes a person click "buy" is the whole magic behind all of it, and I don't proclaim to know a secret handshake for it, but I've done it successfully (and sometimes not) for over a decade. What makes that cost go up? Value and inflation. As companies start to sharpen their personas, the likelihood of conversion goes up, and thus the price.

     

    This is the correct answer. It's about conversions, which is why I said number of users isn't the biggest metric. It will affect it long-term. Maybe I judged you wrong on media buying. 

     

    That's why even with the increase of MAU and DAU during Covid on Facebook their prices have declined on a CPM basis. Conversions dropped.

     

    So now that you and I both know the gig what happens if the the user base truncates? You might be able to squeeze the advertiser short term for conversions but you can't hold that up. As long as the advertiser is getting sufficient conversions he can swallow it.

     

    Ratings are down 16% on the season opener. You don't think will affect negotiations if this continues? I do. It's undeniable it will happen, it's a when question.

     

    16% is a huge deal when you have the SB champions play another playoff team.

    Their entire business model is based around TV. It's like saying if it wasn't for the iPhone, Apple would be in trouble today. It's a stupid argument.

    The NFL is expected to make bank when its rights are back up for renewal, and I see the NBA skyrocketing too. Your hurt feelings due to other people's right to live notwithstanding.

    For the record, I have also bought and sold tens of millions of dollars in advertising as the creator of ad-supported applications. Please inform me about what else I don't know.

    https://www.cnbc.com/2020/02/22/nfl-tv-rights-up-for-renewal-in-2022-and-big-media-will-pay-more.html

     

    The entire model is not around TV, it's around fans. Destroy fanhood and no one watches on TV. Squeezing every penny from viewers by the 1,000 (CRM for those that don't know) doesn't work long-term. It's more like saying if people didn't use the Iphone Apple's stock would be worth less. Only a stupid person would deny that. 

     

    Call potential BS on much of what you said. There is no way you sold tens of millions of ads as the creator of an application. App creators, and I've been their media buyer, don't buy media personally. They hire people when they hit the level you proclaim you hit. So either you don't know the person you're writing to, or pretending you wore all the hats. Media buying, especially at the level of a million dollar+ app is not a part time job for an operation that big.

     

    Let's go back to media on TV and since you know all this stuff:

    Facebook's user base hasn't increased with real users in years yet their CRM costs are rising

    The same is true with Google search, their CRMs have gone up dramatically without massive increases to their users

     

    Can you explain why then if you are such an accomplished media buyer? And once you explain the answer then you'll see why TV revenue can still increase in the short term.

    How is this stupid thread still a thread?

     

    @Deranged Rhino... here's an idea. Delete the thread. 

     

    Evidently your goal is to sow even more division in a place already divided 

     

    Yeah because when the right is divided we argue back. When the left is divided they argue we shouldn't have the right to argue back...

     

    But gaslighting?

    This sounds like shut up and just play.  Why can Kid Rock, Dana White, etc voice their opinions but nfl players can?

     

    They can say whatever they want, but no one wants them turning the sport into a political charade and using the influence of media to silence and worse destroy people who disagree like Drew Brees. 

     

    Worse they shouldn't force on us a league doing it. Personal stuff, go ahead, but don't make it about the lies this is about Kaep is right, they is a capitulation to the mob. 

     

    What @Jerome007 said was right. They are decimating people's fanhood in the league, mine included.

    Why do you assume they would lose viewership? I'm sure they ran the numbers.

     

    Not an assumption. Look up ratings over the last decade as it drops. Look at the NBA this playoff time because it's happening there too.
