Tornado Alley (PROG)

Non-antifa protest

If I was an employee who made a visual political statement every time the entertainment package (football game, concert, visit to Starbucks, dinner at a restaurant) that I was an integral part of, I should not be surprised to be fired.

I would have to follow the rules of my employer. Why not in the NFL?

If I was a football player who wanted to stand for the national anthem and saw the ratings plunging--and I was entering into contract negotiations soon--I would be ticked off.

I would be crazy to think that the deterioration of the NFL experience is not going to impact my compensation. That is just common sense. (Wow. I might have stumbled on something. Common sense is not being used often nowadays.)

The economics of the NFL are changing fast. And with declining revenue comes tighter compensation controls going forward.

The NFL is no longer a Golden Goose.

The frustration is as much with the employers as the employees.

Nice presentation.
