I guess the players didn't realize that the reduced viewership and lack of in person attendance would hurt their bottom line.

He and all the owners deserve this so much. They allowed their league to be taken from them by a bunch of barely high school educated simpletons because they were scared of bring called 'racist' by the left wing sports press.

And now the morons are gonna wipe out ten's of billions in value while they have to just watch like the figurative cucks they are.

It’s almost like if a restaurant constantly puts pickles on a sandwich despite a customer’s repeated requests to hold the pickles, that that customer is gonna stop going to that restaurant

Basically this.

These insecure people think they actually affect the economic system they don't even spend their money or time in.

Delusions of grandeur

These are the same people who claimed boycotted the NFL when they weren't allowing messages but aren't boycotting no more that the league actively supports the movements they hate.

League starts outwardly disparaging previous viewers.

Previous viewers state they are no longer going to watch.

Ratings tank.

League commissioner who championed the league message openly says they will now stop.

Your conclusion is that the boycotts did nothing.

Ah so you guys are also boycotting NHL?

Did they disparage and hurt you feelings as well?

You guys are delusional. Ratings for every sport is down, you guys have no effect and aren't even taken seriously unless they're selling cheap beer, trailers or guns.

And yet here we are with the NBA commissioner telling Lebron to find another spot for his tears.

I don’t pay attention to the nhl but if they did what every other professional league did then I’m sure some people did

Well just about every sport participated in some degree. My personal viewership is down significantly directly because of it and many others I know

Please tell that to Adam silver. If it’s not impacting viewing then it seems like a massive moral failure to openly disregard these issues

The epitome of stupidity of not understanding the economic importance of advertising and its role in league finances.

What I found most interesting is the sports that have done well during the Covid are at the two opposite extremes of viewers, Golf & WNBA. The WNBA ratings this year are up 68% when the men are down roughly the same %.
