So I guess the Nielsen ratings showing a 17.5% decline from 2015 are fake news too?

I'm not a liberal.

I don't need Sean Hannity's gang of dipshits to piss on my head and tell me it's raining.

I like watching the NFL because they are the best athletes my favorite sport has to offer and I don't let Trumps twitter account affect things I enjoy.

You peddle fake news.

You're not very good at this.

Yeah. It shows up on a lot of crap sites with no citation.

Number #96 in the supposed " Chiefs boycott" photo is Andy Studebaker who last played alongside Eric Berry in 2012 when the Chiefs were 2-14.

So the " great "NFL boycott of 2017" is using misleading photos of the Chiefs from 2010-12 at best.

The NFL actually had empty seats in 2012 before the kneeling boycott? Who would've thunk it.

That's covered in the SBD piece. I don't think you're going to like their conclusions though.

They play pro football on Thursday nights? Who knew?

Why are they cancelling it? Are they not getting tons of viewers for those Cleveland Browns games?

The left is hilarious.

Of course, what do I expect?

These are the same morons who run around claiming the Soviet collapse had nothing to do with their economic system.

can cancel all nfl games as far as I am concerned. When everyone stands and respects the athem, people will start watching again.

Trust me there are not that many empty seats at any Chiefs games, except in warm ups or the game is over. It has been that way since the Frank Ganz days. I believe the Leavy years were the only horrible attendance years.

This photo is from 2012 at the very latest.

I think the Chiefs had nearly 20 consecutive Home sellout seasons until 2009 after a 2-14 2008 season. They had some dreadful seasons / down years for a short spell ,but they are among the most enthusiastic NFL fans.

No but a picture of a late season game in Arrowhead with Berry in it, kind of gives it away

The picture also shows #96 Andy Studebaker who last played for the Chiefs in 2012. I'm going to go out on a limb and guess this picture was taken on November 18, 2012 when we lost to the Bengals 28-6 and were 1-9 at that point in the season.
