Unthinkable scenrio: Losing the NFL Season

NFL survives long term (>10yrs) yes up--down no
"Financial Hemorrhage" The WAPO article is focusing on the impact of COVID and TV networks, but I think the damage from politicization of the NFL league is much more severe than they realize. If the fan base is really turned off, then at some point the MSM is going to be forced to pivot and cry "we COVID safe", and then desperately start waving the American Flag,pay to have F16's flying,and be all patriotic by stand/kneeling with Colin Kaepernick or some such bullshite.
I quoted below so you don't have to WAPO

NFL, which accounted for 41 of the 50 top-rated telecasts of any kind in 2019. The lack of certainty has led to uncomfortable conversations among executives.
“It’s practically the only thing on the minds of the networks,” said John Kosner, a former ESPN executive who is an industry consultant. “If you lost an NFL season, you’re looking at a financial hemorrhage.”

I doubt it. People said the same thing when the kneeling started. The NFL took a brief dip in ratings before rebounding with one of their best years ever financially.

The NFL made their bed let them lay in it, it isn't a bunch of BLM SJWs filling those arenas, it's red blooded Americans, the NFL is doomed.

The whole COVID thing sucks but I wouldn't mind seeing the NFL lose an entire season. I hope it hurts the owners and I would enjoy watching spoiled millionaires crying about missed mortgage payments, late car notes and pissed off baby mamas.

Think of the players the XFL can sign for a song.

I’ll gladly accept a forfeited season at this point solely to avoid the PC getting shoved down our throats every sunday
