Ratings for NFL Hall of Fame Game Crash to All-Time Low

It’s often said that you never get a second chance to make a first impression. However, if the first impression the NFL made on the television ratings this season in any indication of where they’re headed, Commissioner Roger Goodell is going to ask for a second chance.

Ratings for the NFL’s Hall of Fame game on Thursday night registered a 4.1 in metered markets, an all-time low number for the league’s inaugural preseason game.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, “That’s down about 15 percent from a 4.8 last year — which ended up translating to 6.77 million viewers in the finals, a low for the game that marks the beginning of the league’s preseason slate.”

Following American Football is for idiots. The players are all overpaid morons, and the game is a big waste of time. The ball is actually in motion 18 minutes in an entire game! (Sports Illustrated timed it on several games played in NFL)
Then if your stupid enough to pay those ridicules prices for a ticket to go to a game, you might as well just set fire to your cash.

I can't watch the garbage anymore. It's a bunch of attention whores that are more worried about creating a brief social media entity instead of appreciating and honoring the chance to play at the highest level
