A couple weeks ago, we learned that the NFL is increasingly unpopular amongst older viewers. Fast-forward a couple weeks, and we learn that younger viewers don’t particularly care for the league either.
The Public Religion Research Institute recently released the findings of a poll which analyzed fan interest in football across different age groups. The results of that poll, will not sit well with the NFL.
Writing in The Big Lead, Jason Lisk described the poll results: “According to the poll, only 22% of those aged 18-29 say they are likely to watch the NFL on Sundays (10% who say they are likely to both watch football and go to church, 12% who say they watch football only). That’s nearly half of the total for those age 30-49, where 41% say they are likely to be watching football on Sundays.”

The only thing young people like about the NFL is the pre-game partying.
Well, I've never heard of the "The Public Religion Research Institute", but after reading the article, they did more than poll different age groups.
They went on to be extremely divisive by cutting the crowd up by race, color, creed, and financial status. Without further research, I'm wondering if they also divided by sexual preference.
I think any organization that looks an us with that much divisiveness is one to completely ignore, as they probably picked who to poll by those very demographics to drive their own agenda.
I'll stick with asking a few of my friends what they think, then continue my boycott with them.
Great !! They better start STANDING for Natl Anthem !!!
Guess that's why fox just shelled out 550 million for Thursday night football
No vet ad no watch super bowl nor any NFL game. NFL uses ads made up of drugs that no one knows what they are for and Hollywood. No thanks. Think I go to the beach. Should be in the high 70s
