NFL In Full Panic Over Incredible Revenge Veterans Have Planned For Veteran's Day
Game Sunday.
A massive Facebook group with hundreds of thousands of followers and likes has now called
for a nationwide boycott of the National Football League on Veterans Day Weekend.
The site urges fans around the country to change the channel "in solidarity" with
Americans who respect the national anthem, our flag, and those who served to protect
our rights and freedoms.
The official statement from the site urges people not to watch or listen to NFL games
on November 12 in solidarity with veterans around the country, as football players have
continued to disrespect the national anthem, the American flag, and everything our nation
stands for.
And lastly, it adds that until millionaire football players stop protesting the National
Anthem of the United States the site will be there encouraging patriotic Americans to
boycott the National Football League.
This comes after months of NFL players publicly protesting the performance of the Star-Spangled
Banner during pre-game ceremonies which has caused millions of fed up fans to change the
channel, stop buying NFL merchandise and boycotting their sponsors.
Nation's Restaurant News Reports:
Papa John's sales sacked by NFL ratings plunge
Published reports list the pizza chain among NFL sponsors complaining to the league about
viewership decline NFL ratings are down this season.
That's bad news for the league's sponsors — including Papa John's International
Inc.
These companies are apparently not taking the slide sitting down.
The Louisville-based pizza delivery chain was among a number of NFL sponsors to complain
to the league about the state of viewership, according to the New York Business Journal.
According to the publication, Papa John's told the league that pizza sales during NFL
games have fallen since Sept. 22.
That's when President Donald Trump criticized players kneeling during the national anthem
as a form of protest.
Likewise, ESPN reported today that "nearly all of the league's longtime sponsors,"
including Papa John's, were "rattled."
The company did not respond to a request for comment.
But news that NFL ratings would hurt Papa John's would hardly be surprising.
Indeed, NFL ratings have fallen 5.1 percent through the first seven weeks of the season,
according to Sporting News.
Ratings fell last year, too.
For whatever reason, be it protests or Netflix or too many games, viewers are tuning football
out.
Same-store sales at Buffalo Wild Wings Inc. have seemingly taken a corresponding hit.
The Minneapolis-based chicken wing chain has long advertised to sports fans, football in
particular — to the point that chicken wing prices increase every year during football
season.
Its same-store sales in the quarter ended Sept. 24 declined 2.3 percent at company locations
and 3.2 percent at franchised outlets.
Papa John's same-store sales increased 3.8 percent in the fourth quarter a year ago,
when the company said television ratings for football games declined 8 percent.
But executives said at the time that they felt that ratings decline.
"Given the fact that we have a significant investment into the NFL, an 8 percent rating
does play a small factor in some of our performance," company President Steve Ritchie said in February.
So many elements are potentially playing a role in weak industry sales it's difficult
to keep track of all of them.
But the NFL problem is specific to the few chains that have chosen to use football as
part of their marketing strategy.
Some analysts, including Instinet Analyst Mark Kalinowski and BTIG Analyst Peter Saleh,
have already reduced their sales targets for Papa John's as a result of the ratings weakness.
As it is, both Papa John's and Buffalo Wild Wings in recent years have expanded their
marketing efforts to other sports.
Papa John's, for instance, has a deal with Major League Baseball.
Buffalo Wild Wings is going even further, expanding into brand new sports.
The company has been a pioneering sponsor of esports, or professional gaming.
Earlier this month, the company announced the first partnership with an esports team,
Team Dignitas.
We all know most football players are illiterates who really don't seem to be able to understand
the negative repercussions their actions will have, but the owners should know better.
And because they know better they should say to the players, "You don't stand for the
anthem, you don't play!"
Simple.
And since most of these players only care about their pocketbooks and their egos they
will do what they are told to do.
