True! But at least the NFL is very transparent about injuries and bc it's week to week and they do A LOT to protect the QB nowadays and have tightened up a lot of ish, it's just a more exciting product in the Regular Season!
The injury issues are definitely not why nba ratings are falling it’s bc you have to pay to watch your home team you have to pay for league pass and you have to pay to watch teams playing on cable and paying to watch a sport that calls foul inconsistently and jacking up 3’s with no defense and it’s just watered down version of the sport
Definitely! Access is a HUGE problem and it seems pretty stupid they can't figure it out! League Pass is POINTLESS if I can't watch Marquee games and yet other games are Blacked Out! But Bro, if I'm a Clippers or Sixers fan, I'm NOT GOING because the guys I wanna see NEVER PLAY. Heck, even if I'm a Zion or Ja fan I'm not spending ish! It's a BAD look esp when the NFL is right there and dudes be killing themselves!
my 2 cents on the injury/load management and "future" with injuries and keeping players healthy. keep in mind im not coming to these players Aid or defending them whatsoever... BUT - them having sprained ankles, foots, etc - yes 10-20 years ago players would play through smaller injuries , but they also wouldnt have longevity in their careers due to small injuries turning into bigger health or bigger injuries down the road .. even if its not a career ending injury like some , small injuries that arent treated correctly, nor are they healed properly can lead to career ending injuries or problems later down the road.. a sprained ankle that isnt fully heal can turn into a torn achilles if u go out there and play on it (even if it feels like your not that bad sprained, or its not 100% fully healed) .. so yeah NBA and Health trainers have moved forward with technology and rehabilition, but the only thing different is their more cautious of putting players out "too early" off an injury that could impact their game, or career and longevity playing the game.. Derrick Rose is a Prime Example of waiting 2-3 seasons for injury because im sure if he was rushed back he woulda retired even 5+ years earlier than what he did.
Great points and definitely true in certain situations! But like, if you look at players like Embiid or Kawhi, even Zion and Ja... THEY CAN'T STAY ON THE COURT no matter how long they're held out! Zion has played in LESS than 50% of games, with Kawhi, it seems like he practices and works out Maniacally but then can't EVER be healthy? As a die hard NBA fan myself, I 💯 am not gonna spend $300 for a live ticket if the best player ain't playing! Look at Embiid man... It's a absolute freak show in Philly AND THEY KEEP DOUBLING DOWN! The guy doesn't care about his fans or the Organization, it sucks to Watch. You don't see this level of Entitlement in the NFL, and it shows in the Results!

I’m not going to a NFL game if my favorite quarterback is hurt either

True. The fact that the stars almost never play definitely doesn’t help. Spurs game was a ghost town because Wemby misses games

Yeah it’s best to wait midway or end of a video
For? Could you elaborate?
You are too loud in the opening. Its driving fans away. Gave you a like tho....
Thank You for the Support! Cheers 🫡
