Although the team claimed to have distributed 70,301 tickets, the actual attendance was significantly lower, with estimates hovering around 10,000 attendees or fewer.

The inclement weather undoubtedly contributed to this historically low turnout.

Nevertheless, lingering questions persist regarding the impact of the team’s owner, David Tepper, on the erosion of fan support in recent seasons…

Cuban turns $285 million into $3.5 billion AND he maintains control — a totally unprecedented move in sports.

And the percentage of women in the NFL's league office reached an all-time high of 41.3% in 2022, up from 29.6% in 2014.

But despite improvements, the NFL still faces gender-related challenges and workplace culture issues.

20/11/2023

Reporters across sports media were shocked and angry at Thompson’s admission over the weekend.

Thompson, who used to work as a sideline reporter for Fox Sports, casually admitted that she fabricated mid-game hits when she didn’t have anything solid to report.

Not a great look for sideline reporters and females across sports, especially when you consider that Charissa Thompson is at the top of the profession…yikes.

15/11/2023

With abundant evidence that interest in the league spans beyond our borders, could we see more involvement overseas?

"Mexico City is easy in terms of, I mean it's high altitude, it's 2,000 feet higher than Denver, so that affects the players a bit, but it's a shorter flight to Mexico City from New York than it is to LA, so...One day, I think that would be incredible to actually expand to a market like Mexico City."

Would be cool to see a Reebok revival 👟

Both men had high-profile shoe deals with them during their playing days.

From 8 am-2 pm, ESPN had ZERO discussions about the start of the MLB playoffs…

The obvious answer is that the networks know NFL and NBA rule the day.

But the question still remains—why do ESPN and FS1 pay hundreds of millions to air NHL, college basketball, MLB, tennis, golf, etc, and not spend some time talking about those sports as well?

The answer is pretty simple. Data shows viewers change the channel or stop watching at a higher rate when they talk about those sports.

The video went viral on Vine and has lived on as a meme ever since. Fast forward to 2023, Collin used social media to draw attention from Popeyes.

That’s the value Nike received from Woods’ on-camera exposure during the final round of the Masters—where viewers can see the Nike swoosh on Tiger's hat, shirt, pants, and shoes.
