The betting won't go away. Neither will the league. It just won't make as much money as an entity. All things must pass. They were the cause of their own downfall.I have taken sports book for years, I have a number of ten year old bets on the books. They do get paid. You are right how ever to not bet due to the fact you are not a fan. You do not understand how this has become a part of our lives over the years and what we will do to defend it.You do not understand neither of us will be able to collect in ten years. hahaPut your money where your mouth is! I will take wagers on where the NFL will be in ten years. You do not understand the fan base, we will not let it die!Yes, yes. They cancelled the broadcast, admittedly for lack of interest. For their final game of a dismal season. It does not bode well.I'm sure that is true. Nonetheless, revenues have fallen considerably. The very fact that they actually cancelled a game is...let's say difficult to rationalize meaningfully. Attendance, viewership, cable deals...they all make up their profits. It will probably survive, but they have peaked as a business commodity.
No game was cancelled. All of the teams will play. There will not be a Sunday night game, but all of the games will be played.
I agree that the NFL has probably peaked, and may now decline.
I have never had an interest in football. I've seen the numbers, and they are not good. It would be like betting on Hillary after seeing one of her crowds.
