Relative to past performance? Yes, they are failing. Viewers are fickle like that. Moreover, the NFL doesn't have product cycles like Apple. The NFL is an entertainment enterprise, and their performers have chosen to hijack the NFL owners stage to make a political statement. That, among other issues, is starting to hurt their advertising revenue.

Re: CBS earning estimates lowered based on NFL's "success"
Not just USN, but also the street. If analysts lowere earnings estimates based on loss of NFL add revenue, then that’s failing. Downgrades certainly aren’t a vote of confidence of success.
I should add the secondary ticket market is off, too. That’s a big nuthin burger for all the seat resellers. It also indicates future demand falling.

Re: CBS earning estimates lowered based on NFL's "success"
Lowered earnings is not failing and Apple is the perfect example. Clearly Apple wasn't failing when their YOY revenue fell for the first time, and their EBIT fell by 15%. Earnings estimates started to drop. Yet an investment in Apple at that time saw a return (excluding dividend) of 65%. If you bought at the bottom it was over 70%. Apple was not failing, or hell maybe it was, but the return on investment says otherwise.Mcl3 Hokie wrote:Not just USN, but also the street.

except the NFL is not apple, its revenue source is a fan base that goes to games or buys merchandise or watches them on tv. At this point all three of those are dropping dramatically and them meeting yesterday and not doing anything will only exacerbate that. The funniest part though is the players that are protesting cops being mean will end up with much smaller contracts as the revenue goes lower.... the rich dudes that own the teams are not going to eat the losses

Tell that to the people that end up losing their jobs over lower than expected ad revenue. I'm sure that's not winning in their book. Did I say that this would put them out of business? No, but it certainly is on the negative side of the ledger for them.

Re: CBS earning estimates lowered based on NFL's "success"
There is no difference between "not winning" and failing? Just because the NFL isn't failing doesn't mean there aren't issues. There is certainly an in between right? Their ratings are still #1, by far. If you want to advertise on television the most eyes are from the NFL. They make more from TV contracts than anyone else, with less games.Mcl3 Hokie wrote:Tell that to the people that end up losing their jobs over lower than expected ad revenue.

"Failing" is a lot more subjective than I thought. I assumed doubling up ratings with crappy games against MLB/NBA playoff games would not be failing. It's tough to be #1, but dwarfing revenue of all other leagues is not failing.
Finally, even with the ratings decline in the regular season last year, the salary cap went up in 2017, not down, which is a formula based on all revenue. Just to recap, last year the "failing" leagues revenue went up, not down. That's quite the failure.

Re: CBS earning estimates lowered based on NFL's
that is because it is based on the tv contracts that were signed before the ratings started going down. Thus why ESPN is having the issues it has and CBS has to lower earnings est. The tv contracts written by the networks were based on the ratings continuing to increase and thus they could price the ad buys higher. That is not happening so they have not been able to increase ad buys or even get all the advertising sold from what I have read. That is why both pro and college ball are going to have some cutting to do in the coming years as the tv contracts will not continue their upward trajectoryTheH2 wrote:Let me say this again. In 2017, the salary cap, which is a formula based on league revenue, increased by 7.7%. That's quite the downward trajectory.awesome guy wrote:LOL, come on. They have less viewers and more empty seats. You're full retard on this, they're on a downward trajectory and will continue till making changes. Guess will have to wait for The Atlantic to post an article saying so much as you seem to rely on memorization of articles instead of critical thinking to form arguments.TheH2 wrote:I agree, relative to last year.

Relative to past performance? Yes, they are failing.
In regards to Apple, it was the first annual decrease in revenue. So it wasn't just product cycle.HokieJoe wrote:Viewers are fickle like that. Moreover, the NFL doesn't have product cycles like Apple. The NFL is an entertainment enterprise, and their performers have chosen to hijack the NFL owners stage to make a political statement. That, among other issues, is starting to hurt their advertising revenue.
Saying that the NFL is failing is like saying Alabama is failing because they are beating opponents by less. The NFL is still #1, by far. Nothing is close to touching it.
