You are arguing in the abstract, of which no one disagree. We are saying that there are APPROPRIATE venues to exercise one's Constitutional rights. Retreating into the abstract means you have no credible rebuttals to being reasonable.

Lou Dobbs swore up and down Week-4 ratings will tank, but now that the opposite happened we suddenly have to wait till the end of the season
LOL..telling the other person they don't know and in the very next sentence saying you do ?

There's a word to describe what you just did.

I watched the Dolphins game on FOX, and they aired it, and they aired God Save the Queen as well. Typically none of the stations air it. They started airing it after Trump made his SOB comments.

Football ain't going anywhere.

I provided actual ratings which disprove all the predictions about the tanking ratings, and saying people still like football is a fact.

You provided one week's ratings. And that gives you the right to predict the rest of the season ?

Their ratings have been slowly going down for years, you have picked out a single week that was preceded by non stop coverage in the press.

Their ratings will take a much higher hit over the coming weeks as people that typically watch football choose to turn it off because of the action of the NFL and the players. In no way will those numbers be made up by people that are suddenly football fans.

He is wrong anyway. Every article says the ratings were down

I'll leave you with your predictions game. I said people still like football. Feel free to disagree. Who could possible care less.
