NFL 2023-2024 Season

[SamCdbs]

The new TV contract has the NFL playing on Christmas unless it falls on a Tuesday or Wednesday. Because 24 is a leap year, it will skip Tuesday in the rotation, meaning only the 24 season will not have one (Christmas on Wednesday in 24). This kills the NBA, which is fine with me, I wouldn't watch it if they played it in the street in front of my building and gave out free popcorn. This also may change the nature of Christmas in some homes.

Of course, the announcement is only that the CBS game, announced months ago, will have a Nickelodeon simulcast. Nick will never be the sole source for a game.

I had other stuff going on so didn't watch, but lots of others did apparently.

Well, the Cowboys rule... Except in Super Bowls since Jimmy or Tom Landry's coaching and influence... (Jerry curse)

"Having received the blessing from his wife and three children, Jones purchased the Cowboys from H.R. “Bum” Bright for $140 million in February 1989. It was the largest deal ever for an NFL team at the time of purchase."

That's one helluva investment.

When it is now worth $5 Billion, it was a damn smart investment.

These sorts of articles bubble up from time to time. The thing is the NFL, unlike all the other sports, shares almost all of its revenue. The biggest source of revenue, by far, is TV, and, unlike all other sports, that is a national deal, share and share alike. The league also share ticket sales, has many national sponsorships that preclude individual team ones in conflict, and shares most forms of merch sales income. The differences between teams are relatively small. Preseason TV, radio, local sponsorships, some merch rights, and, the largest one, how much the local gentry was willing to bend over in building a stadium.

Are the Cowboys worth $5B? Probably. But so are the Browns, Lions, and every other team.

I agree. if they had 50 million. but it would be nice to push back at the Boujie out there. most Native Americans never cared about this nonsense.

Looks like the Raiders got the best Value at QB in the draft with Aidan O'Connell. in the 4th round pick 135.

The LAST Week of Pre Season NFL is upon us.

Cowboys trade a 4th round pick to the 9ers for Trey Lance.

 

[dfergie]

Wow, no faith in Cooper Rush?

We'll have to wait and see if Lance ends up being the #2 or #3 when its all said and done.

Cowboys in the Super Bowl again. in the pre season.

Thought that the Lions Game this Thursday would be on Amazon, but no, on Peacock, getting a little confusing what game is on where.

Same for College, Michigan on Peacock last week, on CBS/Paramount+ this week.
