Almost all NFL teams have completely sold out all games. Tickets are only available from resellers. Trump's comments are not affecting ticket sales.

Sure they are. He made the NFL mad and they made even bigger fools of themselves in response, with even more protests. That caused ticket sales and TV viewership to tank and multi million dollar sponsors to drop them.
That got their attention and the protests have come to almost a complete stop. But ticket sales and viewership is still down.
Most NFL teams have sold out all home games before the season started so it's impossible for ticket sales to tank.

Not sure why that has to be explained.
"Impossible"? Hardly.
For those that had tickets available, sales are down.
But that's peanuts. The real money for the NFL is in TV coverage and that is quantifiable and certainly down.

Yes, you are.
No really, I'm totally puzzled.
But it doesnt look good with so may empty seats -
and in addition - when people do not come - concession sales will decreade
Now - the big question -
How will this affect the playoff games and the Super Bowl.
Will Advertisers insist that commericals be reduced from the 5 million dollars for a 30 second spot?
First you laugh at the idea that ticket sales haven't been hurt by Trump's attack on NFL players. In fact, ticket sales have not been hurt.
Now you are saying the money in TV coverage is down. That's not true either. They've sold out all commercial spots.
Or maybe you are saying TV coverage is down. That's not true either. All games scheduled to be broadcast are being broadcast.
I think what you are trying to say is that TV ratings are down. That might be true. Do you have a source proving this?

Aha! Yes, people that have bought tickets and don't go to the game and turn their tickets over to a third party to resell are not getting the high prices they usually get on the secondary market.

How many would you like? 15? 20?
I don't think it would matter. After all, it's not really happening.
Just one good one would be sufficient. Two would be excellent.How many would you like? 15? 20?

I would sincerely like to see the TV ratings showing the NFL ratings are down since Trump's Twitter rants. I went looking earlier in the week and couldn't find anything. So if you got something I'd like to see it.Can't help you . It's not happening. All sources are lying.

Over just one month of player, coach, and owner protests of the flag and National Anthem, the National Football League has gone from America's sport to the least liked of top professional and college sports, according to a new poll.
From the end of August to the end of September, the favorable ratings for the NFL have dropped from 57 percent to 44 percent, and it has the highest unfavorable rating – 40 percent – of any big sport, according to the Winston Group survey provided exclusively to Secrets.
Worse for football, which was already seeing lower TV ratings and empty stadium seats, the month of protests and complaints about them from President Trump drove core fans, men 34-54, away, the most significant indicator that NFL brass aren't in touch with their base.
The Winston Poll from the Washington-based Winston Group found that the attitude of those fans went from an August rating of 73 percent favorable and 19 percent unfavorable to 42 percent favorable and 47 percent unfavorable, a remarkable turn against the sport.
Shock poll: NFL now least liked sport, core fans down 31%

Has to be a lie. Nothing like denial.
Even an alt left site like Salon said Sunday Night football ratings were down after Trump tweet. Strange ITL can't find anything at all on it.
Nothing like denial.

Thanks Salty. Thing is, that article was written before Trump attacked NFL players for not standing for the national anthem. The point being argued is that Trump's attacks affected the ratings. Your article does not show that.
