Is The NFL's Problem 'Poor Product', Not 'Disrespect'?
Authored by Doug French via The Mises Institute,
President Trump has lambasted the NFL more than 20 times for players’ “Total Disrespect of Our Great Country.”
Ratings are down for NFL games and Trump figures it’s because some players aren’t standing, hand over heart, and mouthing the words to the national anthem.
Trump may have made some political hay out of all this, but one only has to follow the money to learn the real reason pro football ratings are down - competition from college football.
