You're not proving anything by showing some sparsely filled stadiums which can be shown in any particular year for any particular team. Fact is ticket sales are up this year, if they go down next year then you can make an argument that its all because of the boycott of conservative crackpots, but that's not a legitimate argument right now. Keep hope alive though!
    well JimL, MY boycott has been going on for 56 years now. I have never been to an NFL game. But your own article said that stadium attendance was down because of the boycott and the only reason the numbers are still being reported as the same is because they count ticket distribution not use. So people who already bought their season tickets but are not using them in protest. It's in your own article and I even post a screen grab of it. yet you keep pretending that you supplied a source that says differently. Do you really think we are as blind as you are? We can read, which apparently you can do to since you post here but don't apparently read enough. Just far enough to read a headline that you think says what you want. But it didn't.

      Yeah, I get the point. Apparently you don't get mine.

        You seem incredibly inept at actually making points, Jimmy, and then you mock others because they don't get it.

        When called on it, you just say something really stupid like "I'll just let your head explode. That's not debate, that's jackassery.
        The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

                    yeah but the way it is now you are making JimL look clever by attributing "That's not debate, that's jackassery." to his quoted words.

                        Zym got your point just fine. He also understands that your point is entirely without merit, as it is refuted by the very evidence you provided.

                          You may be able to read, you just have trouble comprehending. The article didn't say attendance is down because of boycotting. You're reading into the article what you want it to say. Ticket sales are up and attendance is down in some stadiums. It also specifically says that there is no evidence that attendance is down due to boycotting.Guess you missed that part. You'll have to wait until next year to see if that is the case. Keep hope alive!

                            No it isn't refuted, apparently you are as bad at reading comprehension as is Sparko and the gang.

                                Which tells you that attendance is down in California Sparko. I already explained to you that attendance can be shown to be down in any particular stadium in any particular year for any particular reason. Thats always the case.
