LIJetsFan Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 Someone mentioned YT. There is one guy well worth checking out, Buffalo Jets Fan. Take my word for it. BTW I do watch a bunch of TY and pay the $13/month to go add free. Other than Netflix and Amazon Prime this is my only other subscription.

If you click on it, they want you to pony up $7/month for the privilege of reading about their sport that you already support in any number of ways. So, more or less, they want us to further subsidize $50M/year QBs.

UntouchableCrew Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 Honestly if NFL+ had the NFL Films Team Yearbooks available on demand I'd subscribe tomorrow. I used to special order those things on DVD -- I still have 1998, 2000, 2002, and 2004. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players do not need to earn historic amounts of money every single year. Major league sports are a drain on the middle-lower classes. They have 0 competition to force them to adjust prices. Shame. Society’s boned. As long as owners and league keep making more money, the players should too. So I definitely don't blame the players. The folks paying for it are to blame. Right or wrong, it's a matter of opinion. Capitalism at its finest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warfish Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 On 6/21/2024 at 5:26 PM, nycdan said: Any incremental dollar they get from it probably comes at a cost of several times that in lost exposure to more eyeballs. It's their decision to make. I just happen to think its idiotic, verging on brain-dead. What makes you think that NFL Fans are abandoning the NFL over an issue like this? I think your interpretation is flawed. Incremental revenue > incremental cost of lost future revenue because of the time value of money (1) and because fans are not quitting being NFL Fans (i.e. quitting consuming other free or cost NFL products) over an article behind a paywall. Proof? No one here on JN who is butthurt about it is quitting JN, quitting the Jets or quitting the NFL. 100% of butthurt people are remaining to spend elsewhere on NFL product. And frankly many of the butthurt already weren't paying in much to start with, cheap people are cheap. So there is no meaningful loss. Only the incremental gain. In the short run, the long run admittedly could be different, but lets be honest, the NFL lost vastly more consumers of their product over kneeling for the anthem than they ever will about an optional offseason article behind a paywall in a time when almost all media is moving behind login walls or pay walls as well.
