Super Bowl posts worst viewer ratings since 2007

carolinakid · 02-09-21, 04:11 PM

it was a boring game, a crappy halftime and a buildup that did not even get started on the field

thetrinity · 02-09-21, 04:24 PM

no parties + awful halftime show = low ratings

all the ones who didnt care didnt watch

carolinakid · 02-09-21, 04:27 PM

^ yes and the game just did not go with all the build up and as the score got larger more and more people turn it off imo pro sports in america are just not as great as they use to be too

The ratings should have been worse. I don’t know of anyone other than die hards who watched it. The casual fan did not care.

My local cigar bar turned off the pregame stuff as soon as Biden popped up lol

Then, even w TB winning, w 5 mins left switched to tennis lol

carolinakid · 02-09-21, 07:44 PM

i turn on sometime in the early pregame and they was talking about all the black qbs from day 1 i think and i turn it to a old 80 show

You had 500,000 less viewers this year due to covid deaths compared to last year. And about 40 million more unemployed living on government stimulus checks that have cut the cord with cable since last year.

carolinakid · 02-09-21, 08:08 PM

you did not need cable to watch this, it was on cbs, but pro sports as a whole in america is just not as good now as in past, too much crap like blm has hurt it big time and people are sick of this on and on every big game now.

MinnesotaFats · 02-09-21, 08:11 PM

It'll be interesting how much free air time CBS owes to advertisers for missing on the ratings here.

Emily_Haines · 02-09-21, 08:11 PM

I turn the shit off after that half time show

carolinakid · 02-09-21, 08:14 PM

yes the halftime show was sad to say the least

pablo222 · 02-09-21, 08:15 PM

Millions of Americans were busy watching Mike Lindells Documentary

carolinakid · 02-09-21, 08:17 PM

i had the 1st half under and that was it, the 2nd half i was watching other tv shows

carolinakid · 02-09-21, 08:18 PM

pro sports in america today, if you dont have a bet going are almost unwatchable....

Kermit · 02-09-21, 08:21 PM

How can they determine ratings in the age of the internet? I know 5 people that streamed it just like I did.

Kermit · 02-09-21, 08:22 PM

The only sport that isn't losing viewers, is the UFC. Which coincidentally is the only sport that hasn't gone all woke and catered to the Social Justice Warriors.

carolinakid · 02-09-21, 08:31 PM

^^^^plus one you are 100%, heck i was watching the last 2 mins of the duke game today and you know on the back of their jerseys the word EQUALITY.people are tired of seeing this on every sport game today.

Hman · 02-09-21, 08:32 PM

It has been reported the entire season was down 7-10%

Emily_Haines · 02-09-21, 08:55 PM

I should have turned it off when they put the fake doctor and Pedo Joe on the big screen.

lonegambler23 · 02-09-21, 09:10 PM

good enough of their fukking race talk

Unrivaled · 02-09-21, 09:14 PM

Turns out when you lock people in their homes and not allowed to party, superbowl viewings go down.

💯 This

Hockey the only thing I can watch without a bet. It's sad. And I actually like romo and nantz more than most of the others so it wasn't their fault.

The Mlb-Pa told biden no, regarding delaying the season so 100% of the players could be inoculated.
Maybe that will help Mlb this year with their ratings

With internet and digital streaming it’s actually easier to track so you will see how shitty ratings are across all leagues soon enough. People want their sports to be sports, not this political shit.

pologq · 02-10-21, 06:29 AM

way too many other things to watch now so when a game is boring you just flick the channel

i also think a lot of people are bored with brady winning.

garygroundwork · 02-11-21, 06:08 AM

Shit game ruined by flags and refs when it was in the balance
Shit entertainment
