Good job Patriot fans.

Hartford is NY anyway so, f em. But, way to go Pats Nation.

Thank you my homies! As a Boston native living in NC, I knew y'all would take care of business. My guess is the 37 viewers in Boston market who watched were BU students from New Jersey and New York.

Well it seems i was wrong the word did get out to enough fans not to watch the first round, good work.

 

[BelichicksBlackEye]

Fantastic news!!!

I'm glad to hear that the numbers were down last night. I love to watch the draft and never miss it, but I didn't watch one second last night and it looks like lots of other people did the same. Well done Pats fans.

In 2015, Boston did a 3.7 rating for ESPN's coverage of Day 1 of the NFL Draft


From 3.7 last year to a 1.5. Good stuff.

 

[sportnik]

FU Goodell. Wait to you see the ratings for the games that Brady is suspended. There are 2 prime time games that will get killed in the ratings outside of NE.

 

[ReverendMaynard]

Yeah, this is nice, but chump change compared to the games. If we can get those ratings down to a third of normal, that might make some people take notice. It'll be far too late for this former fan, of course. Maybe folks that skip those games will realize they have better things to be doing and never go back.

Come on, Providence.

Otherwise, great job guys. I know the folks up in Boston were wicked pissed!

 

[Kontradiction]

I'm not watching the rest of it. Nor will I be following it through anything related to ESPN or the NFL. Any word on what the national ratings are? And can anyone do some quick math on how that affected them monetarily?

 

[JMC00]

Hartford is NY anyway so, f em. But, way to go Pats Nation.

Not really. It's more 50/50 than anything

 

[borisman]

Were all the strip clubs closed last night in Providence? WTF guys!!

Otherwise, great news. We DID make a difference.

Thanks for your hard work Ian.
