I know a young gal who is a traveling speech therapist. got her Masters, makes 23$ an hour taxable and another 20 bucks an hour that isn't. Has full boat paid coverage, guaranteed 40 hours a week can and does work anywhere in the country she wants. only works with the older baby boomers stroke patients. She has a super nice 5th wheel saves 70% of her income and I can't remember her date for sure but will be retiring I think in her late 30's. She is lovin those baby boomers
might help you to get your stories straight..Prime time viewers are aging faster than all sports fans.
The study, conducted exclusively for SportsBusiness Journal by Magna Global, looked at live, regular-season game coverage of major sports across both broadcast and cable television in 2000, 2006 and 2016. It showed that while the median age of viewers of most sports, except the WTA, NBA and MLS, is aging faster than the overall U.S. population, it is doing so at a slower pace than prime-time TV.
Good stuff here. It's a generational thing. My generation grew up with the tube as the primary entertainment source, and it was strictly a one-way form of communications. Now, with video games, fantasy leagues, and the Internet, entertainment has become interactive across two or more communications streams at a time. Maybe the days of just watching entertainment, including sports, is going the way of sitting around the radio as a family, which replaced gathering around the piano, which replaced ...
I think that was supposed to be 'skewing', but content publishers are convince computers can do the work formerly done by human editors.
And I say this as a network administrator.
Yeah, my phone bill inched up just under $2 last month and TV went up $4 a little earlier this year.
It is following the demos; like sports, the only people who still watch cable are us old farts.
Direct TV, Cox Cable Internet connection, Verizon Cell Phone, ATT house/business phone, Health Insurance, Electricity bill, Gas bill, Geico boat-car-trucks-camper insurance, other insurance, every damn month they're going up a few dollars here and a few dollars there. Oh well life goes on.
Beats the alternative.

Maybe the sports organizations and their network / cable partners should hold a closed-door, no-holds-barred summit. This may be a problem that is beyond any one of them or any single sport-carrier pairing. Rent a secret lair for a long weekend and look at what young people enjoy, how their events differ from that, and what they can do collectively to incorporate desired features. It sounds like an entire form of entertainment is on the ropes
Who are the producers of these events? Who is in charge of production?
I was thinking the same thing, can Nascar afford another season of this? Basically next year the car will be the same, despite a few tweaks, i don't see the racing improving much, can Nascar endure another boring season without losing a host of sponsors and fans?
Diversity is fine and all, I don't think it would attract as many fans as some think. The lack of quality racing, cars you can't identify with, the loss of Dodge in the sport, vanilla drivers, and too many 1.5 mile tracks are the main reasons Nascar is tanking.
That's not going to be enough, a few new drivers isn't going to boost it, don't forget no Jr next year , so this will probably cancel it out.
It's hard to pass if you can't get close.Someone mentioned Global Rallycross was the fastest growing motorsport. These cars look stock and they beat and bang and shove like old time short trackers. They maybe get up to the astounding speed of 80mph That should say something. You want 200mph? Go get a Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat or a Cadillac CTS V , You can get close to 200 at Ford Chevy or Mercedes stores.All in V8 front engine rear drive cars Toyletotas are bogus cars in Nascar .They haven't made a fast car since the front engine Supra!! Sh!t can the aero crap and go back to cars based in reality and close racing.that is exciting most every lap. Fans will return.
