I think you're right because the allure of football in general is waning for both really young boys playing it and young men watching it. ABC moving it to ESPN because they' were getting beat by wrestling with 18-34 men had to be a shocker and a sign of what might be coming.Yesteryear's mystique revolved around "Tex" Schramm, Tom Landry and Gil Brandt and the relentless way they built the Dallas Cowboys. Not to be forgotten were the larger-than-life personas like, Don Meredith, Bob Lilly and Roger Staubach.... and, who could forget the Ice Bowl?
While the modern mystique is grounded in the Jimmy Johnson era and the original triplets, make no mistake, this organization is branded by the Jones family. While they have created a vast and financially successful enterprise, they have failed miserably to recapture (with the exception of the Johnson period) the true mystique of the early Cowboys.
I can't help but feel with the current generation of Baby Boomers cross the Super Bowl Rainbow, America's Team will be no more.
With the advancement and success of video games, what's next? TV monitors are getting better, the home is now the entertainment battleground and that will only heat up with another streamer getting into the game.
The money in video games is outrageous hitting 180B globally and dwarfing the global film market and North American sports industry and will continue to widen the gap.
When do the numbers stop rebounding for the NFL. Are they giving the public reason to stay engaged or new fans to come into it? It's just me but they ruined the game for me when they reversed field and began to adopt the college offense. I like the college offense in college. Just like I used to like having the difference in the AFL and NFL.
My question is does a ceiling for the NFL and Dallas Cowboys exist?
