THE NBA IS MORE POULAR THAN THE NFL.

Professional football is no longer viewed as America’s favorite sport as the NFL wanes in popularity due to the NFL players’ national anthem protests, according to a new poll.

Only 42 percent of men from ages 34-54 had a favorable opinion of the NFL during September, a 31-point decrease from the 73 percent who responded to the August poll.

The survey also noted that football has the highest unfavorable rating out of all major sports mentioned in the survey.

Another poll conducted toward the end of September showed that 34 percent of people were less likely to watch the NFL because of the national anthem protests.

Players of the NFL are to blame for the fall of the popularity since the protests started the ratings and attendance to the stadiums have dropped significantly.

The NBA has the most popular players and you can see that on their social media platforms. Lebron James at the top of the followers in his account on Twitter. The sports shows all they talk about now is nba compared to last year when all they mentioned was the NFL that is a good way to meassure the most popular game in the country.

Football has always been my favorite sport but this year the political battle really impacted me with all the protests and I’m enjoying more basketball and all the trades and player movements it is more interesting than ever.
