I cannot disagree more with this statement.
For example, a dopey golf game last weekend had more than 6 million viewers on Sunday because people are
starved for
any sporting event.
The NFL is going to set viewing records this Fall.

Universities and colleges across the country have begun dropping sports due to the pandemic. Now, Power 5 schools haven't announced they're dropping sports but several smaller schools have already begun that process.

If you're Jerry World, yeah, he depends on suite money, as do other owners across the league that own their own stadiums. But that revenue stream will be the last to disappear because unlike the upper decks, there's a certain amount of cachet attached to suites.
The NFL is already planning ways to replace the in-stadium revenue stream with advertising and the biggie, legalized gambling.
