Schedule release and teams' social media

[Mr. Scot]

Heck, when I was a kid, even the draft wasn't such a huge deal (certainly not like it is now).

The NFL has learned how to market everything as if you've just gotta see it!

Kudos to the ladies that run the Panthers social media, though. They make everything fun

College athletic departments learned this long ago.  Make everything a big production with fanfare, announcing the schedule and revealing the season wallpaper to download, posters, and fan days are all part of marketing and generating excitement to purchase merchandise and attend or watch the games.

Took the nfl long enough to realize that women also wanted to buy jerseys, hats and have our own “woman cave” that wasn’t pink and frilly. 
 

Not surprised that it’s women that know what sells.

Honest question? Is the schedule release really interesting to most? I can't say I look more than a few games in advance during the season. 

I don’t ordinarily care. I do this year solely because I plan to take my boys to the game in Houston, as we currently live in San Antonio.

If a fan travels to Charlotte and staying overnight or if people are flying down for a game, it matters
