People had the game on.  Don't try to twist it into who was actually paying attention and who wasn't and do a bunch of mental gymnastics about post season, regular season, etc. 

Football is more popular than basketball.  And its not close.

My point was that if you are paying for advertising you want them to be paying attention.  So it is important to mental gymnastics if you are paying money to have your message heard.

Also for ages 12-24 (prime advertising eyes), NFL is number one, foliowed by Soccer and then Basketball.  For reference see work by Rich Luker.

Fine.  How do you prove that one audience was paying attention more than another?

You can't.  That's why I asked you for the numbers that you claimed proved my statement false. 

I don't mind someone disagreeing with me, but if someone suggests there are numbers to prove me wrong I want to at least be pointed in the right direction.

Ratings.  The ratings prove me right.  You just can't say "If you believe more people cared about the french fry bowl over IU/Butler you'd be mistaken," without providing proof...any proof...that shows you are right.  You are the one making assertions that go against the numbers.
