Having said that, I could see the NFL's ratings continue to slide this season. Fuck Goodell. -
If people would rather watch the weather channel than football there is an issue
I don't think its political. I think its over saturation.
Off season is the best season for pro fans too these days -
My interest in the NFL drops dramatically when UW is actually playing well. I'll still watch Seattle, but hardly pay attention to the rest.RaceBannon said:If people would rather watch the weather channel than football there is an issue

You mean the rematch of a close Super Bowel featuring the reigning league MVP facing off with the reigning champs got more eyeballs than a game prominently featuring Alex Smith and Andy Reid?
Chinconceivable. -
A single football game has become torture to watch. Team kicks a field goal, network goes to commercial, kickoff, network goes to commercial, fuck off. I put up with that shit when I didn't know any better but I've had the redzone now and can't go back.
I'll watch a Thursday, Sunday night, Monday game if I have fantasy players going on both teams. Otherwise miss me with that shit. -
This also applies to college football to some degree.allpurpleallgold said:A single football game has become torture to watch.

College is worse. NFL games are done in 3 hours flat, college go 3 1/2 easy.TierbsHsotBoobs said:

same. I'm still excited for the Seahawks but this is probably the least I've been into the NFL ever.UWhuskytskeet said:

The huskies playing well is a factor, but the NFL product has just degraded and the competitive balance of the league is beginning to resemble the NBA. So many bad teams.

All the rule changes have made it a qb league. You have Tom Brady or Aaron Rodgers and you're good forever. If you can't find a qb you're the Browns forever.dhdawg said:

The biggest problem with this is they turn all their qbs into robots with the media. The NBA is growing with no competitive balance (although the Warriors are looking to change that) because it's stars are allowed to have personality. Every interview with every qb sounds exactly the same and the second one does anything controversial he's blackballed out of the league. -
My interest is at an all time low. Large percentage of that is caring less and less about the Redskins, but I almost quit fantasy and spent zero time draft prepping this year.
If the Redskins make a real run at Owen 16 I may be interested in that.
