Have rule changes affected your interest in a real way this season?

Spin-off of the "football is dying"
Have you seen a marked change in your viewing/attendance this season as a direct result of rule changes?
Watch/attend more?
Watch/attend the same?
Watch/attend less?

I haven't watched an entire NFL game this season.
The last rule change regarding personal fouls for just hitting too hard was the last straw.
I thought it would be harder to give up, but it was surprisingly easy.
I quit the NBA (except the playoffs) when they outlawed hand-checks and re-legalized the zone.
That was really, really easy.
I may have to start watching baseball, until they start outlawing double plays or pitching too fast.
I get the player safety arguments, I really do. . .but the safer game is just plain unappealing.
I used to cheer big hits. Now you watch the ref to see if it was too hard. It's absurd.

I haven't watched a full game all year. Just isn't appealing like you said.

Fantasy football degenerate, so no.
Cost of attending with the explosion of sports bars and Sunday Ticket have reduced my watching live.

I watch as much as ever, but I won't be having any football withdrawals when the season comes to an end.

The sport is just as appealing to me as it was before.

Watch/attend the same?

I haven't watched an entire NFL game this season.
I haven't noticed any difference whatsoever in the gameplay in the NFL, only the way it's called, not that isn't a big deal, but it really hasn't changed the way players play in any noticeable way.
