mines the same, but it's because i stopped really caring one way or the other a couple years ago.

watched the cowboys in the playoffs last year, but only watched a couple games all season.

Way down...probably won't even watch a single game this year - and maybe watched 3 last year...and that includes the Super Bowl.

And it has nothing to do with SJW shite. This declining interest has been a slow burn starting with the rules changes, basketball on grass, can't play defense, pitch and catch, bad officiating, terrible interpretation of the rules, what is a catch? Common sense out the window, trashy fans by and large. It's a terrible product.

The NFL sold out to the idea that high scoring offenses = excitement and will bring more fans...they started this concept around 2004 just like MLB sold out to the idea that home runs equal fans in the 90's.

The NFL ruined the game that we all knew and loved from the 80's.

Increasing. Love it.

They actually make an effort to give every team a chance, unlike CFB where Bama can't be stopped except for occasional flukes

Declining. Of course that may have to do with my Bucs sucking for so long since the SB win.

The MSB should stop watching instead of complaining on a daily basis about it. The NFL will still destroy CFB with or without you guys.

I always have been a NFC guy and I love watching games on fox. For whatever reason the games on cbs are boring and the announcers put me to sleep.

Staying the same. I'm interested but the more life gets in the way, the less I watch.

Whereas I put life on hold to watch college football.

About to take my four year old to his soccer game for the afternoon. Would never have agreed to this on a Saturday.

Declining. Flipped it on this morning before the Texans game and Bill Cowher was talking about Colin K, social issues, etc..etc..

I don't watch football for social commentary and politics. This is the reason I have quit watching ESPN Sportscenter and all of their talking head shows.

Let's put it this way

If NASCAR was on, I'd be watching it!

Same for me. The older I get, the less interest I have in it as a whole. Though, when I play Pick 'Em, I try to keep up but I'm getting lazy at that.

Big decline. I follow the scores and bet the NFL but I haven't sat and watched a whole game in 3 years outside of the playoffs.

Watching Pittsburgh and New Orleans because it is routine.

Can't say i'm totally enjoy watching. Something about NFL broadcasts esp on CBS make the game seem boring. Fantasy sports and betting are much more fun than actually watching.

Then again nothing beats Saturdays.
