I’m a Rangers fan, no rangers logo is available.

Can you give specifics on this perversion which you speak? I'm genuinely curious when people say, "I used to love X, but it's changes so much I can't watch it now." But, they give no details on what has changed to make them dislike it.

For me, I was a lifelong and diehard Saints fan. I was also a Steelers fan back in the Terry Bradshaw VS cowboys days. I loved watching NFL.

Then the bounty gate happened, and that made me question NFL's allegiance to $$$ over sport. They were willing to sacrifice one program and one fanbase to save themselves from massive lawsuits (all teams had bounty programs).

Then the whole kneeling crap started, and that made me question NFL's allegiance to $$$ of nation. They chose to take divisive political actions over a neutral stance.

So, now, I just have no desire to watch the NFL because I truly feel the NFL has no desire for me to watch it.

But please, explain how baseball is perverted now.

No... it's always been baseball.

I would say that basketball used to be #2 and now I don't even follow the NBA and only marginally care about college.

Watched a good bit of NASCAR in the 2000s heyday, but probably can't nane more than 5 active drivers now.

Football has pretty much always been #2 or #3.

College football has always been my #1 sport. I am not as into it as I used to be, but it is still my #1.

My #2 has changed. Used to be MLB, but is now tennis. In general I watch a lot less and don't care as much about sports as I used to.

College basketball was awesome in the 90s and the nba had michael Jordan. How could basketball become unwatchable in the 90s? Just because the Knicks and heat played like goons?

Favorite sport flips between college football and NFL...and I usually can't tell you why. This year, I find myself enjoying NFL more.

Football, baseball, and basketball, pro and college. No more.

Golf, college and pro. Men and women.

Meh all sports have changed. I’m 36 now. I’ve been watching since I was a kid

If those sports didn’t change they’d be dying. Those changes keep things fresh

The sports with 80 and 160 odd game seasons have gradually faded in my life as I've grown older. Sports in general probably have less importance.

It's just hard to work, have a life, and keep up with so many games. Football is easier because of fewer games and almost always on weekends. Although millionaires acting like they are oppressed instead of wealthier than the top 1% sometimes makes me opt out of even that.
