I've never stopped watching for any particular reason other than losing interest.
NBA - Boring.
CFB - Shitty QB play. Games take forever. Too many bad players on the field.

What I gather in this thread....a shite ton of old white people

I'll watch a few CFB games every Saturday and a couple of USMNT soccer games a year. The older I get, the less I care about sports.

Kinda/sorta NBA. I used to watch the Magic religiously originally because of the LSU connection and continued following them with McGrady and Howard, but once the team started falling apart and becoming irrelevant I just quit caring.

NFL- I've just never been a huge fan due to trades and whatnot, but used to watch it regardless. I definitely prefer and have transitioned over to watching CFB because it's more about a city/state/region where the NFL is money based. It would probably peak my interests more if the Browns ever got good, but luckily my sundays should be free and clear for a long time. I have to admit I've watched quite a bit more this season than in years past due to Zeke. Not a cowboys fan at all, but I like seeing him play.

Completely overlooked this
CBB was at one point in life my favorite sport to watch. I watched hardly any last season and have yet to catch a game this season. It's hard to give a damn about a team when the players aren't there long enough to form any sort of attachment. Aaron Craft was the last person I cared about as far as tOSU BB is concerned. It's sad what the game has turned into, but you can't blame the athletes.

NFL - just find it pretty boring these days. To be fair I'm a Rams fans it is hard to get excited when your team has stunk for this long.
Aside from the Rams I can't remember the last time I've watched an NFL game

MLB. Lost interest about a decade ago and haven't watched more than 2-3 games at most since then. Dunno how I ever liked it TBH

NHL. The lockout in 04-05 coupled with the Capitals selling off their best players. Granted they reloaded with Ovi and the like (but haven't done shite). The lockout a few years later was the nail in the coffin. You gotta play the games for me to follow.

I haven't stopped watching any completely, but my interest has waned heavily in CFB. I watch all LSU games and occasionally other big matchups still, but not nearly as much as I used to. It is hard when there is no point. Bama is going to win 8 of the next 10, why even watch the sport? They need to do something to even the playing field because it is only going to keep getting worse.

This is definitely true for me.
I watch a lot of MLB... pretty much all LSU football games and a handful of LSU basketball and baseball games.
I watched bits and pieces of other games, but I don't think outside of LSU I watched any college football game start to finish. I'll probably watch the championship game as long as it's close.
I used to watch the Saints a lot more, but have found myself caring less and less about the NFL as I get older. I'm sure I'll still watch some of the playoffs and the Super Bowl.
I used to watch a lot of NBA growing up, but I just lost interest, and I don't follow it at all these days. Other than the headlines on here I would have no clue what's going on.
I also used to watch NASCAR from time to time... haven't done that in years.

quote:Marv Albert and Mike Fratello still call games.
I gave up on the NBA years ago when ESPN started cramming it down our throats. Was really good product when NBC had rights. Marc Albert and Mike Fratello calling Bulls/Knicks, Bulls/Pistons, Pacers/Knicks was as good as it got. Bob Costas and Pat Riley in the NBC studio. Then Julius Erving and Peter Vescey replaced Riley. NBC was willing to show multiple games at the same time. So the whole country wasn't stuck with one game. That awesome NBC intro music was downright beautiful and very catchy. Teams like the Suns and Magic wore badass alternate uniforms with creative logos, and boring script was less prominent. NBA Inside Stuff on Saturday mornings at 10:00 with Ahmad Rashad and Summer Sanders was quality TV. Game has become soft as hell. Very few or no rivalries. Players ignore mid range game. Offenses are just half court oriented. Players sitting out games and bitch about not getting enough rest, despite that never being a problem in the '80s and '90s. And now selling hideous ads on uniforms. So frick the NBA. Don't miss it at all.
Inside the NBA is way better than Bob Costas and Pat Riley.
NBA Inside Stuff still has new episodes that come on.
Offenses are not half-court oriented at all. That was the 90's. The pace was extremely slow in the 90's. The game is fast today.
You're just cranky.

College basketball outside of the tourney.
NBA basketball just ruined it for me. Amazing the drop off from Pro to college in basketball.

NFL- Can't breathe on the WR's. Ill defined Personal Fouls. Bounty-gate suspensions. General lack of aggression. Game is less football, more ultimate frisbee.
NCAA BB- One and dones killed it for me. No continuity at all.

NBA- haven't watched a game in a long time. it's boring as hell. the game of basketball has changed a lot since I was a kid and not for the better, imo. the game used to be a non contact sport where shooting accuracy was a premium. it was "ok" then but still pretty blase'.
NFL- I watch the playoffs and I watch a few Saints games a year (part of them anyway). it's getting as boring as basketball (for different reasons). college football still has a lot of excitement and to me is much more fun to watch.
