Probably as much to do with age but I am not as interested as I used to be. I got pretty excited about having games to watch last weekend but after flipping between them for about an hour I was bored and went out to the shop and tinkered around all day. Just not interested.
I will watch UGA but I am not as invested as I was even 5 years ago. When Tua ripped our heart out and stomped on it with a hobnailed boot I didn't even react....other than to say "thats that....great season". My wife and son were astonished....they have seen me lose my mind when we were playing Middle Tennessee State or someone similar and they scored or something. I get the feeling I am not alone in this. I think the playoffs and the rendering of bowl season as obviously irrelevant instead of just irrelevant is going to make it that much worse. Ticket sells have dropped across the country with of course the exception of programs who may be contenders. I think the political issues being introduced will drive even more people away. When you think about it football is about the lone survivor of things that haven't changed significantly since the old days that is able to attract folks. Considering most kids can't be beaten and forced out of the house and it has been that way for some time now its amazing there is as much interest as there is....
