[QUOTE="4shotB, post: 875125, member: 844"] Like most rational GT fans, my expectations have always been somewhat realistic. Like many others here, I am grabbling with the massive changes to the game and how it will impact my interest in it going forward. If I abandon ship, which is a possibilty, it will be because of the cumulative effect of all the changes to the structure of the game and not just our recent 5-6 year stretch of really bad football. As others have alluded to, if we are going to watch professional football, let's watch the best. I have never been to a minor league baseball game or a Korn Ferry golf tournament I have seen MLB games in 6-7 cities and a dozen or more PGA events. One possible turn of events that might keep me entertained is if there is a restructuring of the divisions so that teams with similar goals (and budgets) can compete on somewhat similar footing. BTW, these things don't effect only us bottom feeders. My brother is a Ohio State alum. My golfing buddy is a ND alum and has season tickets even though we are 9 hours away. They too are questioning where they are as fans going forward. BTW, the ND guy is supportive of deemphasizing FB at his school and joining the ranks of teams like NW, Duke, Vandy, Tech, etc. in a separate division. My brother understands that this isn't happening at his school any more than it would at Oklahoma or Alabama. Maybe the disenchmant is a function of age as we all fall in the 60 -70 year age group.
