Honestly, the casual fan life is the way to go the older I get.

Early morning 3+ mi walk with the dog and wife, drop into one of our bakeries for pastries and tea. 

Meal prep for the week. I run to get fixings for the games and the other ingredients we’ll need to for upcoming dinners.

Come noon, I’ve got the quad box with 4 games. Redzone on the main screen with the audio. Helping with Sunday chores around halftime of both stretches. 

Have ~2 teams I’m pulling for. Panthers are in one of those quad boxes, and every week I’m peering towards it less and less.

a lot of fair weather fans here. Cheering when you are winning is easy, but cheering in difficult times is only for those who truly understand what it means to be a fan.
 

Everyone has the right to do what they want with their lives, but don't mix supporters with real fans.

Nothing Fair weather about it. 

They're still my favorite team. I want them to win. There's just no point in watching if we know what the outcome is going to be before the game even starts. The team as we once knew it has been completely dismantled, the best players we have ever had are no longer on the team, they have either retired, been released, or been traded away. It's looking like we will have the worst record in the NFL and we won't even get the #1 overall pick to show for it next season. That's embarrassing. The season is lost for the 6th straight year.

I'd rather spend my Sundays doing something that brings me actual joy.

Like watching a few episodes of Bluey.

I am currently 25 episodes into season 2 of Bluey. 
Honestly it feels like a daily seven minutes of therapy. 
Which is saying something about the show if a 38 year old adult finds a children’s show comforting. 

That said never understood people who say you have to blindly follow the team and watch every game or you are a bad fan because at the end of the day it is meant for entertainment and if it isn’t entertaining anymore what is the point.

Bruh, I went out on the high seas to watch the final part of season 3 that isn't on D+ yet. The very last episode, 'Cricket' is arguably the best episode of the entire series so far. 

They're all bangers in their own right. I like the damn show more than either of my kids, who seem to only like it because I love it.

Mums and Dads, Sleepytime, Sticky Gecco,  Trains, Show. Too many to count that are so good. 
I think I just watched my least favorite episode called “Movie”. Because Bingo was being a little terror and making a scene at the movies and would not calm down or obey Bandit and it ended with but strangely it ended with everyone in the theater applauding Bingo and Bluey because they “found themselves”. When in reality Bandit would have left the theater from embarrassment and Bingo would have been in trouble. I know from personal experience as a child. 
I appreciated the show for how it can realistically show the adults and the family dynamic. But this is the first episode where it feel like it is trying to justify bad behavior which I don’t agree with.

Still watching NFL football.. definitely like YouTube TV split game format.. able to watch a lot of games at once.. so Panthers will be on the split screen..this year feels like Clausen/Pike!! Even though Reich wasn’t fired today.. there’s still a chance.. when we lose to Titans next week.. heads could roll pending the score

Not watching football. I had been watching the Panthers and the other games every week depsite us being terrible. What did it for me was the news today that Cam hasn't even had a call about playing in 2 years. If the owners/GMs don't care about bringing in the best players for their team why on Earth should I care who wins the games?

I thought I was the only sap watching this. I have my grandson 5 days a week. He is 9 months old, I'm a Bluey fan. The only reason why I still have Disney +

    • LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.  Mock drafts 
    • Have you seen the mock drafts lately?   Most of them have us taking a QB. Just because you aren't high on these QBs doesn't mean the Panthers or other teams aren't.   If you want me to be real I just think you a Tmac homer and all you care about is us drafting him. It's why you get so defensive when people mention other prospects.   Be open to other people's ideas. Nobody in this thread is saying anything bad about your boy Tmac. 
    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
