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 +

      Panthers to work out UFL OPOY Hakeem Butler

      By Prowler2k18 · Posted

      Another source: NFL Rumors: Hakeem Butler to Visit Panthers After UFL Success, Wade Phillips' Praise ZACH BACHAR JUNE 10, 2024 The Carolina Panthers are expected to conduct a workout with UFL wide receiver Hakeem Butler, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Butler recorded a league-leading 652 receiving yards as a member of the St. Louis Battlehawks. He was previously a fourth-round draft pick by the Arizona Cardinals in 2019. After the Battlehawks were defeated by the San Antonio Brahmas in the XFL Conference title game, Brahmas head coach and longtime NFL coach Wade Phillips told the receiver that "I'm going to tell everybody in the NFL that I talk to that you need to be playing," via Michael David Smith of Pro Football Talk. Despite the loss by St. Louis, Butler still hauled in six receptions for a team-high 59 receiving yards. The 28-year-old was named the 2024 UFL Offensive Player of the Year, as he was one of only two wideouts to have multiple games with at least 100 receiving yards. While the Panthers added Diontae Johnson and first-round rookie Xavier Legette to their wide receiver room in the offseason, they could still use some depth in the form of Butler. Carolina isn't opposed to picking up former UFL players, as Rapoport revealed on Thursday that the team is also "expected" to sign All-UFL receiver Daewood Davis. Although Butler was selected by the Cardinals in the 2019 draft, he did not play as a rookie due to a hand injury and only appeared in two regular-season games as a member of the Philadelphia Eagles in 2020. He did not record a catch. Butler signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers during the 2023 offseason, although he ultimately didn't make the team's regular-season roster. At 6'5", he has the frame to potentially make an impact in training camp and earn a shot at making Carolina's 53-man roster. If his workout goes well with the Panthers, Butler could give himself another chance to possibly return to the NFL.

      They have all the rookies. The DC game has Ron though. With the new QB. It is weird.  pantherclaw, Bryce sort of is what he is, and in Madden he makes throws the real Bryce can’t make. Here and there. He ain’t ain’t a top QB in Madden though, lots of picks. aone of them lol was the throw that scares the hell out of me when he throws it, out to the boundary... quack quack.
