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 +

    • I think people forget that by his last season Steve Smith had the ass and he played like it - and for no really good reason other than that other stars were emerging on the team and he didn't want to share the spot light.  He was more of a locker room distraction than he was worth. He went on to have great performances with the Ravens' but G-man made the right move allowing him to move on from here.  I personally think it was addition by subtraction and we don't have a super bowl run with Smith on the roster. Steve Smith remains a narcissist who I've never seen internalize his own culpability when it comes to his relationships with others - it's always somebody else's fault as to why he was forced to act like an asshole. This video is a product ad.  I'm cringed that either of these two Panther greats are party to it.
    • I think the ‘issue’ here is that we had two guys that clashed for several reasons. In some ways they were different, but in other ways they had a lot in common, and sadly they couldn’t see the forest for the trees. Sometimes when you have two people like that together they are either going to love or hate each other, and if it’s the latter, you need someone to mediate and hope the two individuals are capable of putting their differences aside for the common good. In this instance, they couldn’t find a way to move forwards together because I don’t think either guy wanted to play second fiddle to the other. This video basically said neither guy had the tools to bridge that gap and mend that fence, and perhaps also were unwilling to give an inch at that stage in their lives and careers. So a divorce, while unfortunate, was always likely. Do we win the Super Bowl with Smitty and Cam? Well, it’s one of life’s big what ifs for us Panthers fans.
    • Dude, I think I might be having Jarvy withdrawals... I ripped the sleeves off of all of my t-shirts in my sleep last night. Every bite of my Alpha-Bita cereal spelled Seth, this morning. And, I took 7 naps before lunch. I'm losing it guys! Jarvy's Jaunty Band of Jaggoffs are getting more play than he is... smh Team Canada doesn't treasure Jarvis the way he deserves. He should take his band down to Liechtenstein, get a bag of passports, and start his own Olympic team! The raw animal magnetism of Jarvilicious will bring in a handful of NHLers on its own. And, since the IOC believes in collective punishment, he could have his pick of the rookies. Then, just fill out the rest of the roster with the maple blooded great white northerners who couldn't make the top squad. Can't trust this assembled awesomery to just any old Liechtensteinien with a clipboard and a whistle. Gotta bring in a legend worthy of this gold medal gambit. A hockey HOFer with the balls to buck the system and the aura to match our maverick. Huere geil, Vaduz!!! 2030 Gold Medal guaranteed!
