No matter what else was happening in your life or in the world, you could tune into a game and tune out of the world for 3 hours watching two teams compete on a level playing field. May the best team win.

Now? The "struggle for..." and the "fight against...." are brought up a fair amount. COVID restrictions on those not willing to get the shot border on insane. Rulings on the field that fly in the face of what you are seeing with your own eyes cheapen my enjoyment of the game. And, yeah, outside of the first two series last Sunday, our O-Line was just a train wreck.

Regardless of where the Colts franchise is, my overall desire to watch any NFL product is just a lot less than it was even a couple of years ago.
My interest in the NFL has waned a bit just for me getting older and having a kid which occupies what free time I used to have.

That said, I'm really not noticing anything very "woke" out there, at least from a tv perspective, and I still try to watch every Colts game I can.
