a regular season NFL game. I just lack interest in it anymore.

Still likes me CFB on Saturday though.

Anyone else lost or losing interest?

        We need a separate thread on EPL. Unlike NFL, EPL is not franchised, which makes it similar to CFB Eli 6:04pm · 10/24/16
        
        I like the continuous play. No time outs except injury stoppage. No break except halftime. Frank L 7:29pm · 10/24/16

        Australian rules football isn't bad, same with rugby, but NFL still slightly better. CFB is by far THEISMANCARR 7:56pm · 10/24/16
