I’ve found that the more I don’t watch the easier it gets not to watch. And I was a long time NFL and NBA fan that spent thousands of dollars per year on game tickets and the league TV packages.
Just saw a clip of Obama asking Shaq who he’s going to vote for. If that clip is representative of an NBA game I’m surprised 4m+ stuck around.
