After watching since the 50’s I stopped watching when the Broncos last won the Super Bowl. The game itself has become uninteresting for multiple reasons in no particular order:

The players are constantly looking for self-aggrandizing kill-shot plays instead of team play. I get the feeling more air-time is spent celebrating than playing.
Too many commercials and game interruptions.
Way too much referee air-time. It’s a referees’ game now, not a players’ game. Too many explanations, replays, penalties etc. 3+ hours with 10 minutes of actual football is a bad joke.
Free agency sucked from the get-go and still does.

There are too many more entertaining ways to spend 3 hours than watching big steroid-enhanced guys running into each other and celebrating every tackle like they did something fantastic.

That’s a long-winded way to say pro football is boring now. If people still find it enjoyable, by all means watch it, nothing wrong with that. That means less people in the parks and on the roadways.
