I always look forward to the next season....our prospects are very good.

But even if they weren't.....6 months till the next NFL game is way too long.

 

Longest off-season in  pro sports

NBA baby. NBA.

Watch past NFL games then and do analysis on them for the offseason.

No live games until August...was CR 91's point ......I agree

[-JJ-]

For me I'm not in to other sports. Years ago I liked baseball but that got ruined by free agency.

 

No football is kinda like a vacation for me..like taking a break. To have it year'round...well what's that ol' saying..."being away makes the heart grow fonder". 

[Synthetic]

 

NBA playoffs are coming up in the following months and we also have March Madness....but I miss football too, starting around August is when I go into the frenzy. 

[21isSuperman]

There's the NBA, NHL, March Madness will be coming up soon.  Plenty to keep sports fans occupied.

[Hamboning Will Save URLife]

I know... the Patriots won the S.B.. Super Sad Day.

[chad72]

Now, which college university teams are called Patriots for causing a ruckus in March Madness? Is it George Mason?

[Gramz]

Last year's off season was very pleasant for me...  Peyton''s team  had just won the SB, and he had decided to retire and go out on top...and most of the Pats fans went into hiding...   ahhh the memories.

Ha,  right, however, & without trying to put words into CR 91's mouth, there are a few other reasons why Monday morning could've been considered a sad day!

Both Peyton and Lebron won, made my off season for me. I could live with the Colts at 8-8 last year through the off season because of that, however this year I am more bitter about the 8-8, that is a discussion for another day.

It's the time of year for optimism that the team will improve. Every draft pick is s highlight reel that is going to be awesome and every FA is the perfect compliment to what we need. Then reality sets in....time goes on the high wears off and we start picking everything apart...the negative Nancy's take over the board and we have to wait like 4 months to find out the truth. But March/April should be awesome flurry of activity and hope.

I at least have Baseball. I have been a Cubs fan for over 30 years and they finally won. Basketball and Football didn't play out like I would like, not a LeBron fan and the Pats winning = Boooooooo.

NBA is so boring....poor play and let's be honest...none of it means anything because we are just wasting time until Cleveland plays GS. I mean the league is a bunch of cry babies and spoiled brats. Lebrun crying because he only has 3 all stars on it...forgetting the fact he had JR Smith, Kyle Korver, Tristan Thompson, Richard Jefferson, and Channing Frye....I mean I probably missed a former all star somewhere. Then you have GS and the rediculous 4. So what are we waiting for...just cut to the chase...unless there are some major injuries we are just wasting time.

And with the Colts 1st pick of the 2017 NFL draft, the Indianapolis Colts select...

With me being up in the great white north, I dont have as much of an issue with the offseason. I get to enjoy all the fun of free agency and the draft, then shortly after I start to get my fix of football by watching the CFL, which starts up early June. That being said, by the time the NFL preseason comes around Im usually about fed up with the ridiculousness of the CFL and stop watching those games on TV (although every now and again I will go to one live)

[LJpalmbeacher2]

Na, not sad for me. It's the end of a Bad season for the colts and a end to a Bad season for the nfl.

MLB is coming up and looking forward to all the Yankee prospects we've gathered.

 

However, I don't think I'll like the end of the MLB season as I predict the red sox will win the world series over the cubs.

[coltsleafs]

Normally I would be very depressed football is over but not this year I've been wanting this season over for a long time was my least favorite season to date. Least I have hockey and the Leafs are actually watchable again which is rare lol
