I'd be considered an old school fan even though Im not old..Lol
I watch too be entertained regardless if they're favorites or a bottom tier team. I just don't subscribe to tank talk ever because you never know what will happen with players (AR this year is a perfect example).
If you're always looking towards next year what's the point of even watching. That's how I feel, to each their own though.
But It does kill me when I see folks talking tank and draft positioning in September after waiting almost an entire year (9 months basically) for it to come back...
I think some people won't admit it but they're in love with the soap opera of the NFL moreso than the games. Meaning they love draft talk and free agency and live more in a 'what if' fantasy Colts land. To each their own again.
