Why have I lost interest in baseball?

Life long Braves fan and for some unexplained reason I just don't enjoy baseball like I used to. For about 20+ years I'd watch 90% of all Braves games.

Now I just don't care much anymore. Maybe it was the Red Sox/ Yankees saturation on sports media? Maybe its all the new faces every year? Maybe its the constant over-analysis of every single play on the field? I can't point to one thing.

Has this happened to anyone else?

It also happened to me with the NBA shortly after Jordan retired. But that was because I just got tired of the me-me in your face tatooed thugs being force fed marketed to me, and the Olympic teams trash talking, chest beating and screaming in the face of some 5'11" Chinese player they just did a 360 slam dunk over. I actually started pulling against the US Olympic basketball team.
