Just picture Rob Schneider on The Waterboy yelling "Oh no, we suck!" That's how I feel these days watching Saints games. I have just checked out. I watch the games but I no longer let it affect my blood pressure. In fact, while the team has been doing so terribly I have actually cut back on my drinking. I know it seems like I am going against the natural order of watching your team lose.

Actually, not expecting them to win kind of takes a lot of stress off. Either I'm happily surprised or got what I expected.

I kind of checked out after about the 5th loss in a row before DA got fired. I cared and wanted them to win, but my expectations were low.

Towards the end I just wanted to see the young QBs have a shot and see what they had. I didn’t expect them to win anything.

Hell I forgot to even check the score of the Bucs game until after it was over. I was outside working on taking down a fence and moving a shed.

I just wanted to be on record for saying, “thanks boys. As always I enjoyed watching each game. This season started off as a roller coaster. That was exciting far more lows than highs. Wound up being a bit of a parachute freefall, but we have endured worse seasons I will be back next year to watch every game.”

Like this year, I don't plan on watching much NFL next year. The constant social justice pandering and "gambling" have turned me off exponentially. To top it all off, Mickey Loomis has placed a turd in my Saints punchbowl.
I'm glad that you can still enjoy it. For me, it's like a good friend that has changed for the worse and isn't going to revert back to being the good friend he once was.
