Probably time I admit to myself I have more interest in the NFL than I do cfb. Which is weird, because I don't have an NFL team I'm invested in or root for. But I usually have the games on to pass the time.
I skipped the cfb conf. championships except the Big Ten (which I enjoyed) and some of the Big 12 and I don't really regret it.
I think the reason is probably because I view the NFL as more honest. It knows what it is and doesn't pretend to be anything else. cfb died and now some sports-zombie is walking around wearing its skin-suit. Essentially, I feel like the sport just lies to me the entire time it's on my tv and I'm increasingly inclined to ignore it if for nothing more than stubbornness and obstinance.
Maybe I'll develop an actual fandom for an NFL team someday, but at the moment I find it more entertaining than ever to watch, just to see individual players I like and to see how it all plays out. I know the rules before the season starts. No wondering what some committee will do and if teams will stop scheduling good ooc games and all the arguments about who beat who and who deserves to be in.
