[QUOTE="researchfrog, post: 2921231, member: 5196"] I'm going to my nephew's 4th bday party instead of the OU game. Honestly, I don't care that I'll miss it. I'll catch up when I get home and try to enjoy what remains of the game. As a fan, I'm beat down. I've been a fan for thirty years, an alum for almost 20, and a season ticket holder for 8. 1. In-person attendance is a minimum 5-6 hour time committment, with inconvenient parking and/or traffic, overpriced food and drinks, far too often in the hot sun, an undisciplined offense tripping over their own dicks, and a defense that takes several games to jell year after year. 2. The whole team hasn't consistently been fun to watch since 2015. Even when Kenny took us to 11 wins, it was more nerve-wracking than fun. 3. Watching CGP shuffle coaching deck chairs every year instead of making decisive moves really brings me down as a fan. It screams lack of vision or commitment. I hate to say it, but I don't worry much about coaches getting canned in the middle of a season when they consistently make in the six figures.It's nice to have a blue collar mentality, but actual coaches aren't blue collar. They are highly paid professionals whose only job is to produce and it seems like we're stuck in a late-stage Bowden slide into the irrelevance of starsy players with coaches whose only worth is to bring in moderately high ranked players.
