I will say, it’s amazing how quickly we’ve become inured to officials ******* the sport over every week. I know for me, after every big play, I wait for the little flag icon to pop up in the corner of the screen before I get excited/pissed

downvote purely for using the word inured, which I was forced to google.

injuries and terrible, inconsistent officiating are ruining the sport

I haven't been able to watch Non Jets games for more than a few minutes at a time for a couple of years now. I just... don't care or enjoy the product. Plus, I don't drink much anymore and that has REALLY changed a few things... 
 
I also can't watch much TV anymore, specific shows that can keep my interest are few and far between. It's funny, I loved video games as a kid, and have rediscovered how much fun good RPGs can be. 
Whatchya playing now ?

I'll still watch Jets games, for now. It's been going on for a while now but today was just it for me. I simply cannot watch the terrible officiating anymore. 

For my entire life Sunday was NFL day. You watch football on Sunday. I just can't justify it anymore. The officiating is and has been so terrible for a long time now. The Jets make enough bad plays on their own yet the officials consistently pile on and add to the disaster. I can no longer justify spending my time watching a product that is so poorly officiated. There are so many other things I can invest my time into on Sundays. I don't watch the news or the weather for similar reasons. 

Y'all don't know me but this is a big thing for me. Don't know if a thread was appropriate but I felt the need to share. 

 

This is me about 5 years ago and my life is better for it

I'm done watching the NFL, but I will watch the Jets?  WHAT!!??  I get it that the Jets don't count as an NFL team, but....

So NFL games go on for 3 hours Thursday night, 3 hours Monday night and from 1PM -> Midnight on Sunday unless of course there is a stupid 9:30am Sunday game in which case is goes from 9:30am Sunday until about midnight.

If you only watch Jets games you watch 3 hours a week as opposed to 15-18 hours a week.

If you need me to break that down into UTC or ticks please let me know.
