I can kinda relate, but I think for me it's more about me just getting older and the game becoming less serious to me. I told Hostile at the other place recently that with each passing year I get better at placing the journey over the destination. After all, that's what it's really about...the watching experience throughout preseason, through the regular season, and if your lucky, some turn-of-the-year football to bring in the new year. If you are destination-centric, you will be miserable more often than not regardless of who you follow.
That said, this season is really interesting to me because a full-blown changing of the guard has been exercised in the last 3 years. No more Romo, Witten, Dez, Scandrick, etc. This upcoming year we may also see a complete and radical change in how this offense moves the ball. With Garrett and company's job depending on it, I think they are going to be very creative and we are going to see something very different from what we have seen over the past 10 years. For me, that's exciting. It may not be good enough to make the playoffs, but my guess is it will at the very least be entertaining.
