I've pretty much given up watching NFL football and pro baseball. I much more enjoy college football; less on and off field "drama".
The downside to college football: there are too many bowl games and the conference changes to keep up with, ie Big 10 is now the Big 18, SEC now includes mid west and southwest teams, the PAC 12 is now the PAC 2 until the '26-'27 season, the ACC now includes Pacific Coast teams, Ivy league still has 8 teams (however I don't remember offhand having seen an Ivy League game). The AAC, around this family of Vets, the only games that matter are: Army-Navy, Army-Air Force, Navy-Air Force. With Air Force being in the Mountain West Conference.
