I know, I'm sad.

Why would they play in January? Is one of them moving to the opposing conference? Super Bowls are played in February.

Totally agree. If you're a fan, you should watch.

The goal of the last preseason game is to get the guys who are assured a roster spot out of the game as fast as possible. It is a game where mostly bubble players and players who will not be on the team after the weekend play. I don't think you are a fair weather fan if you ignore this game.

I personally have something going on after work and I have no intention of blowing it off just to watch this game.

I enjoy the preseason games because I like to look at the new players and see how they play. I don't take the score or results seriously. I do feel bad that fans have to play full price to attend the games but I also feel some number of them are a necessary evil. Teams complain about them but many teams have controlled scrimmages against other teams such as the Pats used to do with the Giants.

They are not something to agonize over unless the stars get injured, so I am ok with the starters sitting on the bench.

That should be the only reason not to watch. However, I may skip watching any pre-game show because we know what they'll talk about.
