I'm still doing better than the Ravens' beat reporter for The Baltimore Sun
There are a few reasons for enjoyment, or lack thereof, in regards to making picks. How well your favorite team is doing, along with how well you are doing with your picks are big factors.
Another may be fatigue. At least it is for me. In the old days, we had Sunday's to read the paper, browse the web, watch a good pregame show on ESPN, and then make our picks. And then came TNF on occasion. Now it's every week but the final few. Oh, let's not forget the handful of early Sunday European games.
I was in a couple of FF leagues in the '00s. As was my wife. They were fun. After two years, I dropped out of one. With all the Thursday games, I'm glad I did.
I'm much older now, so that may be a factor for me. Hell, I'm so old that I can remember the title game taking place before the New Year's bowl games. And later on, the Super Bowl being played in mid January in the sunshine! Now it's the weekend before Valentine's Day. Before I start yelling for someone to get off of my yard.....
