The Portal and the absolute anarchy of the unrestricted, unregulated NIL Pay-For-Play game of college football is not something I'm interested in. It's not really a sport anymore if winning isn't the objective. And winning is NOT the objective of the players anymore. Their only objective is $$$. I don't care about my own fandom for Alabama anymore. I don't give two shits who wins the Alabama-Michigan Bowl game and have no plans to watch it or any of the playoff games. The thrill is gone.

There’s hope. You still care enough to melt.

Yet you’re all for capitalism if it favors you - one way street

We are here because Alabama is the welfare queen of CFB. Had you not begged and pleaded to be included in the post season when you didn't deserve it, we'd be in a better spot.

If not caring is melting then I'm guilty. I really don't care anymore. The reason I started this thread is because my cousin called me to talk about tonight's Tennessee - OSU game. I didn't watch or care about it. I really don't care about this new thing that is pretending to be college football. It's not interesting or compelling anymore. But - Hey that's just how I feel about it. I wish it was different.

My wife says she doesn’t care about stuff all the time. But then, shockingly, she DOES care! Can you believe that? She just gets all emotional and says things?

I suspect it is because she is a woman. And women are emotional and reactionary.

Are you a woman??

Nope - not a woman. Just a disillusioned former college football fan. It's not a sport anymore. With no rules its like wrestling and I never like wrestling.

eta - I don't care about this thread either. I won't post anymore replies to it or look at it again. I really don't care anymore. What used to be college football is no more.

It's suddenly not intersting anymore? Could it be because Deboner and the Gumps are sitting this 12 team playoff out? If they were in, you would love it until Ohio St spanked you like they just did Tenner. You Gumps will be back loving it as soon as Deboer can manage to win a big road game and squeeze into the playoffs.

The whole thing is anti-team concept but it is capitalism. Your hiring mercenaries. Get paid what market will bear for your goods and services and you’re free to move around and do it with any team. It’s really not good for the team/school bc it is individual based. I don’t like it but I get it. If I made $50,000 and got offered $200,000 for same job and hours - I’m gone.

I can’t support a team who is able to hoard talent indefinitely

Making a thread on a sports website during the night of playoff games is a weird way of not caring.

What is it about Alabama fans that has them throwing in the towel? It's like yall are 2-3 years behind everyone else. You missing the playoff wasn't the worst thing to happen to football. The portal isn't new anymore. NIL isn't really either.

People generally don’t go posting a topic they genuinely don’t care about.

To be clear, I am not happy with the direction of the sport, but I do care, that's why I'm not happy with the direction it is going towards.

Just a tip from an LSU fan…you’ve got a great basketball team. Learn to love another sport that isn’t as affected by the money.

You’ve lived a charmed life in football that none of us other fans have. I’m just here to help you adapt to what the rest of us had to,

I’ve been so much more invested in LSU baseball and Women’s basketball recently and it’s been cathartic
