162 Games .....it's easy to stop paying attention, especially if your team is out of the playoff picture. It's just too many games to have many of them fall under the category of "must see TV".

When I was in HS and college, I couldn’t stop watching espn. Even liked the nba back then But I didn’t have 8,000 cable channels and online stuff and internet porn and etc etc. possible that young folks just aren’t into a QB sack or a buzzer beater like I was |

Sports leagues/teams used to squeeze fans that went to the games until they got too expensive for a lot of people, now they are squeezing them for staying home and watching on TV.
Look at the Royals, they got the most money by going to Bally Sports, now a big chunk of the fans can't even watch without switching to a certain cable provider. If it costs extra money or takes extra steps to watch a sport/team, casual fans will start to say F this.

Where I really see the drop off is when I talk sports with my students. Some like it, but most have only a casual interest or are just completely ambivalent about it. Baseball is due for a massive crash. Only 2 of my students can even watch the Rockies (we live in CO) and it’s because their parents are fans. |

I’ve often thought sports teams should offer Gen Z/Milennials preferred pricing. It’s their future customer base for the premium seating. Automakers know this. Sports teams are run by myopic idiots desperate for the next dollar. |
