I wont see many Chiefs games this season, unless I go to a sports bar, but that could be a good thing...

Like being a STH again, I certainly wouldn't get in to recurring bill to watch the current product. That being said, I'm local so I get the pleasure (!!!) of watching this if I'm not otherwise engaged. And with the poor play our Chiefs be headed for this year, getting into a game, maybe two, won't be very expensive. With the older one in college, I'm not sure if I'll not plan even more, or none at all.
But alas, your point is accurate, for those of us who grew up in the 70s and 80s, where the game is headed might be for a different group of fans. Even if some of the changes aren't 100% bad (concussion avoidance [if not too stupid]), many of them are totally dumb like the "we're only about scoring these days" rules. If this new way is all you know I guess it's fine, but like I said, if you grew up in the 70s/80s, you know the game has changed.
