There are just far more entertainment options than there were a decade ago. The internet, Netflix, DVR recording, MMA, NASCAR, expansion of cable broadcasting....there are just so many more entertainment options on a couch on a boring sunday afternoon than watch an NBA game compared to 2000 or 1990.

For me MMA has taken a huge chunk out of my NBA watching time. Straight up honest-to-goodness fights with completely unbiased refs and athletes working their asses off for the next fight and the next paycheck...is there a bigger contrast in how two pro athlete sports are run than the NBA and MMA?

I still watch the Blazers, but if they had another 21 win season I'm not sure I still would. Probably....maybe....
