Am I The Only One?

Am I the only person who doesn't like college football, or even see what's so exciting about it?  I can understand if you played for a team, or if a family member did..even if you go to the school I can understand having school spirit.  But I do not get why people who have nothing to do with a school are so intrigued by it.  It's exciting, at times, but the playoff picture or lack there of sucks, and for the most part teams start new every year.  It isn't like the pros where teams are built around contracts and players that fit into patterns.  College is often about players going to the school that gives them the best chance to win, and make it to the pros.

I know people who root for Michigan who don't even live there.  How do you even come about rooting for these teams?  My guess is, if the team is good you go with it.  I bet a lot of college football fans are front runners.  

In local news, Citi Group, who paid a TON of money to the Mets, some 400 million I think for naming rights to their new stadium, is said to be having problems with money.  They've already been bailed out by the government once, and now they might need help again.  How sad is it to be a Mets fan these days.  The team can't close down the stretch, some of their great free agent signings should be in the senior citizen home, and now they might need a new ballpark sponsor...great.
