I think it is age and life for a lot of people. When I was younger, I never missed a game.
Now, when I get home, I have dinner, play with the kid and get her to bed, do chores, maybe chat with the wife for a bit, and the nights done.
The hour I have left to relax before bed, I have no interest in watching sports.
I'm happy to read about it online the next day.

It would be nice if hockey came back, but whatever.

maybe hold off, hope vaccinations start by the spring, and try for a start in May where you might have some fans in attendance, and healthy players.

look at the NFL. it's a joke right now.
I don't even know what they're doing with covid. for two teams, they're willing to keep delaying the game (ravens, steelers)
but for another team (Denver, who had NO quarterbacks), they wouldn't even delay one day.
so slapdash, it's hard to call the season legit some days.
