A bit sad, but not surprising. It was always something that felt forced and only propped up by companies trying to create a new market in order to monopolize it.
If the NFL didn't exist, then suddenly just sprung on the public as it exists now, I think it would have also suffered a similar fate.
On the player and even team level, I'm sure it felt different, but as a spectator, it was hard to ignore the top down, corporate, ad filled, "fellow kids" feel of the thing.
