Ok Raptors fam here…are we having trouble keeping a conversation going because it’s midsummer or because we’re not getting reason to hope for an interesting season ahead?
Personally, I’m seriously wondering if there’s any point to keeping our SN and TSN subscriptions.
Will I really be willing to invest my viewing time in a season that promises to be no better than last and without the exciting of seeing a crop of new players develop? Seriously, a couple of seasons ago I was more invested in watching Banton and the others in 905 games. I just feel weary thinking about taking in the main team in the fall.
How are others feeling?
Just not enough to talk about. New coaching staff will provide changes but nothing we can see until the season starts. Players are the same as last year, minus the obvious. It’s just “wait and see what happens” right now. Plus it seems like lots of the teams around us are getting better while we are just kinda meandering so it’s not an exciting time until we have something to peek our interest.
The question is whether there’s any realistic expectation of something ahead that will peak interest…
As you said,
This seems like exactly the opposite to a strategy to reengage fans.
