Wouldn't surprise me. It is easy to jump on a winning bandwagon and it is easy to jump off once the losing starts if you are not emotionally
invested. Different for us Bengals fans who had the 90's and know what losing is like and cannot help it, have to stay with our one team.
Travis is falling off as a player as well.

I don't see Taylor Swift much, but I can relate in the sense that for 10 or so years there how Johnny Depp seems to be in 75 percent of movies and nobody notices except me.
I used to let popular stuff get to me in my younger days and pick the other side out of some lame form of defiance. I mean, I'm from outside of Pittsburgh and I'm a Bengals fan, after all. Now I'm just a combo of mellow and sick of fighting I guess.
Actually, this made me think of a current overexposure fight I'm in. I don't work from home any more so I needed snow tires to navigate the rural PA hills and back roads. My wife's nephew is a mechanic and I asked about snow tires so he looked up a distributor he uses on my phone and I bought them. I'm glad I did, but I keep getting their ad before YouTube videos multiple times per day since then.
It also starts with an eagle or other predatory bird screeching and I say out loud to this ad "you already have my $550, you already have my money, you're wasting your time!". Personally, I'd rather hear about Taylor Swift next time that this eagle screech (which made my cat jump at least once) and marketing "rugged man" voice tell me again where to buy tiashhhrs.
I got Pandora when it started, was one of the first 100 people to sign up. The key is to not thumbs up too many songs or it will just play
them over and over. I have some really good stations that I have worked on for years. My Scorpions station is kick ass etc.
Yeah, I try not to let the pop stuff get to me but sometimes it is hard. Pretty sad when there is such great music out there and young
people only know about the pop stuff which usually sucks pretty hard like Swift.
That would be pretty annoying to have some screeching eagle coming from your phone all the time.
