And if I could muster the discipline to have it for only one year, I'd want it to be a year when we are really good so it is worth watching.

Bingo! I have already agreed to family outings and stuff during Skins games this year knowing this will probably be a down year. Plus with my son at his age now (3) it is kind of hard to want to do anything but spend time with him and he won't sit through a whole football game, especially in September when it is still nice out.
