It's a sociably acceptable and encouraged interest OP. There's no particularly reason people who get invested into sports teams wouldn't end up filling that void with something else but why would they? It's a safe conversation piece with almost anyone, can even give you a leg up in your work's good ol boy's club, and it's widely free from appreciable criticism. You look at other consumption hobbies, general media, games, that kind of thing, and when there's a scandal there's calls to shut the whole thing down, people don't want to associate with it anymore. But with sports you can have as many big name players beat their SO's as you want, hell you can even have known pedo rings and it trundles on impervious to scandals. You're not gonna see people rolling into QCS demanding that football chat be removed from the sports subforum because of a big newsworthy hubabaloo.

Classic tale of an everyman getting run out of his anime thread for being too horny, attempting to find camraderie in GBS by claiming sports are dumb, getting thoroughly sonned, accusing those around him of being performatively masculine, complaining about yu-gi-oh, buying BBC a small penis avatar and accusing them of liking women's sports. You love to see it.

When 85,000 people show up every week, and buy $50 million dollars in merchandise to watch Dr. Dipshit take little Bobby's temperature, sure. Guess what they're not doing though? The athletes make that money because they are worth it to their franchisees. Not because of their 'worth to society'. There are doctors who arguably do good for people who also then become celebrities. Guess what happens to their income as demand for their service and marketability rise?

The merchandise is what weirds me out enough to not participate. poo poo's everywhere and people wear it with the little logos like clan tartan and I'm just "??? Where is your village?" The Industrial Revolution and it's consequences have been a disaster for the human race.

All I want to k ow about sports fans is why anytime I see someone showing their whole rear end about some politically or especially racially charged story, the person showing themselves to be a stupid dipshit always has a timeline absolutely full of retweets of sports stuff, often college football, with absolutely zero interactions on their own posts Like there is this whole mass of stupid racists who live for college football or baseball or something along those lines, and every now and then will wake from their slumber and will post about how they don’t think Kamala Harris should be Vice President because ladies have emotions and Native American ladies are alcoholics or some poo poo Who are these people and why is a specific sport the only thing in their life that they care about other than casual racism

The presented narrative around sports is just unbelievably boring imo. "Will he make the point???" I don't care. Someone mentioned the Olympics puff pieces and it's all the same absolute mindnumbing poo poo. "I had an injury and my grandma died, and I was worried I wouldn't make it to the Olympics! But I worked real hard and here I am! Thanks to America/God/grandma, I'll do it for you!!!!" Then I started watching 30 for 30, and it turns out there are actual fascinating sports stories. Why aren't those getting told anywhere else? (I also hate nerd poo poo so yes I'm very fun at smalltalk)

The Bloop posted:It's ok to like sports AND painting warhammer figures and watching cartoons imagining two guys. sports guy, and warhammer guy. warhammer guy is painting his mans while sports guy is watching sports... the twist? They're BEST buddies. Sports guy likes the warhammer because it reminds him of football, he loves to see all the lil men line up, he sees his buddy as a coach. He doesn't play, but he knows if a team with red jerseys is on, he can say 'the red makes them go faster', which gets his buddy just GLOWING with joy and laughter. The Warhammer guy sees his buddy as a noble space marine carrying the legacy and culture of men into future centuries of men, each sports team logo a banner for men to rally under. He's happy his sports guy friend doesn't bite his style, avoiding a horus heresy situation.
