My favorite part about going to a game is getting lost trying to find the bathroom and then just wandering around for a while and getting more and more lost. It's good exercise in big stadiums!

Will esports leagues have carpal tunnel scandals like the NFL has with TBI? Or will they start banning people for using energy drinks and ritalin to spike their attentiveness during a match?

Basketball and hockey are objectively better sports but I guess one has just slightly too many black people (and you can't hide their faces under helmets) and the other has too many Canadians.

Go outdoors more and circulate.
Work out, lift, jog, take walks and gain.
Find a creative hobby and learn new stuff.
Get a weekly board or card games group going.
Construct cool stuff and sell it online. Use your tools!
Join Big Brothers to help & redpill some disadvantaged kids.

Yep I just don't get it. I can see how it would be exciting if you were emotionally invested in your team winning, but holy poo poo, it's tough to really care about the Carl's Jr. Mid-Play Report that's 30 seconds of replays and 1:30 of Carl's Jr commercial.

Fellow 49ers fan I see

The bad thing about being a 49ers fan is the dreck we've had for most of the last 15 years.

The good thing is if you were around from 81-95 you got to see The Beatles of football.

It's like, I wish they didn't fall down as much in football. It's just so hard for the guy with the ball to run with all those guys trying to tackle him. Maybe, maybe that's the challenge of it though, when ya think about it. :shrug:

I was either not born or a young child during that time frame so unfortunately my golden 49ers years were the Harbaugh years and we all know how that went!

I mean what the gently caress Jed York can't you take being called a little bitch to your face in exchange for 2-3 superbowl championships in a 10 year span? All he had to do was shut the gently caress up and fire Baalke.

American football reminds me of the moment when Johnny Depp and Dr. Gonzo walked to the circus casino in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.

Soccer is great, but I don't get to watch it really since I don't have a cable package. It's not as high intensity as football, I guess, but it's also not interrupted by commercial breaks every 3 minutes
