Honestly, I'd rather overhear talk about the sports ball match than the homophobic and misogynistic bullshit I usually hear. At least racism isn't also usually included. I get enough of that from online gaming.
That is completely understandable
OMG, I have a very vague memory of Blood Bowl! I think neighbor friend had it or something?
It's so great! The pc versions still hold up btw! As long as you pretend that 3 never happened, that is 😁
It's me, ur colleague.
DEATH TO THE OPPOSITION
Are we still allowed to talk about anbo jitsu and parreses squares?
As long as you wear the uniforms first:
You’ll be very glad I’m not wearing the squares uniform.
Give me a good game of stratagem instead.
The 80s got some things right at least.
WHAT HAVE I TOLD YOU ABOUT TALKING ABOUT PARRESES SQUARES AROUND HIM?!
Let’s just be honest, here. Fantasy sports are just dungeons and dragons for jocks.
Also, “super fans” are just cosplayers, who happen to be jocks. And usually not very good cosplayers.
This is said pretty often on the internet but as a sports fan I don’t get it.
Like, if I wear my favourite player’s jersey, I don’t wanna portray them in any kind or form. It’s a show of support and a form of tribalism, really, that can easily be mocked without wildly misinterpreting it.
I wanted to find a good analogy but first came up with wearing colours to sports events, ha! But really it’s like wearing a band shirt on a live show; nobody’d call that cosplaying.
Edit: of course there’s full kit wankers but in decades of visiting mainland European footie stadiums I’ve only ever seen one. Seems to be a British thing. Let’s not talk about them.
Ah you beat me to it. Well put!
Say that reminds me the Winter springball league is forming. Signup sheet outside holosuite 3.

They look like the Wayans brothers
Weyouns brothers? No, they were clones.
Fantasy league sports turned out to be alright.
It’s just like D&D in bum-smacking skins, where the campaign continues whether the other character-players show-up or not.
I often fantasize about Picard being a rank 1 running back.
Sisko would be a great closing pitcher who can crush HRs, I see Janeway playing rugby and terrorizing everyone in her way
Yeah! How dare anyone have any interests different from yours!
I love many spectator sports, and pretty mainstream ones at that… but, ummm, have you met many of my fellow sports fans? The reaction described by this meme is, shall we say, understandable.
it's not that they are different, it's that we fucking drown in sports talk all the time
"DAE lu hate it when le fundie coworkers talk about LE SPORTSBALL???"
