I dont play or watch soccer. But its a lot of fun to grill while hearing a friend tell stories about smuggling beer to the stadium or kidnapping an oposing teams mascot. Sports should be a social activity you do with your friends, if you only focus on the millionates kiking a ball you are missing all the fun. i think thats the reason a lot of you dont get it.

I used to sail when i was younger(a 9 ft craft that was worth about 500 usd) and while atmitedly quite relaxing and enjoiable it was a one man boat. Maybe i could get someone else to join me if they were ligthweigth. So i never devveloped the sort of nostalgia about sailing people have about soccer.

However i did went to and hosted a few lan parties and even if age of empires and warcraft are objectvley not the best games there is a certain nostalgia atached ti them due to the social experience of lans.

I dont play soccer because were i grew up it was 50+ c outside for most of the year.
