Some of my friends in the group chats are sports fans and whenever they talk about sports, they don't talk about the sort of stuff I imagine a sports fan would actually care about. It's not "I hope my team wins the big game " and stuff like that, it's always the meta stuff.
"Hey dude, did you hear the Minnesota Penguins are going to sell their quarterback to Washington Eagles?"
"Yeah I heard coach LeMarius hates Chad Thunderpeepee because he called him the n word back in 2017 so they're getting rid of him. I thought they'd get rid of the coach first, there were rumors he's going to transfer off to either JanuarySixers or Arizona Thunder Warriors"
"That would have been such a shame, he's been with the team for four consecutive Galactic Cup victories, if they win this year too he'll finally get his Stormwind Signet Ring and a statue in the Hall of Fame"
It's always nonsense like this, discussing trades, injuries, transfers etc. I started noticing this a few years ago when I finally googled "fantasy football" after hearing them talk about it every fricking year. Whatever happened to just liking the game? You'd think the average sports fan would be like a FIFA 2023 fan not a Football Manager 2023 fan.

One of the reasons that Redditors "like" F1 so much is that the sport is more about metadrama than the actual races.

Horse racing fans take the cake

I like horse racing because once a year I get to dress like a dandy and pound mint juleps.

But then I'd look like a horse racing fan.

It's fun to have a few drinks and goomble on them. Sadly the closest track to me closed.
