raysox Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 It was Cricket, but I made connections to baseball to familiarize it and after that I became comfortable enough with it. The key is to actually watch the scores being built, because the format like 276/5 is nonsense at first. Then it was Aussie Rules. It looks like madness. But i did the same thing, and actually started playing with my local club. @MichaelDanger19Ā | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrimalCookie Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 Gaelic football. I saw it once when I wasĀ in Dublin. Didn't understand a thing the whole time. Ā For major sports, it has to be hockey. Call me a classic Floridian, but I never gained interest in the sport (due to not knowing how to skate until a few years ago) and all of its niches. Basically, I know it as "the northern/Canadian sport on ice where they're allowed to fight". I understand the game more now, but still not entirely.

Red Wolf Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 10 hours ago, Gothamite said: E-āsportsā. Ā Why any adult would want to watch another adult play video games is beyond me.Ā Ā I agree with this for the most part. I'm not really into esports, but I've enjoyed watching Rocket League or fighting game tournaments for a few minutes. Those are games that are pretty fun to watch because seeing people who are good play is way different from watching somebody like me play. I don't really watch a lot, maybe for a few minutes if I come across it. Ā I don't enjoy watching FPS's, MOBA's, or sports games. MOBA's seem impenetrable (the baseball/cricket of esports), and watching people shoot each other is usually boring to watch, and the sports games are just worse versions of the real thing. Ā I also find most of the culture around video game streaming to be baffling. It's not a "why would I watch video games instead of play?!" issue for me. Rather, it's that the people playing are woefully boring. There can be some fun in watching a stream, but 99% of streamers, even the popular ones, are about as interesting as standing in a long line before the advent of smartphones.

This reminds me of the plot of the horrible Speed 2, when the protagonist figured out who the villain was. Because he wasn't watching golf on TV even though he had golf clubs in his room.

By that point, the teams that are actually going to contend are doing just that, while everyone else is out of it and you don't have to bother. This also means you might get a glimpse of that one "hot" team that usually takes the wild card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
