Football was always boring. Not as boring as basketball, mind you. What made it fun was the culture around it. Sweat in the afternoon heat and hanging out with people and beer and surprisingly terrible food that tastes good anyway because you're sweating so much your body is like "gimme salt now, motherfucker!"
Take that away and you're left with the game itself, which is really, really dull.
And full of people who are judging you despite that they wouldn't exist without you.

Take that away and you're left with the game itself, which is really, really dull.
And full of people who are judging you despite that they wouldn't exist without you.
And you're paying for it.
It's like paying to go to work!
