people who do the sportsball/handegg thing are on the same level as a person who would walk in on someone playing a game and be all "oh are you winning the pokeman levels in the world of warcraft"
even when i have watched sports i have a hard time really like, rooting for a team
i just like watching big plays happen
yeah, that's probably a healthier way to go about it anyways
I know I don't really watch full games of most sports, or if I do it's largely on in the background, but like...sometimes it is just fun to see people do ridiculous shit that would probably kill me if I even made at attempt at replicating them

I never pretended to be funny or original FARG.
I'm not exactly a comedian eh? I'm on that Lawrence the cable company contractor level.
The last bullet point is pretty much my raison d'être Geebs. Which team should I root for?
okay so: if you want stupidity, without any real, actual malice, you want the Cleveland Browns, who are fucking terrible and constantly make the worst choice that they can make at any given moment, which somehow infects every single person that ever steps foot in the organization. their stupidity is consistent, reliable, and seemingly never-ending
if you want to root for a team that makes you feel stupid, you want to root for the Atlanta Falcons, who are currently the best team in the NFL at finding incredibly stupid ways to lose at the worst possible time, including probably the worst Super Bowl lost in the history of the Super Bowl
that's the NFL, if you were looking for like, dumb MLB teams to root for, it's tougher. I would have said the White Sox last year, but I don't know if they can top "player quits because the team won't let his kid sit around the clubhouse and then the rest of the team acted like they killed someone and one of the pitchers even put up a shrine to the kid in the locker room" and "pitcher is mad about the uniform he had to wear so he snuck into the clubhouse and shredded them all with a pair of scissors so he didn't have to wear them"
in the NHL the dumbest team to root for is the Avalanche, who hired a man who stuck his hand in a running snowblower to be in charge of making hockey decisions
I "root" for the Cowboys, as in I sorta keep track on how they're doing but never actually watch a game. I used to be more into football a couple years ago, but once friends stopped coming over to my place to watch games I really lost interest. The only game I watched last season was the Superb Owl, like a lot of people.
There was one time I had an asthma attack right after the super bowl when I was a little kid so that was fun. I was feeling worse and worse as the game went on, and like 5 minutes after I had to go to the hospital.
At least it had the courtesy to wait until the Cowboys won before making me almost die!
Sports highlights are dope. I mean, any example of crazy human athleticism is pretty neat, imo.
And of course its fun to get together and watch any sporting event with your mates because you are getting together with your mates and there is likely booze involved.
But personally it I am on my own I am going to throw on some kinda e-sport or board or miniature game tournament over a traditional sport every time. That's just where my personal interests are. And since I know them better I can pay less attention to them and do something like build models at the same time without getting totally lost.

let me tell you about Georgia-based sports teams, such as the Atlanta Falcons, and how Stupidity enters the venn diagram like a knife for me on all counts

I grew up with the rest of my whole family completely obsessed with sports while I just genuinely do not care. One of my brothers is always watching some kind of sport. Last time he visisted I went to ask him something and he was watching basketball on his phone and soccer on his laptop while the TV was on the AFL.
So now I hate sports, because I really don't care at all and it's all I ever heard about it growing up and whenever my family gets together. It's not that it's bad, I just don't care but have had to deal with it being The Most Important Thing for a long time.

For a while I kinda actively loathed football because one of my college professors would spend entire classes going on and on about the Steelers with a bunch of the students every time they had a game, win or lose.
It's like, motherfucker this shit is expensive, can we maybe learn a thing?
Now I'm back to just not being interested. I tried to keep up with football for a while for fitting in at work purposes, but I just couldn't do it.

I think it's funny to intentionally go "are you winning?" when you full well know it's not an appropriate question.
I didn't grow up with parents or siblings or even friends who were into sports, so it just wasn't a Thing for me. As an adult, I really like going to baseball games, so I adopted the Orioles since I was born in Maryland and I normally drive up to Baltimore once a season to catch a game. Baseball is also great background tv noise.
I enjoyed high school sports because it being my classmates playing made me feel a personal connection to the team. Also if we did well enough we might make it to the season championship and get a day off school.
Outside of high school I've never been able to care one lick about any given team so if I happen to be watching I just root for whoever's behind because I want to see them make an amazing comeback. Those are always exciting.
IGPX is a weird one in that Production IG made it for the American market, which is a super rare thng in the anime world - basically limited to them (they're also doing the Flcl sequel for some reason even though everyone from that OVA who matters is over at Trigger) and Sunrise with Big O season 2 plus sorta Samurai Champloo (which was a thing in Japan too but only as much as Cowboy Bebop was, which is to say, not much), or Gonzo with Afro Samurai

nintendo sold the vast majority of their stake in the mariners last year
They still got 10% and a 3ds app that lets you order beer and hot dogs

Soccer is a fun game though

So yeah, can confirm.

I'd definitely watch that.
It depends on where Goku is in his timeline. See there's these Power Levels, and

Nightmare Before Christmas should have been young Chincy's whole aesthetic though!
