I'm surprised that by far I seem to be the only one in my circles who realizes that the victory of your own city's team doesn't bring you happiness. What's the point in sports anyways if you don't do them yourself? If I basically think sports are overrated. There is a team in Finland called Jokerit. (Jokers So discuss if you like. Here are good conversation starters:
Anyways, my original point was, if a team that you might support loses,
- Why does 'your' sports team rule?
- What benefit is it to you if 'your team' wins? Does it enhance your self-esteem? (Because if it does, it's quite sad that your self-respect depends on some team that in reality has got nothing to do with you. It's like you decided whether you respect yourself depending on the position of the planets.)
- Are sports overrated?
