Florida Man Joins Too Many Other Florida People at FSU Football Game in Obviously Too Crowded......

If people have to die for football, so be it. Gotta get those priorities right.

I don't follow minor league baseball, either.
College football is a minor league the NFL doesn't have to pay for.
Then it became a multibillion enterprise on its own.
I truly don't get being that into a lower quality version of the game.

It's slow, the coaches & their precious systems are far too important, it's extremely predictable, and the athletes are being exploited.
That last point really sticks in my throat. There's no fun in watching players get chewed up & spit out, far too often.

Games are closer, tickets cheap and for me a game is only an excuse to take an afternoon off, sit with some friends outside and drink beer.

I’m not much of a sports fan but it does have its uses.



Edit to add: not in a pandemic though. Duh.

I get that. We've got a minor league baseball team in the city of 160,000 around 20 miles north of us.
Been to one game. Nice park, good seating, very affordable.
But, I don't follow the team or the leagues overall.
And, it's still an inferior product.
I don't watch college baseball either, & my undergrad was from a school that has won over a dozen Div 2 or NAIA world series!
I don't even watch college basketball until March, and that's much more because I'm looking for the guys I'm going to be seeing soon in the NBA.
But, the cost driver is big, I agree.

You get to become one of the team and share in their glory and suffer in their defeats. Humans, like dogs, like to run in packs.

You're right, but that's not unique to college football.
You're explaining why fans are attracted to a team, & I agree with that.
But, what I don't get is the gigantic interest in an inferior form of the game.

Pass the wine

Looked like the people in attendance and the band were distanced, but is 6 feet enough distance from wind instruments? People on the sidelines all had masks on, but then they showed some closeups of the field and I could see that none of the players had masks on. I get that it would be difficult to play with a mask on, but there they are crashing into each other and breathing really heavy after running—a recipe for disaster.

We'll see if any get real sick and/or die. Then they'll make up excuses as to how unexpected it was that there was an outbreak.

Do you think that when they were filing in and out of the stadium they all kept 6' apart? I seriously doubt it. A thunderstorm came up during that game, and the vast majority sought shelter in the covered passageways. I doubt we will see those photos.

See who isn't in the hospital or dead then.

bell. I guess that is like a mask or something.
