Yeah that's pretty shitty. A few of my best friends hate sports and that doesn't bother me at all. It shouldn't make a difference.

 

I've noticed that a lot of my IRL friends who also like sports are also people I have nothing in common with other than that, hahaha. So I guess I'm the opposite of @iCarly Rae Jepsen in a way

 

Buy socks.

 

Not sure if there's a good spot in this mall for me to get those.

 

I don't watch the NFL but this meme is what I automatically think of when I hear Falcons.

 

I honestly don't know if it was other people or just my own insecurities

 

I should just replace Georgia with Minnesota and my mom would love that joke.

 

That's a weird meme given how prolific Atlanta's offense has been for years. Their defense is what is trash.

 

I think of the time Ludacris rapped about having sex with a girl on the fifty yard line during a Falcons game in What's Your Fantasy, sounds like a logistical nightmare

 

would be a hell of a halftime show.

 

my irl friends have nothing in common with me but I hang out with them because they get food with me and also they are good for some sport talk.

 

I used to be the latter haha. If there was a football game on, I'd ask how many home runs there were.

 

I'd probably smack you.

 

Yeah that probably would've infuriated me hahaha

 

I went to a legit baseball game. People who hate watching baseball on tv told me they still had a blast and then I went to one. It wasn't fun. I used to dance halftime at Blazers games and that wasn't too fun to watch either. I heard the Timbers soccer games are fun to see but I haven't done that yet. I don't think I'm spirited enough to really get into the sports stuff. I'm kinda buzzkilly


In other news Britney Spears' What You Need is my new fave song to sing badly in the car

 

I can totally relate. being from Texas, hockey is not exactly thriving. I grew up with hockey with my dad and brother. When my boyfriend and I started dating ~7 years ago i took him and two friends to a game. I got up at the end of the game and all three of them are just sitting there. so i'm like "...so...are we going to leave?" they are like "there isn't another period?" He's a big stars fan now though thanks to me. And also its fairly easily to convince people who aren't big fans to come to stars games too because its so cheap to go. i've converted a good number of friends so i'm pleased. Enough that we can get a group together to watch games.

 

It's sad how small hockey is here, especially considering Stars games are probably the most fun sporting event in the area

 

Yeah, don't know. hockey just ain't a southern sport i suppose haha. Its so affordable to go too, as long it isn't a premiere game. Like i talking i can sit at the top for like under $15. People don't know what they are missing.

 

I walked in to get my hair cut today and the hair ladies were like "woah you look so cool!" and I'm just like muahahahaha I've tricked multiple people into thinking I'm not a total loser JOKES ON YOU

 

I went to a few baseball games at an age young enough where I thought it was fun. Also went to a couple hockey games in high school and those were actually pretty fun to watch cuz it's fast paced. Would never go out of my way or pay to go see one though.

 

I was dragged to a monster truck rally once. It was horrendous

 

I saw O Town sing the national anthem at a baseball game and after that it's like why bother no topping that

 

I like going to baseball games, but I'm lazy and never go to more than one a year. I'm really just a super lazy sports fan in general.

 

Baseball is my favorite sport to watch by far. I can get discount Rangers' tickets through work so I need to do that before the season ends. We have family friends with Red Sox season tickets so growing up I'd go to about a game a month.

 

finding a hockey fan in Fresno is such a rare experience for me. You think with how successful all three California teams have been but nope. Sharks tickets are going up so it'll probably be harder for me to go unless it's a crappy team.

I also love the stars. They are like my second favorite team thanks to Seguin and Benn. So much fun to watch.
