When I was younger I was into sports as much as any other high school/college age guy. I followed football (college and pro) and even a little bit on basketball come playoff time or the odd year the Hawks were at least decent. But in the 2010s my interest in general started to wane. I can tell you if the Braves won last night or how the Hawks are doing in general (dreg this season) but I don't follow either on a game by game basis. Football is different because there's only one game a week but I don't feel as connected to the Falcons or Bulldogs; there's lots of stuff going on during the weekends from September-New Year's. When Georgia lost the title game to Alabama it felt like regular season loss to Auburn or Florida; it didn't sting like it would have probably just a few years before. While my interest had already decreased there is one moment where I can say it turned the corner and it occurred to me this weekend: Atlanta's absolute implosion in the Super Bowl. The biggest collapse on the biggest stage in sports and it was my team. It hurt then and I just have not cared as about any of it since then. I know Atlanta United won the MLS title last year but I never followed soccer and I certainly don't have an attachment to a team that is only it's third year compared to ones that are older than me.

Fuck Sports sound like a great way to get exercise and have sex. How do we monetize this idea
