Continuing to read that, I liked the response about watching the NBA

I’ve said this before, but if you’re a fan of a team strictly because you hope they win a title one day, you’re wasting your time. Unless you’re some Boston schmuck, sports are usually designed to disappoint you on that end. You have to be into the daily ritual of being a fan. You have to be into watching games drunk, and salivating over draft choices, and pissing and moaning when your team makes a stupid trade, and watching a promising young player develop and fooling yourself into believing that this time…this one goddamn time…maybe your team has a shot at joining that fractal tier of the league that hogs all the rings to itself. Then that young player breaks a foot and you’re buttfucked all over again
I finally get this having become what I would consider to be a true fan of a team. Instead of a draft, I get to read all the transfer window stuff but all the other stuff applies. Thanks to time zones, there's the occasional level of dedication of ending up drunk by 9AM in the morning due to a particularly brutal match.
