But no, not actually, because there are many more reasons to like music bands and video games than some weird faux objective measure of “the best” whereas the bulk of athletes popularity is based on their ability to play something better than others in a competitive environment.
I feel like athlete fans are just advertising their own insecurity with their merch.
I get it if you play the sport, though, or if you’re a kid with a juvenille grasping for glory.
Nothing wrong with enjoying sportsball, but there is something deeply and personally disturbing to me about people who identify strongly with it. Seems like something that should be called out regularly instead of condoned and encouraged, but I guess it makes a lot of people a lot of money, so there my moral scolding is drowned out in advertising.
