Always enjoyed watching and playing sports. The big 3 plus soccer later on in life. I’ve always been a “fan” and I think it’s ok to root for your chosen teams - be they pro or college/high school. But it’s probably not healthy to invest too much time, energy, money and your sanity to the detriment of what really matters in life.
I’ve got a friend who is so fanatical about Green Bay Packers football I’d swear it has affected his life in ways he may not even recognize. A rather unhealthy affinity. Definitely puts the fanatical in the word fan.
I suspect like with anything moderation is key. But I think it’s ok to be upset and disappointed for a day or so after a big loss, and on top of the world happy for a couple of weeks when your team wins the Natty.
But at 66, I’m losing interest in a lot of sports and the transfer portal in college games isn’t helping. That said, I still plan on going to a local high school football game this Friday. Go team!
