To make up for this they decided that sports were for dumb people and that videogames, anime, dressing like a furry, watching mlp etc is what the smart kids did. Then after high school ended and people really stopped caring they didn't because they never learned how to socialize and now they just walk around saying "why won't women sleep with me. I'm smart. Why's she with that douche bag that spends his Sunday watching sports ball!

I grew up playing/watching/breathing AFL, and it never lasts 4-6 hours. 3 hours max. Unless you refer to pre/post match coverage, in which case in Victoria it's 24 hours. --- Nice guy?

It went from 12pm (which includes the pre lunch celebration and kids activites shown on live TV while peordically showing the players in waiting rooms getting ready.) The games started at 1:30 and lasted until 5pm, then it was an hour of post game commentary and celebrations. Nowadays, this is shorten down and pre game stuff is removed except for the grand final due to financial costs. I found it insanely boring. --- Gday <cite>xxdudeyy posted [p:896542830] in why do ner...
