#75 - The Rona Series Episode 66: Why Are We So Invested in Sports?
Show Notes

We love sports around here.  Watching it can entertain, inspire, and cause heartbreak amongst a few emotions that it stirs in us, as passive viewers.  Some can say cheering on your favorite sports team is a culture of life, and others can argue that it is just entertainment that you switch on the same way you would do a movie or show on TV.  For us as friends, we love talking about sports and wallow in the pride and pain of when our favorite sport or sports team is victorious or not.

In this episode, we have a fun and quick chat talking about why we fall so hard when our favorite team does.

Throughout this episode, we learn that watching sports and the athletes that play them, is not as far-fetched as watching our favorite comic book hero.  Though they aren't fighting bad guys, athletes can be defined as heroes as much as any one hero with a cape.  The same way that one definition of heroes is to inspire, professional athletes can do the same.

In the end, whether you like sports or not, we all find heroes and people or things that inspire us.  Sports are no different from our favorite fictional characters.
