I think thats a problem

 

[Comrade Khan]

i dont mean to poo on football either, i just think it got a lot more popular because of fantasy

 

[Comrade Khan]

seems I only enjoy fake sports nowadays anyways lmao

 

[Wiseman]

Eh, it was getting bigger in the early 90s, fantasy wasn't really prevalent till late 90s when the net really started to be a major thing

 

[Lethal]

football is huge in high school & college

 

[Wiseman]

For sure

 

[Wiseman]

yeah i think fantasy just took it to the next level with online because all the nerds could get involved too. now ppl who dont like sports but like min-maxing have vested interested in watching games casually

[Comrade Khan]

oh im aware of the "reasons"

 

[Wiseman]

So I guess in essence makes the most money for schools, usually. At least here in the States

 

[Comrade Khan]

just saying the reasons are backwards, schools shouldnt be about making money

 

[Comrade Khan]

especially when that money just goes back into the football program lol
