        I've concluded two things about the popularity of sport.

        1. It is an outlet for tribalism. Men like to feel part of a group; they like to discuss their common interest with peers. To be disinterested in sport would make one odd.

        2. It makes them feel special when their team wins. Vicarious achievement.

        Thus football fans are LAZY UNIMAGINITATIVE CONFORMERS.
