rach 1 Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 Saw this at BBC site http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/3281489.stm I really enjoy watching some sports, esp footie of course. Lots of people just seem to get so worked up about sports, don't they? I wonder why. Link to post Share on other sites

rach 1 Posted November 22, 2003 Author Share Posted November 22, 2003 I suppose I too get carried away at times with my love for football, but when I stop and think about it it just seems silly (But fun!) Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 Isn't it because there are no consequences to getting worked up? Try getting worked up like that about your boss's opinions about the current project, or your wife's shopping choices. Getting worked up and committed is actually fun, but there are very few outlets for it. Sport is especially appropriate as the rules are so easy to understand. Link to post Share on other sites
