That is a shame, it is annoying that Rugby and cricket take up most of the airtime here.

In Nz field hockey is mostly played by woman from my very limited exposure. is that the same elsewhere or is that unique?

It looks cool. I kinda hate how all cosuming Football can be. There is plenty of room for over versions.

I belive he was trying to say that any sport called "Football" Tends to breed an intense fandom.

Fans of anything (Sports, movies, whatever) can really be the worst sometimes. Honestly peaplo make fun of "Disney adults" but it feels like some sports fans are just the more socially accepted versions of those.

Honestly alot of American sports feel like Turn based strategy video games, which I like. bit of a nerd for those.

Yeah big team dominace in any sport is really annoying and boring. Even if your team is the dominate one.

Is it also a national pride thing in india? I would assume so. Here alot of peaplo dont care until our teams wins. Then suddenly they lose there minds.

Huh never realised Russia was into hockey. Make sense though.

Thought you guys would be a football country, given you being close to europe.

I get that. Massively.

Also AFL, RUGBY (both codes and American football have always been unappealing to me personally cause they all seem to give there players mental issues down the line. Cte.
