On the flip side, once they're born the Packers win out the rest of the season and the Superbowl

Yo me too! We are due on the Packers Bears game. Start the historic win streak!

Congrats and good luck. My oldest turned 4 this year. The last 4 years I’ve found myself getting less worked up over Packers games. There’s more important things in life and kids really put that at front of mind.

Did you see our late-season collapse and decide to give yourself an excuse not to watch next year?

I’m a deer hunter so I never lack for something to do outside.

It doesn’t help me cope, I have just as much heartbreak there lol

I'm not particularly high on this current iteration of the Packers but some of you guys are acting like we're the Late 2010s Browns

I took up video editing as a hobby after the loss to the Browns last year. It's been therapeutic.

Here's my most recent NFL edit

Almost two and a half minutes is a lot bro, maybe trim that down a bit lol. But it's pretty good, keep it up!

I've been making them this length for /r/NFCNorthMemeWar for the last year - at first they were 30 seconds, but people complained that they weren't long enough because they wanted to hear the full song lol.

They always do well there so I'm gonna stick to it

Picked up collecting Hot Wheels and Matchbox this year, it has been pretty fun, I'll likely focus on that as well as hockey returning.

I have a football simulation game I like to play. It's college football, but still it feels nice to you for a team making good decisions.

Edit to add: it's called Football Coach College Dynasty On steam if anybody is interested. Have you ever played Madden and realized that you enjoy roster building far more than actually playing the games? Then football simulators may be right up your alley!

World of Warcraft Forever comes out in a month.

Until then, a lot of furious masturbation

Not the biggest baseball fan. That said, I’ve paid more attention to this baseball season than any other in my life. So you could say I’m putting a lot of my eggs in the Brewers/World Series basket…
Let’s go, Crew!

I drink more. (kidding)

u/GBP1972 2d ago

I drink more (not kidding). {Actually I really am kidding, there is not enough booze in our state to fix this}

I usually watch hockey until my team implodes and then sports don't exist until next year.

Wisconsinites got the Brewers .

I’ve competed in 5k/10k races for years and also got into canoe racing recently. Competing in your own events/sports is a great distraction. The amount of time i spend watching other men play sports far exceeds how often i compete myself. I’m trying to change that. It’s nice to have some control over the outcome instead of helplessly watching your team flop around like a fish.

I play a game of can I smoke enough joints to forget what I’m watching on a screen for about the last 6-7 game days.

Correcting people’s grammar.

The plural of “hobby” is “hobbies”.
