I have a love hate relationship with sports these days. I played everything up until high school, then I played football, basketball, and ran track in high school, and played football until I was 23. I can actually say that I received a small paycheck for playing football once before I was cut from a minor league arena team.
I stayed away from participating in any sports until I coached football at the feeder level from like 2020-2022 which I did for 3 seasons. I proved to myself that I could do it, and had some fun, but adding that into my schedule which is taken up by two businesses, young kids, and other life stuff was extremely tiring and Im glad that Im done with it even though I talk to a few of my players regularly still as a coach because they ask me for advice from time to time.
I tend to get super excited when NFL preseason starts, then I start watching games every time theyre on, and lose interested before halftime and move on to something else.
As far as sports gaming, sports games are my rpgs. Im very passionate about playing franchise mode on Madden, 2k, and The Show, and soon to be NCAA Football again every season, and I play them all year long.
