Never have I ever understood why people care so much about sports or teams or whatever.
Okay, but "never have I ever understood why X" is just turning "never have I ever" into a platform for random opinions like what happened to the Kermit sipping tea meme.
Maybe. I struggled a lot with how to word this, because I honestly feel very much like an outsider about this. Never have I ever felt like shouting after a sports play? Never have I ever felt like one team was more "mine" or whatever? I really do feel like there's a near-universal experience here that I'm not part of.
