I think the Broncos would still have destroyed Cam Newton.

I couldn't even remember who else was in the Super Bowl this year, or who won, until Viciousss posted.
And I did watch it. Without booze, even. That's how much (NA) football actually matters to me, apparently. @.@;  it is a game, it has a ball. it applies right? (o uo)b pretty fun sport

Not my thing but I can imagine that might be in the minority opinion around here Well 3 of those 4 are at home so I think they will be ok, Houston has never been able to travel.

It means a lot in football and basketball, not so much baseball and hockey.

Outside of something like CentryLink Field where it is designed to be loud and gives a noticeable advantage to the Hawks. I never understood home field advantage. Traveling throws off routines, and sleeping patterns. You generally eat worse on the road, too (because you're more likely to go out). In American football, it absolutely matters with regard to crowd noise - being able to hear yourself on offense is important. The silent count isn't as effective, or people would just use it all the time. Rooks said: » Does Rocket League have pros yet? eSports are fine being in here as far as I'm concerned, anyway.

I heard that there was a scandel that a Starcraft 2 player was payed off to loose matches in a torne. >:
Everyone involved is being charged, but he was paid $42,000 to purposefully loose games. Shiva.Viciousss said: » It means a lot in football and basketball, not so much baseball and hockey. I can't speak to baseball, but it can have an effect in hockey... ...though oddly, depending on the specifics, it can be the opposite of what most would expect. I've heard a lot of former-players-turned-commentators say that road games, even in really hostile buildings, have a tendency to help you focus more on your play. When you're at home you've got your wife and kids and bills and ***all distracting you. You get on the road, your entire schedule is just the game and prepping for it, and being in enemy territory means all the bells and whistles at the arena serve to distract the home team more than the visitors. Edit: There's also the unfortunate entitlement issues of hockey fans that will boo their own team if they're underperforming. I hate when that ***happens. It's really irritating. Hadn't refreshed in a while. Jumping back to college sports, I never got really into them. In my small town area though we have like 4 colleges between two towns, and there are some rivalries there that are fun as heck to go to those games. Plus college hockey here is like 15 bucks to get in. Go Saints!

I watch it b/c everyone does and I enjoy seeing good plays made as much as anyone, but I generally find it to be kind of boring. And I just don't enjoy basketball for some reason. I think it's the squeaking sneakers and the off-court personalities of players...and people who try to say anyone has ever been or ever will be better than Michael Jordan. You know what though, COLLEGE Football is fking amazing. Sometimes those kids will just about kill themselves to make plays, unlike the NFL where everyone is scared of getting hurt and losing paychecks. Here's the thing about college sports (setting aside the NCAA, which is such a crock of ***I don't even want to talk about it). I don't get college sports. People who never went to college, let alone went to the college they're fervently dedicated to following? If you didn't go to a school, how do you have any significant attachment to it? I mean, I get why I keep tabs on the IUP All the diehard Pitt fans in the 'burgh who barely graduated high school in the vocational programs who will murder you for saying the words "Penn State" around them? Oi. You know what's also nutty? States that don't have professional teams. They go bonkers for NCAA football! The misfortune of tailgating at a Arkansas/'Bama game still haunts me. (Minus horseshoes.) Shiva.Viciousss said: » It means a lot in football and basketball, not so much baseball and hockey. Shhh...Much like everything baseball-related, you have to be patient.

Anyway. Antiquing Gaming Community is seeking a sponsor! We have a very lucrative League of Legends team, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive squad, and an up and coming Rocket League roster. All interested people who have deep pockets, send me a message! Antiquing: The Last Bastion Of Freedom
