        Some were made up ages ago and are still around and seem venerable and distinguished, whereas others were just made up recently and seem out of place and weird.

        I realised this when I wrote it. I guess I mean recognised by others. I host a trivia night and I don’t think ‘Who got the 2026 FIFA peace prize?’ is ever going to be a question

    Honestly doesn’t matter, all types of men’s football will be abolished after the revolution.

      They won’t, they will just be returned to their amateur roots. Sports are good community thingies

        But I also like the idea of roving bands of top tier athletes just going town to town and relentlessly annihilating every team of random people they meet, because it seems funny.

            The Olympics are a scourge of traveling marauders who force each town to produce a team of “athletes” to compete with them in each sport.

            It’s not violent (if the towns produce each team…) but it’s just hours of local townspeople getting rudely bullied, just utterly clowned in every sport imaginable by a rotating cast of bored exceptionally talented jerks.

              I like the idea about being bullied for not being very good at throwing hammers or riding a horse while it does tricks.

        haha, most certainly not. i’m just tired of my entire community having to warn each other where the hordes of fans are lurking when there’s a game in the area.

      Sports were huge in the USSR, I am pro-recreational sports, it is too expensive for adult leagues now
