    I understand that “sportsball” is incredibly unpopular here on lemmy because yall are a bunch of nerds, but rory mcilroy accomplished something today that is extremely unusual and deserves recognition.

    Luigi also accomplished something extremely unusual that deserves recognition, but he didn’t do it today.

      It’s more like an illustration of Reddit turning into a useless bunch of fluff. I don’t know anything about golf or that guy, it just happened to be the top fluff when I posted.

        I love sports, especially combat sports, and have participated in lots of sports. I played (actually more sat on the bench) sports at a D1 college. But I understand and respect that lots of people DGAF about sports. Because I DGAFF about golf. It is a stupid bougie game, not a sport, and wastes a lot of resources. So I understand that folks don’t like sports in general.

      There are plenty of valid reasons to find sports boring. Yes playing some in person is fun but it’s totally valid to dislike watching or hearing about them.

      I like real sportsball. But, you’re talking about golf. I don’t know or care who rory macrory is and I couldn’t care less. Golf isn’t a real sport, it’s dudes walking around on a pretty lawn then occasionally whacking something with a club.
