FuglyDuck @lemmy.world Let’s just be honest, here. Fantasy sports are just dungeons and dragons for jocks.
Also, “super fans” are just cosplayers, who happen to be jocks. And usually not very good cosplayers.
13 1 Replyrooroo @feddit.org This is said pretty often on the internet but as a sports fan I don’t get it.
Like, if I wear my favourite player’s jersey, I don’t wanna portray them in any kind or form. It’s a show of support and a form of tribalism, really, that can easily be mocked without wildly misinterpreting it.
I wanted to find a good analogy but first came up with wearing colours to sports events, ha! But really it’s like wearing a band shirt on a live show; nobody’d call that cosplaying.
Edit: of course there’s full kit wankers but in decades of visiting mainland European footie stadiums I’ve only ever seen one. Seems to be a British thing. Let’s not talk about them.

These are all fans wearing costumes. Cosplay is wearing costumes for fun. (Possibly with role play, but like Halloween is costume play.)

Viking_Hippie @lemmy.world Fantasy football? You mean Blood Bowl? Or Blood Bowl 2?
Or this?

🇰 🌀 🇱 🇦 🇳 🇦 🇰 ℹ️ @yiffit.net Honestly, I'd rather overhear talk about the sports ball match than the homophobic and misogynistic bullshit I usually hear. At least racism isn't also usually included. I get enough of that from online gaming.

JizzmasterD @lemmy.ca Fantasy league sports turned out to be alright.
It’s just like D&D in bum-smacking skins, where the campaign continues whether the other character-players show-up or not.
