Message: [QUOTE="sufandu, post: 4691333, member: 874"] Sports are about entertainment. Yes, stats matter: yards, points, etc. My entertainment is not dictated by attendance. And yes, sports are very much about anectodal experiences. Look at all of the posts we've had about experiences: the SU dunk tape, Hakim Warrick's dunks, Johnny Flynn posterizing the dude from Rutgers, Freeney planting Vick on his butt, the Kirby Dar Dar kick return against Florida, Ismail's kick return against FSU, the Marrone teams befuddling Geno Smith, SU-vs-Gtown, the Pearl hitting the halfcourt shot, 6 overtimes, etc. Rivalries are fun and entertaining. Why is this so hard to understand? If you want to boil down sports to some analytical formula and pretend your an ESPN analyst (maybe you are an ESPN analyst for all I know), have a ball. That seems like a really boring way to watch sports to me. [/QUOTE]
