Champs!
I'll chime in since RRO is probably busy doing paperwork.
I don't think it's so much about cheering when your not in the game. When I watch videos of Sharma doing some insane 5.15 climb I enjoy and cheer. Not because I can climb 5.15 with him, but because I can appreciate the work that it took for me to haul my ass up 5.11's and how much more work it must have taken him to haul his ass up 5.15. (Additional strength and time to climb help, but you know ... )

Not to go all serious or anything that might be regaurded as so.....but I think the whole thing is about distraction from the complacency of life, for a few hours each week, you too can be a part of something bigger than yourself. If your team wins, you get to talk trash at the office the next day, you can wear your favotite players jersey and meet people who you would not have met, through your common denominator," FOOTBALL". I have been a Bengals fan since Birth, I could see and hear the fans from my yard in Bellevue KY when I was young, I can see the stadium and hear the fireworks when they or the Reds win. I lost money on the Bengals in 89, while in the Army, when they lost to the 49ers a second time in the superbowl, am I a "renewed in spirit" Bengal fan now that they are finally a team?, you bet your ass, will them winning or losing change my way of life for the better or worse, no, but it is a pleasant distraction(just like climbing) from all lifes B.S.
I prefer the Ultimate fight though to any other sport out there, it does'nt get any more real than that..........

now piggy, i may be terrible at the logistics of football (ask allah about all the stupid questions i have to ask!), but i do feel i am more than a fair-weather friendquick, tell me the starting TE for OSU? anyone?
true, homeless shelters and needy causes are more productive uses of time, but sometimes i need to just watch two-ton men catch balls and knock each other over.
