We all put so much hype and excitement on the line when it comes down to game time even though we are told that it is just a game. If it is just a game, why does it feel like it means much more to us than that at any given time? If we are playing the game, running the meet, or competing at any given time we feel as if we are dedicating our lives, sweat, and hard work just to make a name for ourselves and earn a title. In reality though it does seem like just a game, a meet, or a match to others, but those are not the ones taking part in it and may not have the goals we aspire to achieve.
This is also the same, when we are spectators. We tend to call our favorite teams "My Team" and show ownership like the team belongs to us, when really we have no relation what so ever to the team; other than just being a fan. Even though we are not involved in the games or matches, we feel as if we are and try to yell at the players to make this move or you should have had that play. In this day and age, we really take our sports seriously and makes me wonder if it is really just a sport or if it is more.
