  • Because not everyone shares your tastes, and the fact that it makes a fuckton of money every year reflects that.

    Also, most people I know who play FIFA also play Association Football. You need to rest muscles in between workouts to train properly, and if you really like Soccer, why not keep playing it while resting?

  • Anarchy says I can do what I want, but I want to support a government structure that organizes the efforts of many people in order to meet more people's needs, under threat of force against the selfish.

  • I'd rather have the media talk about Biden than give Trump EVEN MORE attention. The psychology of advertising has shown that the cliche "All publicity is good publicity" is literally true on a population scale of at least a few thousand. Discussing Biden on the news cycle, positively or negatively, makes him more likely to win more votes. That's why he will not and should not drop out now.

    To be clear: I wish he had stepped aside for a different democratic candidate in 2020. But since then, I don't believe there was ever a good time to shift attention to a replacement who would be popular enough to beat Trump.

  • Their future, and ours, is now in their hands.

    And ideally, just to be extra clear, he should continue with "Should they maintain their original position, that future will be in mine."

  • Just because a portion of funding doesn't make it back to the classroom for other students, a university is more than its academics. And the gyms and training centers built for the athletic program can often be used by other students at schools where the athletic program isn't popular enough to pay for itself.

  • Bad take with no argument to justify it.

    Sports are good for universities. Monetarily it's easy to see why, but it's also academically good too. Having sports teams builds a sense of community for the school that will bolster fraternizing between otherwise separate groups of people. This leads to students forming broader webs of connections than they otherwise would, which gives better outcomes after graduation since they know more things about more of the world, which is the point of going to a university.
