It is hard to explain the passion of sports fans to someone who doesn't follow the genre. Oftentimes, you hear the "I just don't understand how you could care so much about something that doesn't affect your life."

That comment is a clear indication that someone truly doesn't understand because sports do affect our lives.

When your team wins the big game, your day is made. Then, when your team loses the big game, it is a feeling of dread and depression for the next 24 hours.
