Wow, Microsoft word suggests for me to use “a single parent” instead of “a single mother” because it’s more “inclusive” 🙄
@LukeAlmighty I like such competitive sports in fictitious works because I have a more idealistic view of it.

Here in the real world, there's so much politics going on in sports, even though in the past, it was supposed to be neutral and friendly. The teams are "diverse", so diverse that the entire french soccer team is black. There's drug use behind the scenes. Sponsorship deals with Qatar, which will even host the FIFA World Cup in 2022. Individual athletes get millions paid, while in the past, they even paid the travel costs on their own (Olympia games).

In fictitious works, it's usually truly competitive, about honor and truly representing your clan/tribe/country, etc.. Even I am not immune to herd mentality, I would like to cheer for someone in real life, but I do not see those people as my own and/or honorable.

I get is, some people like football in the real world, but I don't.

If I do not like football in real life, Why the fuck would I care about it in a fantasy world, where there is even lesser impact to my life?
