It’s even worse for NBA basketball. You can pay for the entire league and it’s not too expensive, but they specifically black out the local or neighboring team. So you have to pay to watch every team except your own. It’s honestly completely absurd.

Sports fans are the most owned little bitches, i fucking swear. Every time i hear about this shit my brain lights up with irrational sadistic glee.

I dont even hate sports, i dont know why i feel this. Maybe its the oft neglected bully lobe of my brain seeing such an easy eager-to-be-abused target.
