(older article, but i believe still true today)<p>I used to really hate sports, and make fun of people. It took me a long time to realize i was just an alienating asshole. While not really my thing, i try to put in a tiny bit of effort to be aware of what&#x27;s going on in sports, and it&#x27;s improved casual relationships a lot. That said, taxes for stadiums is a pretty bad idea.
