The overwhelming level of sponsorships is one of the two main things that drove me away from sports generally, if I'm honest.


And the other?


I get very creeped out by the tribalism exhibited by sports fans.


Still better than the tribalism exhibited by SV companies fans.


Similar effect, yes, but sports fans come off (to me) as more extreme. I've never seen someone hate another because they chose the wrong brand of phone, for instance, but I've absolutely seen people hate other people for choosing the wrong team.
