But that's sort of my point. If doesn't matter if you understand because it's what I like and that's what matters.
It takes a lot of solo work to be competitive in anything. I've liked competing in cycling and running because of the physical and mental attributes necessary to be successful in the sport. You mentioned two games that aren't really sports at all, so it's sort of apples and oranges.
