and you cant enjoy the "purity" of the game when you fill out a bracket?

you realize that you "rooting" for a team is not going to affect the outcome one bit? Just watch the game and enjoy what happens. You can do that either way

its hard to appreciate the beauty of a fantastic play if it is the play that wins the game for the team you didnt pick. I just find I enjoy it so much more this way. There isnt a single play that I cant fully enjoy because it doesnt affect me at all in either direction.

But of course, like everyone else, if you arent doing it the same way you are doing it then you are doing it wrong. Isnt that what you meant to say?

Kinda sounds like maybe that's what you were saying?

My family and I have a monopoly night once a month. I used to get all stressed out about winning and it just wasn't fun. Now, I just watch my wife and kid play monopoly, and its a lot less stressful now......

Board games with the family is an entirely different animal. That shite causes divorces and lifelong grudges.

not at all. As I already said, I never said anyone else should ever do it this way, i was just agreeing with the OP that I, ME, MYSELF, THAKAPTIN enjoys it more this way. I'm the one that is getting told how stupid/pussified/beta/etc etc I am. Not the other way around. March is my favorite time of year. People think I am a rabid football fan to idiot proportions. They really shouldnt be around me in March then.

This is how I love it and this is how I'm going to keep loving it. Whether or not I make a bracket affects no one but me anyway.
