I like how people are dropping in here calling it pathetic. This dude calling it incomprehensible.

You check their post history and they like some random shite too. Wrestling, reality tv, and this dude here with fantasy sports.

People that are into wrestling, big brother, and fantasy sports are bagging on people playing video games.

I have an 8 yr old that watches YouTube videos of mine craft, of all things. It's not even competitive. He makes good grades, and is as active as an 8 yr old can be, but I still shut that crap down when I catch him. I would make him come outside and hit baseballs. Monday they won the championship. Weird huh?


God you sound fricking terrible. On top you sound like a terrible father.

Your kid is 8 years old and you are going to shut down...nevermind. You suck and your son is unlucky to have you

Yes. Dumb as frick.

It is as dumb as someone watching a video of me tinker with my fantasy football lineup.

Or watching a video of people watching a basketball game.

Etc.

There's an entire board dedicated to you talking about changing your fantasy football lineup.

So instead of them watching, you're just narrating.

Dumb. As. frick.

I've never watched a video of people playing fantasy football. Because that would be dumb.

how exactly can someone watch someone play fantasy football. There is no 'playing' involved. The lineups are set and they watch their phones for 3 days nonstop

Have you ever watched a hunting and fishing show?

Or maybe a sporting event that you participated in? If so, you are a hypocrite.

You are wrong on so many levels. A terrible parent is a parent who lets their children watch some stranger play video games. The ones that allow it are the ones that neglect their parenting responsibilities. But hey, as long as it keeps the kid occupied for hrs and is out of my hair I will defend it

I watch Minecraft videos to learn how to build things that are advanced like using redstone or making a sphere out of cubed objects.

It's like people don't understand the concept of leisure. It doesn't have to provide purpose whether it be production or survival, but only to satisfy you.

It's like buying a teacup Chihuahua.

Letting an 8 year old watch youtube videos of a video game is being a terrible parent?

He is 8 years old.

The kid is watching a video and the dad comes in, shuts off the tv, and forces him to go outside and hit baseballs. Yea thats wonderful parenting. Thats a great way for the kid to hate baseball and his dad later in life.

Yea ok. Forcing your son to play sports is great parenting.

I bet GeeOH would probably disown his son if he came out to be gay. Cant have none of that in GeeOH's house where he rules.

Oh well then surely you see the comparison. ETA: And speaking of dumb as frick, if you don't see the comparison between watching someone else play video games and watching someone else play poker, well... you can figure it out.
