It’s everywhere. From images, to videos, to Tiktoks, to adverts … I’m over saturated with opinions, replays, player ratings, hyperbole and the like.
There’s only so much you can take.
Example 1. The Newcastle goal vervus Arsenal. Never ending discussions on the decision. The hyperbolic nature of the punditry. The uneven opinions of the same people.
Example 2. Handball against Newcastle. Hundreds of videos all moaning, complaining over and over again. The same pundits complaining and restarting their opinion.
And now the new one - the ref not giving Man City an advantage in the Tottenham game. It starts all over again. The videos, the complaining, the shouting Tiktoks…
I just don’t care anymore.
Rational discussions are gone, replaced with hyperbole and drama.
It’s too much. I can’t watch any football related content anymore.
The only thing to do is to shut it all out but the commentary is just as bad.
The trick is not to take the opinions of idiots like Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher seriously.
Considering the utter rubbish they come out with most of the time, this isn’t that difficult.
As for the decisions you mention, personally I’m amused how Eddie Howe is happy with VAR one week and then mysteriously against it the next. No prizes for guessing why.
And as for the “new one”, if Haaland wasn’t such a flat track pony and hadn’t missed some sitters, the plastics would have been out of sight before the incident even took place.
