• Xenforo Cloud will be upgrading us to version 2.3.5 on March 3rd at 12 AM GMT. This version has increased stability and fixes several bugs. We expect downtime for the duration of the update. The admin team will continue to work on existing issues, templates and upgrade all necessary available addons to minimize impact of this new version.

Fans who get "depressed" about their fav fighters growing old have no sense of what LIFE means

HomerThompson said:
I liked OP, but getting depressed about your favorite fighter being old is very natural. The fighter is just an avatar for you to see your own frailty, and humanity, in. It hammers home your own mortality. Pretty simple, really.

...but that's wrong.

People should not project (in the manner you portrayed) onto others.

We are all individuals.

The "avatar" that you speak of is distinct from you as a human being; it's simply not right to live ones life through others...

It's not living your life through them, it's seeing your own mortality in them. Just like a movie can illicit emotions, or a book, or a song.

I'm pretty sure you're trolling, but you'll have to do much better than this to keep it interesting.

On Sherdog...

How often have you seen people talk shit about Fedor simply because he's old?

That is the phenomenon that I'm largely speaking to.

MANY people live their lives through their fav fighters...

Just look at Conor huggers............. O_O'

Fighters declining with age is normal

Crap "fans" of the sport shitting on them is depressing
 
Why go gentle into that good night when you can still slap Mir over the head.

When Jordan played for the Wizards, that did NOT taint his legacy for example, but many losers loved to project that onto him...as if that magically changed what he did in the past.

Jordan was never at risk of getting KTFO and taking brain damage when he was playing for the Wizards.
