20.3% Of People Would Give Up Alcohol For A Year In Return For Sports, 6.2% Would Give Up Sex
Daily Caller ^ | April 16, 2020 | DAVID HOOKSTEAD

A ton of people would stop drinking alcohol for a year if it meant sports would start back up.

According to a study from TickPick, 20.3% of people would give up booze for a year in return for sports being back. More than 6% of people would give up sex for a year for sports to return from the coronavirus pandemic.

Another 5.2% of people said they’d straight up get the virus to have sports back, and 4.7% would take a pay cut.

Would you give up sex for a year in return for college football? The more I think about it, the easier the decision becomes for me.

Look, fellas, you can have sex for the rest of your life and there are tons of women out there. You might only have one chance to win a title!

Once the season is over, we can get back to taking care of our women.

As for alcohol, could we really make it through the college football season without a single beer? That might be a lot harder than it sounds.

What, I’m just not supposed to start shotgunning Bush Lights after Graham Mertz drops 500 in a game this upcoming season?

As for taking a pay cut, if I could save the soul of a nation by not getting paid, then it’d be my duty to do it.

Don’t call me a hero. Just call me the football fan America needed during this crisis.

And 1% would conduct a poll about absolutely anything.

I gave up the NFL when they became anti-American.

I gave up sports on TV. when I moved to Florida...unless it is a rainy day..

Florida is the sunhine state so there are very few days in rains all day..

In the dry season..Dec to June...your lucky it rains at all

But if we get sports back maybe the idoits who run this state will open the beach and parks..

Can you imagine having kids and no sports for a year..the parents will all be in the nut house.

There will always be a segment that will give up booze and broads for sports. We know who they are.

Some in poll offering to give up that sort of relations——

Muddy Waters song You Can’t Lose What You Aint Never Had

I had money in the bank
I got busted, boys, ain’t that sad?
Oh, you know, I had some money in the bank
I got busted, baby, ain’t that bad?
Well, you know, you can’t spend what you ain’t got
You can’t lose what you ain’t never had........

Maybe this will start the revolution against these tin pot governors.

Disney could go bankrupt if this does not end with no restrictions

Sports have given me a lot of enjoyment over the years.

That said, I really don’t miss them.

Half of the people coming out of quarantine are going to be really good cooks.

The other half will have developed a drinking problem

I wouldn’t even give up a soiled gun rag. That’s about how highly I esteem sports. On all levels.

Alcohol? No problem. I actually swore it off the day ObaMao was sworn into office and haven't missed it since.

Sex? No way. It is the best participation sport on the planet.

Well, the Communism that the NFL openly supports is a step up from these Democrat Governors, but its where the path that the National Football League ultimately leads.

The NFL (which has now forever tied itself to Che Guevara and Fidel Castro) is not something that I care to even have around.

After America goes back to work would be a good time to find something worthwhile to do with the land those empty stadiums are on.

I would give up sports for 3 scoops of my choice of ice cream on a waffle cone.
I would give up watching CNN or MSNBC for half an onion.
I would not vote for Biden for President for a used rubber band.

I dumped television in 1997. I could not have done it if I cared one whit about televised sports. My wife and I enjoy watching the occasional little league game, though.

As someone who can’t stand sports, work has been a literal paradise without sportsball discussion dominating everything.

Reminded me of Rodney Dangerfield on the topic of sex:

“My wife has cut me down to once a month, I’m lucky I know two guys she cut off completely.”

Promises, promises. Easily made, but hard to keep.
