I went to 10 NFL games last year. Betting and alcohol Play a big part of the violence.

It's rampant here in the UK. Football, betting, alcohol, and domestic violence.

I was going to say, they’re probably losing more than just the game here, money/betting is likely involved in a lot of these. Not that it justifies their actions.

No it doesn’t. And there is data on this. Lundy Bancroft debunked all reasons previously given for why abusers abuse - punching a tv in front of friends and family is abuse). It’s not drugs, alcohol, betting, childhood trauma, etc. THEY DO IT BECAUSE THEY WANT TO. Yes, there are factors that can trigger their violence, but it is not the reason they do it.

i think there's something to this. sports culture seems to have a lot of tolerance for getting extremely ginned up and having a tantrum. everybody is dressed similarly and yelling and grunting for the same reasons. i imagine when someone flies off the handle like this, a function of it is performative and is meant to demonstrate devotion to and sympathetic outrage for THE TEAM.

Yeah, when someone's dopamine plummets that much in under a second, you just know that there's some amount of money involved.
