I’ve seen tables flipped, tv sets punched through, furniture thrown. And that’s just in the home.

How does one get to a place mentally where burning and destroying things, over a sportsball game seem a reasonable thing to do?

    And then to answer your question I don’t think it has much to do with the sport itself.

    To think of another example, I’ve seen a lot more violent anger in living rooms triggered by a video game than a sporting event.
