Punching Bag Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Here is something NFL players do that league does not worry about errant softballs and CTE just carpal tunnel syndrome. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000935146/article/battle-royale-why-fortnite-conquered-nfl-locker-rooms Jordan Poyer's offseason routine is best broken down into three pillars. Remove one and his whole day crumbles. First, the third-year Bills safety gets a morning lift in. Next, he returns to his South Florida estate for some light afternoon fishing. Then, Poyer races to his man-cave--a framed jersey and game ball-adorned room of any sport fan's dreams--and boots up a video game that has taken professional football by storm. "(Every day I) get a workout, come home, either go fishing or just come up here and play some Fortnite," Poyer explained in a video from the Bills. "Because I'm the best." Third year? Only 2nd year with Bills and 6th year in NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUFFALOKIE Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 I don't give a crap about his video game habits. Making a priority out of fishing though, makes me like JP more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JinxedBill1 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Well I mean EA ruined Madden so at least he's playing something competitive. Fortnite has become the competitive drop in and play game of the day just as Overwatch and TF2 were. Nothing wrong with a few rounds against randos.

I’ve been getting more involved in esports though work - the money some of the teams make it unreal. Major tournaments have millions of dollars in prize money up for grabs. There are millions of hours streamed on Twitch. The teams are all owned by big media companies and sports teams. It’s surprisingly organized. It’s really pretty crazy. I’m a causal gamer (and, old), so the whole phenomenon seems crazy to me. Still, fun to learn about and be involved with... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FearLess Price Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Its a lucrative market if he hits. Its also just as difficult as hitting the lottery. A great lesson about life, careers, jobs and happiness could come from letting him take a dream job seriously and even the careers that seem the easiest still need nurturing, innovation, and growth to continue to flourish consistently, creativly, or financially.
