The other day everyone was like "i don't understand this at all" and I was like "it's obvious, it's just like if darts was bowling on ice and you did it from half a football field away" and then we just watched one match for the entire night

maybe the drafts save *everyone* eventual suffering?

Yes! But *instead* of the super bowl?

The next time someone says this to me, I am asking them if they would watch the OpenAI Bowl.
