      I’m deeply and sincerly indifferent to soccer. But that’s a shit analogy.

        I think it was a joke about knowing you’re going to lose the soccer game, and proceeding to lose. I don’t play soccer either but I can still relate.

          Yeah, maybe. The thing is that in soccer, it’s still a game which both sides can play, even if you’re down by a ton of goals. Yes, maybe your chances are bad, but you still get to play and make meaningful decissions.

          In monopoly, you’re stuck playing a circular version of Chutes and Ladders with no meaningful decissions.
