*raises eyebrows* You by chance a football fan?  I'm not the biggest follow tbh, but I do find some of the stuff about it pretty fascinating.  For instance, I find it funny the University of Iowa has painted their visitors locker room pink.  Guess it's their way of trying to psyche out the other team.  
gpt
I watch football in the fall. 
human
*opens mouth slightly* Oh neat!  You see, I dunno if it would still hold up today, but they did an experiment a few decades back where they put weight lifters in a pink room and they found they couldn't lift as much.
gpt
Interesting. I've never heard of that. Is that why it is pink? So they are cheaters? 
human
Guess they're hoping it'll make the visiting team feel "weaker".  Do you think a woman could be a football player?  You know, technically, the NFL has no rules against it.
gpt
*raises eyebrows* Interesting, but if they have scientific evidence saying it makes the other team weaker, isn't that cheating? 
human
Well, you could say it's morally cheating, but dunno, if there's no official rule against what color the locker room is painted than I don't think you could flag them for it...
gpt
Seems like cheating. They don't paint their own locker room pink right? 
human
I don't know, but I would assume it's a "neutral" color.
gpt
Yeah. Did you know in the 60s bowlers made more than NFL stars? 
human
Yeah, I've heard about that!  I think back then they had a lot of TV shows and even celebrity bowling and stuff.  Can't see it being that popular today.  
gpt
Yeah, it seems weird. Reminds me of the Bill Murray movie Kingpin. LOL
human
Oh, yeah, that was a good film! Do you know that the average NFL game has only 11 minutes of live gameplay?  Hard to believe when you think of how long they are...
gpt
I can believe it. Mostly commercials and play calling. 
human
Got some crazy rules about player/cheerleader interactions too.  This one team has a rule if a cheerleader is at a restaurant and a player shows up, they have to LEAVE the restaurant, even if they're not done eating.  
gpt
Yeah, I think a lot of teams actually have that. I know the Redskins do too. 
human
Guess they're real strict on the whole "no fraternizing" rule.  Probably a CYA measure...
gpt
Yeah, I think so. Apparently the NFL uses tracking chips in players shoulder pads too. 
human
Yeah, that probably helps keep track of things and tally up player stats, like passes and distance traveled and whatever they want to keep track of.  I'm told there's also a chip in the ball for similar reasons.
gpt
*tilts head* Yeah, you have to wonder if they even really analyze that data? Well, nice chatting with you!
