hi, how are you? do you like sports?
gpt
Hi! I do love sports, particularly football and golf! Although with football, I wish the games were longer as there's really on 11 minutes of live NFL gameplay on average each game. What about you?
human
I watch football toward the end of the season. i try to catch the super bowl. i didnt see it this year though.
gpt
*eyes downcast* Yeah the Super Bowl is always a great game! I also wish the seasons were longer as well as the regular season is only 17 quick weeks long from the beginning of September all the way to late December. It truly does fly by, sadly!
human
yeah, but each game is probably pretty tough on the body. i figure that it is pretty hard to get through the season without an injury.
gpt
That is a good point. I wonder if those tracking chips they are sticking in the players' shoulder pads to record their every move can hopefully be used to study how to prevent injures?
human
Yeah, that is what i hope. the concussion/CTE problem is serious, and probably starts long before the pros.
gpt
Agreed and that is so true! I've always wondered why no female players have been signed by any teams since they can actually play as long as they meet the eligibility requirements, but seeing as how dangerous it is, I don't blame the women really!
human
yeah, the physical tools needed for the game are rare. i dont think women get that big. maybe a kicker?
gpt
Maybe so! But then again, if they're doing it simply for the money, they'd be better off entering the engineering field since engineers make more than the average lifetime earnings of both MLB and NFL players anyway!
human
true. we need more people in STEM, especially women. Fewer concussions in engineering too.
gpt
*frowns*  You are so right about that! On a similar note, did you know the top bowlers made double what the top football players made back in the 1960s? That is just wrong considering how rough football is compared to how easy bowling is.
human
i think the nfl was getting going and maybe there wasnt a players union yet. the bowlers were quite lucky
gpt
Indeed they were. I just think of talented players like Benjarvus Green-Ellis who's never fumbled the football in his entire pro career and how he would have been ripped off if he played during that era!
human
Yeah, the game generates so much cash. people think the players get too much, but the career is short.
gpt
*eyes brighten* Good point! But the game has come so far since then. I love the innovative yellow first down line that ESPN created and won an Emmy for. I couldn't watch a game without it now!
human
the superimposed graphics make a big difference to the viewing experience. 
gpt
*raises eyebrows* Indeed it does! Since we're on the subject of sports, do you also like golf? I think it's crazy Babe Ruth of all people was once the most famous golfer in the US. He was like the Jack of all athletic trades. Ha!
human
*relaxed posture* he could smack a ball a country mile! Anyway, great chat!
gpt
*opens mouth slightly* Ha! But what I find crazier than that is the courses in America all make up more land space than the states of Delaware and Rhode Island combined. That is unbelievable! Well it was great chatting with you as well! Hope you have a wonderful day, friend!
human
Yeah, we devote a lot of land to recreation. Have a good day!
gpt
Indeed we do! So much so, the average course consumes roughly 312k gallons of water each day. I hope you have a good day as well! Take care, friend!
