One thing I’ve never been a fan of is the word “expert”. We hear it all the time, in whichever game we are following. Be it the end of a quarter, a half time period or a timeout, we are passed over for a quick word from our “experts”.
To me there are no experts. Everyone sees the same game differently. It doesn’t matter if you’ve been following your chosen sport for a week, a year or for decades. You take what you want from it, you see it your way and you draw your own conclusions.
I am quite positive that I can have some strange views about happenings within different games. It has been stated to me. But I never thought that any of my ideas where that much of a reach that some might think I am simply spamming or fishing (God knows there are a lot of them kind of people out there). I’m pretty sure I can back it up and though I can (and more than likely will) argue it out to the bitter end, trust me, I value everyone’s opinion.
So yes, while I know that I have quite a good grasp of most sports, I am self-aware enough to realise that I am far from an expert. As is every other person that you might see on the TV, read on social media, or listen to down the local pub.
