yeah, i picked up that interest in sport :) nothing wrong with it, i say, as i struggle to regain my ability to have basic physical fitness after decades of wrongdoing towards my body i am down with that, and my current effort is building my ability to sustain sufficient power to ascend 400m of altitude on a bicycle!

as far as nostr goes, it is easy to see if you could get the basic post/comment interface happening, and make a special data type related to schedules for training, competition and leaderboards, integrated together, it would bring a lot of sporty people to nostr

i can imagine it, but i'm mostly a wiring-under-the-board kinda engineer and training/documentation

but i hope you find some way to scratch this itch... there is many niches that nostrt is primed to serve, if enough energy goes to it

we got a golden age coming into view, really, i don't know how to explain how i know exactly, without boring you or going off onto esoteric tangents that seem unrelated, but it is happening, so, i am here rooting for you to get something moving in that direction

i never thought i would be here rooting for a competitive/team sports enthusiast if you'd asked me when i was a 15 year old kid at school where my preferred sport (skateboarding) was practically a crime, but here we are

Those cliches definitely existed, right? I was high school football in Texas - couldn't even conceive of playing tennis until after college. If not playing football, you were lifting and running...to get ready to play football.

Now I go to a high school and see tennis, lacrosse, girls softball, soccer, etc...different world. And hey, isn't skateboarding now an Olympic sport?? Good to broaden those horizons!

yeah, i agree, sport is maybe near among the next most common interests here

diet and fitness are big on the margin, and sport is just over the other side of it, as i see it

really it's just a matter of building tools that enable small scale sports associations and hobbyist clubs to build out their own infra, and off it goes, that's how i see it

it reminds me of the old days when i was a tech, helping small business people run their tech infra to enable their business, that was a staple of my work... that's still important, and i think something that nostr can do too but it's really just a matter of finding where there is enough interest and money to get it to the point where it starts to snowball
