NBA finals.

So last night was game 7; final game of the NBA finals Boston Celtics vs. L.A. Lakers. Maybe because I am not that much of a basketball fan, but I thought the whole thing was soo over hyped. I logged onto my facebook last night around 11:00 pm, when the game was at its prime, and I was receiving status updates like every second from the same people. Like common, seriously no need to basically comment on the game on facebook. If someone was that interested in the game, they can simply open the t.v. and watch it, and if not, just go on the website, watch it live or just watch the scoreboard live.

I understand how passionate people are about basketball, thats like me with baseball and soccer, but I would'nt update every time sweat drops off of Kobe Bryant's face my status. I dont have a problem with people being passionate about the game, what I had a problem was with people updating their status every minute; every time someone got the ball in the hoop and filling up my newsfeed and making my phone go crazy ( i receive text messaging updates from facebook ) The most interesting thing was the fight against celtic fans and lakers fan on every status. Everytime, one of the teams scored points, the opponent fans would make some comments, on how off the jump was, or how bad the defense was, some excuses.

I would just appreciate it if people would keep their passion for sports, off of facebook during games. Like if you are really interested in the game, get off facebook and actually pay attention to the game? And if people want to post their opinions, do it once like " GO LAKERS " or " GO CELTICS. " Is it really necessary to constantly update your status every changing moment of the game.
