I think the problem with sports is that the community is naturally fragmented by team, so while there may be a decent number of NFL fans around, it breaks down to 10-20 per team, and when 90% are lurkers, it is hard to get any discussion going.
We could try to have a league wide game day thread, but I’m not sure that would help - people would want to talk about the game they are watching, which again fragments the conversation.

I just want somewhere to talk shit to strangers about how bad their team is, while vehemently defending my shitty team
You make a very good point I hadn’t considered. Hopefully we can convert some of these lurkers to comment.
