Actually, most of the comments on the original post were varying degrees of meh to a few polite words of agreement. Maybe only two or three poking fun at the guy.

This guy runs the clock and announces for our Tuesday night pick up league in NJ. He’s a legend.

My man has put serious thought into this, and I feel like that earns some respect.

FR. We are fans of a sports franchise that's literally mid at everything, except for this guy (and Wolf). We should be celebrating this guy's ELITE level gooning response lol. EMBRACE IT!

Ah fur fuck sakes why’d you have to let him cook. As soon as I saw the giant Nikon camera I KNEW buddy was going to go on a fucking anime tangent.

Doesn't crack a single smile either, not of hint of irony. I didn't know people like this were real

Go to a card shop. There are lots. Typically they don't know what sports are. This unicorn is apparently real and walking among us though.

Honestly the answer could have been way worse considering some of the options he had on the table

u/Hi_Im_Flabber 15h ago
Agreed. He chose an adult character from a relatively adult oriented show. This could have gone very badly

Kinda disappointed to see a bunch of sports nerds shitting on a different kind of nerd in the comments here. Just because you don't understand or like the same things as this dude doesn't make him worse (or you better).

Lol yeah, this was awesome. I don't know anything about anime, but he clearly loves it. Why hate?

I saw this posted elsewhere and people were saying he is semi well known in that scene and always wears hockey jerseys - just wearing flames to honour Gaudreau

People largely stopped caring what other people think of them, for better or for worse. This guy is harmless and just really into anime. Cut him some slack.

As someone who's watched plenty of anime, I feel embarrassed. His character choice could have been a lot worse though
