for the love of the game

Why would you keep playing a game you didn’t love? 

Well, probably because there’s a reason you have to. Bills to pay. Confrontation to avoid. A life to live and a reputation to upkeep.

In each instance, behind the thing you don’t necessarily love, playing the game, is a thing you do love, or a person you love, a reason to keep it all going.

So even if you don’t love the game, you do love something the game enables you to love.

Which sure sounds like loving the game with extra steps.

Thank you. Let’s have a great day.
