Clothing with sports’ logos
Just buy yourself a sports’ shirt of a popular name. In football, the god’s Ronaldo, in Basketball, Lebron James, and cricket, let it be Afridi. Wear that shirt on and tend to be like a sports enthusiast.
Speak shit out of a popular story
Learn about a trending topic of discussion regarding the sport and read any random review regarding that topic. Start making your own comments. Everybody else will just give explanations no matter they agree or disagree!
Give Up
