You know you have spent a lot of time playing that game when...

Its quite funny. Before I got addicted to Championship Manager (the game where you manage your own football club), football was quite simple. You love the club you support, stay glued to the television during the games (better still if you can go the match!), you love it when your team is beating the hell out of your brother's team, throw a fit when they play like idiots and so on!

Then someone initiates you to the game. Whoah! All hell breaks lose! You wonder why doesn't the manager buy a Gerrard or a Henry, give the player with the higher rating (in the game) an extended run in the field. You are GOD! Alas, you wish it was so easy! More and more unrealistic expectations set in and you start getting more and more disappointed! Its quite a riot in the club forums, where people (with the background in gaming) yelling we should buy this guy and that guy. They forget a simple thing. In the game you play with numbers. In real life its all about the money honey! Don't worry, I'm one of them too. And I'll keep playing! :)
