So, in my journey to live stream something, anything, one of the ideas I've developed pans out like this
I have a friend who is 65 named Chuck and he loves football. I dated his daughter and me and her fucking drove each other crazy, but me and Chuck stayed friends. He loves the fuck out of football. Plays fantasy football.
Let's talk about fantasy football. When Chuck started getting into fantasy football, him and his professional friends would rent out a banquet and have an in-person draft and shit was intense. They collaborated on real prizes and it was pretty pro.
I showed Chuck how to use the Internet ten years ago. Since then, I swear the guy knows how to use it better than me. Chuck has set up fucking twenty email addresses which he uses to get around ESPN.com's limit on the number of teams you are allowed to have. I think this limit was 8 last year?
He called me frantic that they had raised the limit to 15 and he felt obligated to manage god knows how many damn teams he has now. All of these teams are named Team Bon Jovi.
And I am not shitting you that 3 out of 4 of his teams make it to the super bowl.

So, Chuck is pretty fucking awesome, but he is pretty much Hank Hill in a lot of ways, especially gamer culture and pretty much everything I've been involved with except pretty much cars.
I'm pretty much the son he never had complete with the disappointment and confusion that goes with it.
Well, I haven't even really approached him with this idea, but I think he'd be fucking hilarious to people on camera especially making fun of me. And especially if I actually sat down without irony and tried to play Madden '16 against people online.
Now, Chuck hasn't seen a video game in probably ten years. Also, trying to explain to him livestreaming and Twitch and things like that, well, that'll take awhile. Remember, he's basically Hank Hill and new things, especially things my generation is involved with, are fucking scary and stupid, probably.
But I can convince him to do anything pretty much. Even if he can't stand it for more than 5 minutes, it'll be 5 minutes of comedy gold.
So, this is an idea.
Would you rather watch this based on the description, or me playing fighting games and making fun of people?
