Athletes with Glorious Media Rooms
You can't see every game—in every league—in person, even if you wanted to.
So, the next best thing to attending a live sporting event is watching it in HD on the big screen (and these days, televisions are really just different shades of awesome compared to the pre-HD era).
Even if you totally miss the game, ESPN SportsCenter and a bevy of programs are there to make sure you see the highlights.
Considering the swanked-out man caves and media rooms sports fans have dedicated no small amount of time and money into making awesome entertainment spaces, it's no surprise that athletes have done same—and then some.
As much as we want to believe that in a different universe—one where we have the big contract and status as a sports star—we'd be above watching our own highlights...you and I know that's a lie. If you're an athlete scrutinizing or salivating over your highlight reel, then you need the proper, swag-filled media room for the task.
And besides, an awesome media room should be a no-brainer for catching a flick or even just mindlessly watching a Law and Order: SVU marathon.
Plenty of athletes have taken to social media apps like Instagram to show off their glorious media rooms; and it's enough to make a person max out a credit card in a fit of tech-envy.
