Naw see you got the analogy all wrong. Using your example it would be like you worked to get to Brazil (Premier League) thinking you were gonna live it up but once you get there you scraping the bottom of the barrel, the top hoes disrespecting you, and you working 3 jobs just to be there. But the place you left you were getting anything you wanted. Your rivals are in the league you promoted up from.
Yeah, that’s actually a better way of looking at it.
How is it better to go up and get shat on weekly instead of getting some wins one step below? I could see from the owner perspective because you getting more money coming in but for a fan, how does it feel better to lose consistently albeit at a higher level?
Because you may one day crack the top 4 (the champions league being the elite club filled with dimes). Realistically, you need money to get into that club, but once you do, you start attracting the best.
Leicester almost did it this season but they fell at the final hurdle. Being in Europa is still good (smashing 7-8s) compared to being in the lower league and just smashing fat bytches.
Also, you may be scrapping along with three jobs but you know once in a while, you’ll get to meet some dimes (top clubs) and somehow, if your game is tight enough, you end up smashing (getting the win).
The longer you stay there and sustain and build up a portfolio (buying good players), you can move up the social ladder.
