Professor Peter Dalton, who by the way supports Newcastle, has been studying football and happiness. Using an app called Mappiness, his team asked fans to rate how they were feeling out of a hundred before and after a game. They analysed two million responses from 32,000 people.

This is probably the most comprehensive dataset ever collected on happiness. You're twice as unhappy when your team loses as you are happy when your team wins. On average, it makes us sad and on the face of it, it's (a) pretty irrational thing to do - to be a football fan. It doesn't make sense, you'd be better off doing something else.

“這應(yīng)該是目前關(guān)于幸福研究收集最全面的數(shù)據(jù)集。當(dāng)你的球隊(duì)輸球后，你會(huì)比在球隊(duì)贏球時(shí)傷心兩倍。平均而言，足球讓我們感到悲傷，而且從表面上看來(lái)，成為一個(gè)足球迷是一個(gè)非常不理智的事情。這么做沒(méi)道理，你還不如去做其它事情呢?！?/p>

Football fan
You're always hopeful that your team's going to win and you go with the people that you know – you’ve got friends that go there. Almost like family, we are, you know. And that's what you enjoy. We enjoy the day.
球迷
你總是希望你的球隊(duì)能贏，你和你認(rèn)識(shí)的朋友一起去看球。我們像一家人一樣。這正是讓我們喜歡它的地方。我們享受這一天。
So even if on average football makes us sad, there is always identity, family, hope.
因此，總體來(lái)說(shuō)，即使足球讓我們感到悲傷，這里總會(huì)有身份、家庭和希望的存在。
