Keep a close eye on your cholesterol, Raiders fans. A new study shows that fans of losing NFL teams tend to be more obese than fans of winning teams.
Via For the Win's Nate Scott, we learn of Pierre Chandon, the L'Oreal Chaired Professor of Marketing, Innovation and Creativity at INSEAD Business Schoool, and his study of NFL fans and their chunkalicious responses to defeat.
“One day after a defeat, Americans eat 16 percent more saturated fat, and 10 percent more calories," Chandon writes. "But on the day after a victory of their favorite team, then it's the opposite. They eat more healthily. They eat 9 percent less saturated fat, and 5 percent fewer calories. There was no effect in cities without a team or with a team that didn't play."

Corn Syrup Nation gets fatter, regardless. Americans are content to take the screwing they get as long as college football plays on Saturday, pro plays on Sunday, fake reality tv is on every week day and Taco Bell is open late.
I don’t buy it, either. I lose my appetite when I’m upset.
That’s me, too, LOL
If that’s true, as a Lions fan, I should weight about a thousand pounds by now.
Yeeeesh! I can’t watch another gawdawful offensive series. Guess it’s back to the wing buffet.
Sounds plausible.

I do hear you. They did well in preseason, but of course that doesn’t mean much.
Hope springs eternal
One can only hope:
LOL, true
Some libs and nannies have done away with keeping score at children’s games, as losing hurts their self esteem.
...if we’re not going to keep score at athletic events, then we already have the perfect game for that...soccer...nobody ever scores anyhow...
Yeah, you’re right. Everything is okay. Time to deal with important things like american idol some show about ducks and hillbillies.
Yeah, right, lifelong Lions fans would dispute this.
