After watching an incredible football game on Sunday between the Buffalo Bills and the Kansas City Chiefs, it made me realize the similarities between Sports and the OSR Style of play.  

OSR Style of Play = Sports (Random Tables & Complete Player Agency) 

Other Styles = Scripted Drama (Railroad & Adventure Path)

This is NOT to be confused with Ben Milton's great comparison of Combat as Sport vs War video:

My take is about the dramatic formula, between a scripted TV Detective Show and a Live Sporting Event, where the sport has so many variables that play out in real time, that the OSR is more akin to sports which provides that special magic of the unknown.
