They do, but sports stars/commentators use it because its generally a common expression.

I understand where you are coming from 'Nova, but if you'll read the first part of my post, I am doing it mainly to increase my own skills and learn software I have that I rarely use.
If this benefits the fed, that's great. This is why I am making the images available. Eventually, I will probably incorporate them because I will have already done the work to make them. Icing on the cake of roleplays I already know to be good, although there is always room for improvement...I mean, I did lose the first match afterall...
No, this is purely a fun thing, and I just wanted to share the wealth. If you want to use them, be my guest. If you don't, then don't.

I getcha. e-fedding does provide a good opportunity in that respect. I know a few people who've picked up useful skills from fedding. How many e-fedders would have learned HTML and CSS if they'd never got into the game? Great way to perfect your skills. However you have a hard time explaining your hobby if you try to use it as a portfolio ;D |

Actually, most of the employers I have spoken to preferred me to use my hobbies as it served two functions. One was to show my skills, but the other was to display my hobbies and give the employer a better view into who I am as a person.

I tend not to talk about wrestling or e-fedding to anyone I want to impress. Maybe attitudes are different over here, but anyone over the age of 12 who likes wrestling (nevermind pretends to be one on the interweb) is viewed as a bit of a tit.

Man. the UK is screwed up. I'm afraid they'd call security on me if any prospecitve employer called me a tit. I am a web designer, so people expect me to be on the internet all the time. The wrestling thing they wrinkle their nose up at or they tell me "It's fake" like I'm some mark who believes everything on TV is real...
To which I have come up with a fancy comeback. I ask if they watch reality TV, and when the answer comes (which is usually yes) I tell them that it is fake and how producers set up situations and edit videos to make one person look better or worse for ratings. It's no different than a promoter who promotes one wrestler over another.

I say that about anything. "What's your favoritre show?" You know those people aren't real right? They're just actors portraying a story. Ppl HATE that for some reason.
