Why is Netflix Trying to Get Me to Like Sports?

It can be difficult for introverts to get excited about sports. Large crowds and hostile competition tend to deter those who would rather curl up by the fire and get lost in a good book or an easy TV show. With the rise of streaming services and the gradual fall of network television, Sports networks have begun to compensate by making their games accessible via streaming. Thursday Night Football was available to stream on Prime Video last season, and Apple TV+ is offering virtual league passes for Major League Soccer for the current season. Netflix, however, is taking a different approach to the world of sports.
