Engineers hate sports. They hate them so much that company off-sites are planned to avoid mandatory activities requiring more physical exertion than a trip to the break room. This hatred has been with most engineers for most of their lives, probably due to a combination of high school and a practical lack of gross motor skills.But then there's Foosball. Not only does it exclusively use engineers' college-hardened fine motor skills, it also attracts coworkers and classmates who actually enjoy sports, namely Europeans and Central/South Americans who grew up in cultures devoted to its field-based cousin. It's this black and white cookie of the sports world that brings engineers and athletes together as equals in competition.
