I’ve seen tables flipped, tv sets punched through, furniture thrown. And that’s just in the home.
How does one get to a place mentally where burning and destroying things, over a sportsball game seem a reasonable thing to do?

Should ask somewhere else, you won’t find these people in a federated open-source communist link aggregator website.
More relatable?
Ironically, the only game I’ve ever damaged my own stuff over was a sportsball game.
Most games you fuck up due to your own incompetence, but football games and the like make you feel like you could do nothing wrong in a game and still lose. It’s infuriating.
Not really. It’s just as irrational. Why destroy something because you lost a video game? I’ve been frustrated before due to a game, but never anywhere near frustrated enough to destroy something that I paid a lot of money for and am very happy with. At most I’ll slap my desk or something, but that’s nowhere near hard enough to have any effect.
No
If this is true, then people in your home need some professional help. I have never seen something like that over a videogame

Rage quitting doesn’t have to involve destroying stuff. If you are so much out of control, you need help and I don’t mean that as a rhetoric figure.
I’d say, based on most of the answers here, that the reasons behind the sports scenario (people who are spectators) and the reasons behind the video game scenario (personal failure) are very different.
Apples to oranges.
