The Official Fear the Sword Drinking Game

Because, let's face it, you have to be drunk to enjoy the Cavaliers at this point

Saying that this has been a rough season is a bit of an understatement. Thankfully for every writer here at Fear the Sword except for Conrad, we're of legal age to enjoy an adult beverage or two during a Cavs game, which makes things a bit more tolerable. Not all the way, but it helps a tiny bit. So, in the spirit of good fun, I thought I'd share a little drinking game for the Cavaliers. Obviously, drink responsibly and all that jazz. Don't be a dumbass.

Without further ado:

  • Drink if: Dion Waiters takes an ill-advised long two instead of passing to an open teammate
  • Modifier: chug if that teammate happens to be Kyrie Irving
  • Drink if: Omri Casspi takes the court
  • Modifier: chug if Luke Walton is also out there
  • Drink if: Daniel Gibson gets injured
  • Modifier: chug if Anderson Varejao gets injured
  • Drink if: the refs don't call a foul for Dion Waiters while driving to the rim
  • Modifier: chug anytime he blows a dunk
  • Drink if: Byron Scott keeps Kyrie Irving out until the last six minutes of the fourth quarter
  • Modifier: chug anytime he sees no playing time in the fourth at all
  • Drink if: Tristan Thompson hits that nifty little hookshot he's been making recently (got to be optimistic, you guys)
  • Modifier: chug anytime he gets blocked by the rim (also got to be realistic, you guys)
  • Drink if: Alonzo Gee turns the ball over while on a fast break
  • Modifier: chug if he passes out of a fast break

And finally, a rule that you should follow only if you're really asking for trouble:

  • Drink anytime that Dion Waiters retweets a compliment on Twitter
