Sports!!

30 05 2009

I just don’t get it.  Why is everyone so obsessed with sports?  I have never been into it really.  I love to play baseball and football, but I have never been able to follow the sport.  I don’t know who’s who, who’s doing what, and what all the hub bub is about.  Does that make me less of a man?  Perhaps, I just have more interesting things in my life that I feel are more important.  I don’t really watch TV or watch all that many movies.  I just don’t find the value in it anymore.  I used to be hooked on watching Pinks and Overhaulin but never sports.  I don’t get it.  What’s the value in spending hours everyday reading the newspaper and watching Sportscenter to catch up on the Sports world?  Someone clue me into this.  What am I missing?

Dan HardyThe only sport that I really watch and get into is MMA.  I love the UFC and WEC and follow it somewhat closely.  I just respect the people in there soo much.  They aren’t just fighters.  They are technicians!  They can go from almost knocked unconcious to breaking your arm in a matter of a second.  That’s incredible.

your tone hear seems almost condescending. Like sports are a complete waste of time. (but then the curveball is thrown in with the MMA finish)
So is your problem with sports? watching tv? playing sports?

I love sports. God made me that way. I don’t think he messed up.

I just don’t get it. Most men have the “sports” bond and I don’t. I’m not against sports, I just don’t understand the hype of knowing all the info and following it, and I guess I feel a little left out. But then again, MMA is about as macho as you get.
