Do professional sports interest you?

Post Reply New Topic

I'm not really interested in professional sports, but I try to keep up with our national hockey league scores. I don't like watching it on tv, though.

No

Have been known to spend the weekend watching rugby switvhing from country to country, league to league, even to the extent of watching the round up of the French rugby on the Welsh language channel!

The joys of satelite TV!

Baseball was HUGE in my life for several years, then I just lost interest. Right about at the same age as you, too.

I loved the stats, even though I hate math. I seem to remember odd strings of numbers really well, I'm just not able to do much beyond calculate a tip.

I only liked AL, though, never knew jack about NL. The All-Star game was like watching people play against aliens with their own set of rules.


I swear I knew everyone's batting average, slugging %, who had the lowest ERA from week to week

No, except for tennis and special figure skating shows

I wanted to become the best footballer the world had ever seen when I was a young child. That's because my uncle was a footballer and I loved playing with someone who knew the game so well that he could teach me lots of tricks. I didn't want to become a professional footballer for long, it passed when I realised that few girls wanted to play the sport and that the boys (in first class) were so rude about playing. Kicking, punching, only playing with other boys, nah, I didn't like that.

I take an interest in most sports,especially football (i.e. soccer). It's almost a way
of life in the UK to be interested in football !

I love sports can't take my eyes of it n i also play sport aswell.

When I was 10 I had a huge obsession with football (or 'soccer') but now I couldn't be less interested in sport if I tried.

I'm obsessed with hockey. I played it for years as well as lacrosse and soccer.

Not really interested in it.

I don't mind watching boxing...but it's the only sport that I can stand to watch.

The only sport I ever got into was the UFC recently and have been ordering events and even attending small parties on the other side of town during these events. Other then that looking back I never could get into anything, I enjoyed playing some sports with kids in the area afterschool or whatever, even sometimes in school, but thats about it.

I'm gonna have to say no on this. I do occasionally enjoy watching professional figure skating (I was a skater for many years) or the occasional baseball game (in person, not on TV) but otherwise I really couldn't care less.

I have to say I am not sure, because I don't so much hate sports, as ignore them. I like rugby, because I used to play, and I tried to get into hockey but the matches are so long and I have things to do. I too am fan of wrestling, but SKY changing their rates will put a stop to that very soon. Shame. The writer of my signature, Mitch Hedberg, said that he didn't like sports, but he liked Gatorade, was that allowed? Or does the bolt of lightning mean no? And he also said I like sports. s**t, no I don't...

When I was in my 20's I decided that Professional Sports was not something I would support in any fashion.
I'd think to myself about how these guys were making millions to "Play the game they loved" while other people were starving working their asses off. And then they'd strike so they could make even more. To me it was the dumbest thing I'd ever heard of that people could care so much about a team, but could't give a second thought to their fellow man.
This is just my opinion. However unpopular it may be.

I wish that your opinion was more popular.
