I'm Male, Straight and I've never given a @#$% about sports. Am I alone on this one?

Question

It's just always seemed like an empty effort to me- especially the amount of time devoted to them in schools. Seriously, how many of the kids on these sports teams are actually gonna go on to become millionaire pros?

Answer 1

I enjoy watching pro sports. I don't think there is anything wrong with you but there is a point to my comment. See it took me awhile to even have interest in watching sports, and the thing was my father took winning too serious. I like watching a good game. It sucks when my team loses, but life goes on right? I'm not going to go on some killing spree or something, it's just how things happen.

Answer 2

sexual preference has nothing to do with that question...

my opinion...

i agree with you. such is an empty effort

my opinion

to allow some odd comfort in something that doesn't require intelligence to understand. an idea developed by people who can't understand more than basic knowledge but realized they can swing around a stick,hitting and kicking and throwing balls around with various weapons into different names for a destination.

quite frankly i am sick of jocks who hit and chase balls for a past time calling people g*y. seems rather cliché. right?

i would say most of the kids chances of becoming pros are...they have a better chance at rolling a 0 on a six sided die.

no you are not alone as my answer stated i am with you

now i get rather annoyed at people who are so desperate for a best answer if he picks you he picks you...

Answer 3

You are normal.

Answer 4

I get called "g*y" all the time because I don't give a **** about sports.  I don't like to play them.  I don't like to watch them.  I don't like to read about them in the newspaper.  Guys like us are rare.

Answer 5

No, you're not alone.

A bunch of grown men, vastly overpaid, chasing a little ball around a field, or bouncing it on a floor, or tackling each other certainly doesn't interest me in the slightest.

Answer 6

I agree 100%. I just finished my LAST EVER mandatory phys ed. course last year and I couldn't be happier. :D

I just hate sports. I hate watching them, I hate talking about them, and REALLY hate playing them.

Answer 7

Your not alone at all man. I don't give a @#$% about sport either. Never really have..

Answer 8

Nope, you're not.

I never cared much for sports growing up, but now I've gained an appreciation for international soccer at least. Still can't stand American football....

Answer 9

no you're not alone, i have 9 brothers and a one of them gives a D@M about sports......

Answer 10

I don't care much about sports. I hate playing them cuz I'm not very good at it. I might watch a game once in a while but I dont follow the teams or the players.

Answer 11

No, you're not alone, but I think you might be missing the point on why kids play them in school.  It's actually fun for some people.  It also gives people something to rally around because it's generally easy to understand at a basic level (i.e. You want your team to get the most points).

People might actually be playing the sports to enjoy them, not with a scholarship or career in mind.

Answer 12
