I like sports, not spectator sports. Sports exist to be played, not watched religiously. It's one thing for you to watch your kid or husband or wife play, sitting down watching a TV show is off putting to me.
When I'm around men that talk sports teams, wear sports jerseys and that, I just kind of zone out. It's just a circus to me. I get that it can be a fun time. I don't get why someone would absorb it (or any fandom really) into their identity. Very strange thing to me.
Also, I'm convinced that all professional sports are fixed and that there's a lot more going on off camera than we think. I think that's true of anything worth a lot of money that happens in the public eye.
