Pro sports? To each his own, I guess. They're just not for me. I can always think of something better to do than watch sports...

To me a super bowl is a tolet with arm rests and a magazine rack.

Agree. Also didn't know or care what teams were playing. Have little if any use for the Stuporbowl, or any other professional sports for that matter. Will watch some college football, maybe some of the olympics, and a little F1 racing ,but thats about it.

Here is an example of how much I care about profesional sports (in general).

I noticed the NBA basketball season had started when somebody was complaining about the Blazers not making the playoffs (again).

I realized NFL had started it's season when I noticed some hot chick in a cheer-leader outfit on a Coors Light bilboard.

I had a hunch the Superbowl was on it's way when that hot chick was replaced by a "not quite as hot and a little bit bigger" chick in a cheer-leader outfit on a Coors Light / Superbowl billboard. Not sure why they choose to lable the poor girl as "XL". She was a little thicker than the previous girl, but not what I would call Extra Large.

I found out the NHL had been on strike when I saw a headline that the strike was over.

I think a baseball season happened, sometime. Could be still going, not sure.

Why the hell is somebody paid $1,000,000.00 / year to play "fetch" with a ball?

Professional sports has become nothing more than "thug worship".

You constantly hear things like that sports "star" did commit a few rapes and a murder last week BUT he sure can run!

These thugs are used to sell stupid things to stupid people.

IF the teams would self police and ban these criminals permanently from ever playing anything again I would have more respect for them, but how can you now?

I actually believe that it truly is something more sinister. That these thugs are purposefully promoted to Americans in a social engineering kind of way. "Just ignore what this guy is accused of (ie rapes, robbery, assault, drug abuse etc.) and worship his ability to pass,run, score blah blah blah." The scarey thing is most adults buy into it. And kids do not have a chance against this type of propaganda. It is saddening

I dont pay any attention to the super bowl, not interested

I watched Platoon instead

Generally speaking I'm not a sports fan.

I did watch the superbowl this year because the seahawks were in it and lets face it, that' could be a once in a lifetime event, and everybody will be talking about it for the next week.

I found it entertaining, not something I'd do every week, but once a decade or so it isn't so bad.

Football is also a purely American game, to understand football is to understand American politics as well.

The cheerleaders aren't as pretty for the political game, and instead of running and throwing and catching and blocking the players lie and cheat and steal and manipulate, but it's basically the same thing.

Not a care at all, in fact I had a great time at the outdoors store being able to walk the isles without people getting in my way. The lady at the check out counter actually told me that I just might make it home in time for the game like I actually cared.

The drive home was even better since the roads were almost empty making a usual 2.5 hour round trip on the road almost cut in half

Sooo, who won the game anyways?

A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to
the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball, and others of that nature,
are t oo violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be your constant companion of your
walks.

I also despise all the organized team sports you'll find on TV.

Watching professionals playing for money is pretty stupid. Watching a bunch of local boys (or girls) playing the same game for the fun of it is quite another matter.

It's a GAME. It should be FUN. When the motive is money, the fun is gone and the exercise is pointless. Might as well put a time clock on the entrance to the locker room and start handing out company rules and regulations for everyone to sign and return to Human Resources.

That's me exactly. I don't understand how people can think you're a "gun nut", but have their favorite team's logo tattooed on their arm, decals on their car, team flag on the front porch, etc., etc., ad nauseum.

I'm not against sports, I'd just rather play them than watch.

Seems that every single year someone feels the need to make a thread like this to show how "above it all" they are, and how much more sophisticated they are than the "Sheeple" who enjoy watching football.

During the 6 hours the pre-game, game and post game was on I:

fixed a flat tire
mulched my apple trees
fixed a section of fence
did some reloading
and would have gone shooting, but it started to rain, so
I started a Larry Bond book "Red Phoenix" that somehow I missed.

I have better things to do with my time than watch professional sports.

Yup,

Dont really care for professional sports. High School football is fun and exciting to watch, as they are playing with heart and having some fun. Anything past that is utterly bankrupt as far as having any type of heart and soul in the game of football.

So, pro players are just a crock of crap to me.

But, oddly enough, I dont mind watching a pro hockey game. Meh, go figure eh?

In general, pro sports are the suck in my mind.

Much rather watch a documentary or a movie or play some vid games.

Just my.0002 cents
