I've never given a fuck about sport tbh and never understood why people get so worked up and passionate about team sports in particular. Admittedly many sports folk are physically attractive but that's where my interest ends ๐.
Maybe you have to be more inclined to be tribal in nature for team sports in particular.
Have you ever been in an office and you've scrunched up a piece of paper, aimed at the bin, got it in and others in the room gave a little cheer "shot wscholermann!"?
Well times that by 100. These athletes are the best of the best, on the world stage competing for a medal. Why wouldn't you want to cheer these guys on?
I can honestly say that's never happened to me.
To be clear I don't wish people ill will, I'm just very meh about it.
