International I Hate Sports Club

I've finally come to the conclusion that watching 90-95 minutes of 22 men chase a ball around where often there is no score is like pulling teeth. I am also sick of the bores who consider this overrated game to be the biggest thing in their lives and regard non fans with contempt. Honestly I feel so...

Hi, there is nothing wrong with riding a horse, running, working out, doing a martial art, and most people on here would accept these solo pastimes are good for you, but what hacks a lot of us off is the culture of team sports, where winning is everything and the unathletic kid who is forced to play...

Well showed no interest in the start of the football season in England. I spent the afternoon watching Dr No, a film I haven't seen for years and is pure escapism for two hours. So much better than either freezing in a football ground or pretending to show interest in a radio commentary and Final Sc...

Quite frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn. This is nine months of boredom and hype I can live without and think of how much I will save in petrol and ticket prices by not going. While I am safely indoors with my girlfriend, I no longer have to sit on a hard plastic seat in freezing weather that co...

Hey, I had to do team sports until I was 11 until 16 in England and it left me with a deep distaste for forced team sports, esp on kids like me who had no athletic ability or plainly saw it as a waste of time when they could have been doing something more relevant to their future. Firstly one of the...

Stuff like yoga, tai chi, pilates is far better for your health and makes you a better person than some idiot whose life revolves round the next game and who probably last kicked or threw a ball donkeys years ago, yet believes that because they like football( US and UK) variety/rugby league/ basketb...

Medieval foot combat, where guys dress up and act like Medieval knights, is way better than any mindnumbing team sport. Also it is part of your country's history as well, so serves an educational purpose. Yeah! I have seen a few examples of that on some educational TV programs. You have to design a...

Hello Ex Fan! I'm glad you've found more interesting and important things to do with your time! Funny, isn't it, that the things "socceristas" think gay or nerdy are things that might actually help you learn something or make you use your mind, instead of watching people play a game that ...

Because FIFA is as corrupt as a third world dictatorship, which a large part of its members are anyway. You offer to wine and dine Sepp Blatter in a five star hotel in Qatar and offer him a Mercedes S Class for winning a bid, then he'll take it. It's the same as most of English football is the same,...

It's hard as I know the Socceristas aren't happy. One has even called me a traitor for saying the start of the season doesn't interest me any more and others will probably be displeased that I no longer sit and orgasm over the day's match stats like an idiot( deep down I was wanting to say I found t...

Dude, I am about to tell some of my football fan friends that I won't be attending any games because A I have a new girlfriend who lives 100 miles from me and is very important to me and knows I only followed football to please the herd B The cost of going to a game even in a part of England where t...

Thanks, 1981, but also don't forget some of the fans can be quite stupid, like the idiots who were hooded up making threats outside his house if he left the team. I mean, so what, he wanted to leave the team, is it the end of civilisation? Personally if Wayne Rooney wanted to teach yoga instead, wo...

Excellent article. Being a small man 5 feet even and 128 lbs, most people judge me on sight based on preconcieved notions. Here is what they don't know. I served 20 years in the U S Navy. First in the field of nuclear waheads and prepping those weapons for strike. Throughout that period I was ready...
