One of my main reasons. I am sick of trying to do something rather important, perhaps studying, doing homework, or anything else and instead of being able to concentrate all I hear from upstairs, or my neighbors is people screaming at their televisions and being insanly loud just because 'their' team scored a point. I'm sorry but I have a hard time concentrating when people in the same house, or next door are screaming "GO GO GO! GOALLLL!!!" so loud that I can't think! I currently live with 3 sports fans who watch the 'big game' upstairs and scream and yell and stomp their feet depending on whats happening. It's annoying, and distracting.
Another big reason is people like you. When you come on here calling us 'gay, wimps, nerds' it's more annoying than anything. You have no proof that we are 'gay' or anything else you call us, you just make these assumptions. Yes we hate sports, deal with it, leave us alone to rant about it in peace. I call you jackasses if your being jackasses... I try not to make assumptions and call you gay or something that I do not know if it is true or not. Alot of the sports haters on this site will call you things like that, but I am rather alright with it since you were the first ones to come on and starting throwing the words around.
Another good reason. I frankly think they are boring as all hell. I would much rather people go out and play some sports then watch other people do it on tv. I find it more boring then soap operas. Sure people should be able to watch what they want, no matter how boring, maybe if they could watch it and be quiet it wouldn't be so bad. Then again when the listings tells me that a show I want to watch is on and I flick to it and its golf or basketball, it really bugs me. They are paid an insane amount of money to do the most pointless things. Also, I do not think sports promote sportsmanship or teamwork. Stuff that happens almost all the time are fights, in the crowd or with the teams, or people using steroids. People will kill each other because they live in different places and cheer for different teams! No, not everyone does, but a majority of them do.
More reasons? Sure I'll keep going... School. The jocks are treated like GODS! Not just by other students, I could handle that, but by some teachers! I've encountered teachers that would break their backs to help the jocks get better grades so they can play in the 'big game' but the other students were not as important to them. I am mad at the teachers for this kind of thing, but I'm more mad at sports. University/College. I really don't think that sports and education should be mixed at all. I think it should be a place of intelligence, and not games. I don't think its right that you can get into a higher learning institute because you can play a sport well. It's just my opinion.
Now if you still insist on replying and making your opinion heard, I have a favor to ask. Please can you use some logic in your replys? No 'your gay', no 'you just wish you could play sports', please no assumptions on stuff you don't know is true. If you want to reply with your opinions that really don't matter to us, cause there is nothing you can say to change our opinions, can at least make some sense? Oh, and mikejones, please nothing about 'banging hot 17 year old chicks' it has nothing to do with anything. No matter if you think it does...
Ok, lets analyze some of these "reasons"
The first one is worthless because thats a personal vendetta you need to take up with your neighbors. Its not my fault, or any other athletes fault that you live next to some losers, but I guess you guys stick together anyway.
The second reason is worthless because you wouldn't be called 'gay nerds' if we didnt get called 'stupid jocks'. The assumptions made are completely spurious because I'm neither a jock, or stupid. I may even venture to say I'm more educated then all of you, and one reason for that is sports, which helped guide me in the right direction away from downfalls like poor health or drugs. Sports have become an icon in this world, mostly because of the competition and friendships that it causes, which is completely healthy. And when people spend their days thinking of reasons why something that keeps people in shape and strong not only physically, but intellectually, it seems weird to the people out there who see nothing wrong with what they're doing.
The third reason is worthless because if you think that sports are boring, that is your personal opinion. Opinions mean shit in arguments because there is no fact behind them except the word of whoever is saying it. And I don't know, nor do I care to get to know any of you, because I think you all have problems bigger then sports, and thats my personal opinion.
The fourth reason is worthless because the 'jocks' are treated well because people like sports. Plain and simple...if a majority of people didn't enjoy sports, then they wouldn't be treated that way. Why is that so hard to understand?
So I won't sit here and call any of you gay, or nerds, or anything, because I don't need to call you that. But if you try to argue with me with worthless arguments like Canadien Hockey Hater did, I will find flaws in your arguments and expose them for everyone to read, and hopefully prove to some of you that you're wasting your time with this hatred for sports. Its not a popularity contest, its not a way to get chicks, its not a way to get treated like Gods...its simply a way to enjoy yourself and keep in shape and potentially live longer by staying healthy. So excuse me, I need to get off my ass and stop typing so I can go whoop some ass in some sweet sports.
