I think I could handle a 2 sport addiction, that's not too bad.Originally Posted by Yosemite
- my husband isn't a big sports watcher, but I love watching golf and baseball. He is kind enough to not give me a hassle about it.
Yeah, I do think I'm disgusted by the amount of money these people make. It's ridiculous. It's sad people make more money playing games than teaching children or saving lives or something more worthwhile. (Don't get me wrong, if I were a professional athlete, I'm sure I would feel my payday was justifiedOriginally Posted by Hydroaxe
Even being a man I can't understand how other men get so tied up in watching sports. It bores the freaking hell out of me. I'd rather be playing the sport. I can enjoy watching sports if it is a social thing, but you can guarantee that I wish I was doing anything else but that. I think it's a waste of time to watch them. Of course, some sports are particularly more interesting to watch if you regularly participate in that sport, but even then my interest is limited. You won't find me sitting down to watch softball. I can barely stand riding pine when my own team is playing in front of me let alone watch a bunch of overpaid athletes I don't know. I don't get it.

Amen to that! Teachers, cops, firemen, paramedics...they should be making that money!! They make more of a real difference in people's lives than any athelete does.Originally Posted by Kellyyfaber

Brendan doesn't really care too much about sports. He's actually a lot like Ryan about that! He'll watch it with a group of buddies and be able to talk about it and all that, but if he's on his own it's a pretty rare ocassion to find him watching ANYTHING sports related!!

Eric Is a HUGE sports fan! He's always screaming and yelling at the tv.He watches golf too , and now he's into baseball witch is by far the most boring sport to watch on tv! What I really dont get is why he has to watch sports center to see the post game recap when he's already seen the game! I have to admit I love football and especially loved that the Eagles went to the super bowl last year.Originally Posted by Kellyyfaber
What is it with guys when they're watching sports? It's like my husband is in a trance or something (especially when Sportscenter is on) The house could be on fire and he wouldn't know it until the TV burned down. I never get break because my husband likes ALL SPORTS. He'll even watch......golf. I like sports but I don't get hypnotized by them on TV. Anyone else with sport freaks in your house?? (glad I have you guys to talk to lol!!)
Yeah, Shy scares the cats sometimes screaming at the TV! lol! It's not watching sports constantly that gets me, it's that he has a one track mind a isn't ABLE to pay attention to anything else. Yeah, Shy has to watch the post game thing (and pre game and post post game, etc lol!) He even watches Sportscenter over and over. I like to watch sports--in person. I just don't really get into them that much on TV.Originally Posted by misstorri
