If I could forget what sports even are and be able to live life without ever hearing it mentioned, seeing it mentioned, or seeing any commercials for upcoming games or tournaments, I would be so happy.
I fucking hate sports of all kinds. In all contexts. It's fine if others like it, but don't say shit about them around me, I don't wanna hear it.
Even as a kid when I went through a phase where I liked them for a couple years, people would start talking about the specific players, and I could just be bothered to care. It just felt like reading the credits of the names of extras in a boring movie. Even if I liked a team, the players felt like they were always switching teams and moving around, so liking the players just seemed like a waste of time and getting attached to drama.
I just don't get the appeal at all. Like some sports should just not be watched by anyone. Some I can see the entertainment value in watching if you don't really care who wins. But other sports are just plain boring unless you actively play. Like golf. There is no good reason for anyone to watch it (ESPECIALLY on TV) at all. It's too slow to be interesting, and you can't really see it happen since watching a tiny ball is just impossible.
Anyway, make all sports content in all mediums opt-in.
I feel like people like sports because they give them an opportunity to act obnoxiously in public. Like, if someone stands up and yells in a restaurant, it's definitely some sports obsessed dude who wants some attention. I agree with you. I never want to hear about any sports again ever.
