As of late, there have been more and more sports that are rising to popularity, however most if not all of them suck. While there is occasionally a moment where sports are “entertaining,” this isn’t often and it usually happens when someone is injured and/or there are fights on screen.
While there are many people who “like” sports, very few of them know anything about sports. When interviewing some people about sports the majority of people say they “Just like seeing their team win,” and that they don’t actually know anything about the sport except that “the points go up” for their team and they “feel happy”.
Another reason to hate sports is that there are few if any sports that you don’t get hurt in. Whether it be physically or mentally, someone walks away damaged. For instance, I was playing chess and after 90 excruciating minutes, my opponent checked me, leaving my spirits and dignity in shambles. I proceed to punch them 57 times in the chest, leaving their spirits in shambles too.
To further the claims about how terrible sports are, whenever football season comes around, everyone at just about every restaurant starts fighting and betting on what team will win. Which is bad because when there are fights I get really sad and have to step in saying: “STOP FIGHTING!!!” and then everyone gets upset at me for interrupting the game.
If you’re still on the fence about how terrible sports are, just look at anyone who plays in them, sure they look like they’re having a great time but when it’s professional, they’re paid to act happy about the sport they’re playing. If you look at someone who isn’t playing professionally, just look at how much time and effort they have to put into participating, honestly it looks like a hassle and like they’re being forced to participate.
If we look at the facts, we can see that you aren’t really there for the players, you’re there for some funny commentary or the mascot. The one reason I enjoy seeing football games is because I get to see people like Friday Lee out on the field hyping people up and smiling. I know that I’m personally there to see Lee on the field being a cheerful guy.
No matter how you look at it, it’s plain and simple to see that sports just suck. If you think that you actually enjoy sports, you’re probably lying and or faking it. It’s just like how there are no actual aliens, there are no actual sports fans.
