Theory: All spectator sports SUCK
Baseball
Nascar
Formula 1
Murkan Football
World Cup Football
NBA
NHL
WNBA
Arena Football
Pro Golf.

all of them. a complete, heartbreaking waste of time. And more often than not, BORING.

Go outside & participate in a sport. Don't sit on your ass ingesting processed saturated fat & crap Murkan lager.

2. I agree.
I have no idea what people find so appealing about watching other people play a game.

They're not your team. You don't know them and they don't know you. Your only connection to them is your wallet.

Their victory or defeat means nothing. It has no importance, and no significance. So why are you cheering?

3. It's entertainment.
Just like movies, music, television, books, etc.

We all need to decompress somehow or we'll lose our minds.

5. there are other ways to be entertained
like maybe start a thread that asserts that murkan football is better than soccer, and soccer is boring, and no one cares...

6. Unfortunately
your theory is wrong :shrug:

Except about golf and car racing. Those suck. And baseball too, to a degree
