I hate to sound like such a nerd but yeah, Sportsball is incredibly fucking boring to watch.
If I'm going to watch something I want it to have story and characters, if I'm going to experience a sport or a game I want to actually play it, I can see Sportsball actually being fun to play, but it's incredibly boring to watch.
I compare it to something like chess, I find chess fun to play, I'd imagine it's very boring to watch a chess match though, or golf, I've been golfing with my grandfather before, where I was mostly caddy (but took a few swings) and that was fun because I was actually there on the greens and participating, not watching it on TV, which I imagine would be very boring.
I also like to play golf video games, but again, that's playing it, not just watching.
I just don't really get the appeal of sitting and watching Sportsball and it is weird that it's something so many people are
really into.
They watch the worst shit on TV.
Network dramas and sitcoms are mostly lame, reality TV is almost entirely pure garbage, it's insane that so many people aren't bored to tears by something like that, it's not too different than Sportsball.
In the case of reality TV so much of it is simply an excuse to watch morons argue and fight with each other, which started with Jerry Springer, why is watching morons argue and fight with each other supposed to be interesting? It's boring at best and irritating at worst.
I'm not saying I'm someone that likes to sit around and read classic literature, there's plenty of pulpy media I enjoy like fanservice laden anime, but in that case there's simply more energy to it, the anime character designs themselves, the sexy fanservice, it's certainly more interesting to me than watching a bunch of sweaty dudes chasing a ball around.
Probably the most normie friendly media I do like are travel shows, but it's not like that's something I watch all of the time, I did also enjoy Late Night With Conan O'Brian if that counts.
Call of Duty and Madden, for real, why are you even buying consoles if you're not buying Waifu Fantasy VII Remake
The "Call of Duty and Madden" type of gamer, ugggggh.
Not only do you have to be kind of braindead to be happy playing basically the exact same game year after year, but I feel like it's those kind of gamers SJWs are talking when they get up on their soapbox and talk about "toxic" gamers but paint everyone else as being like, I'm just a guy who likes his video game waifus, I'm not calling anybody faggot on Xbox Live.
