I never understood being a sports fan of any kind. You are making an emotional investment in the outcome of an event over which you have
no control. Why torture yourself?

Watching 300-pound musclemen (who would be better employed moving pianos) crashing into each other is a boring waste of time. So is baseball and basketball. Good gawd, some people even watch golf. The only spectator sport I like to watch is (female) figure skating. It has a certain charm.

Well, that almost sounds like following politics to me. ;)
