I keep changing my mind. I've had no interest for the last year and a half unless you count skateboarding, and not the competitive kind, unless you count SKATE (like HORSE in basketball). I used to watch all of it except for **** like golf.

See how this captures the excitement of sport. You have momentum going one way and it totally switches and flips the other way. That’s exciting.
Sports are all about capturing the human struggle to survive and succeed. So no, all sports are not boring. But some are harder to appreciate. Like Olympic weightlifting - I have no idea what I’m watching. I just know the weights are heavy and that’s impressive in a primal sense. Maybe a better example is golf. If you don’t play the game, there’s no way you’re gonna appreciate a good golf game.

I wouldn't say the greatest, but better than Americans think. Here, it's often seen as a soft, suburban sport kids play. The term soccer mom comes from this.
I know like one other guy locally who watches it. We used to play FIFA on Xbox before he got busy with the military. We used to make fun of the British announcer lol. I love the various British accents, but they sound kinda silly to us sometimes.

"We used to play FIFA on Xbox…"
Wow!
That is impressive compared to real players actually outside and playing it!
How in the **** is that supposed to be bragging rights and fit in anywhere with your very own conversation that you brought up?
You have any idea how retarded you sound bringing that up?
