Why don't you like sport

[Pomniman]

This seems like a half-assed attempt at aping Ghostler's anti-millennial diatribes. At least he gets paid for his bait.

Is it just me or are sportsball commentators all autistic as hell?

 

[AgriDrThunder]

I like sports but why would I want to discuss sports on KF? There are better places for that.

This is a place for maladjusted weebs to laugh at slightly more maladjusted sometimes weebs.

There is a surprising amount of autism just beneath the surface in sportsball. The idiot-savant who's memorized baseball statistics is a true meme.

Plus everyone is identified by numbers and positions

I don't watch football (the real kind, not "footy"), but I do follow the results and some forums. This is because I love failure. I love seeing the bad decision and bad thinking that is obvious to everyone but the fans. The Redskins RGIII story-arc is what got me into it. I'm optimistic that the Ravens will produce more of the same soon, though I may have to be patient. I'm also really enjoying the Cowboys this season.

Because it's boring, it's completely boring, who cares?

I need my entertainment to have story, characters or at least some sort of setup or pretense, some sort of theme that relates in at least a vague way to real life.

Like say Chess versus Checkers, Chess has the theme of war, checkers is just red and black circles, I'd rather play Chess any day.

Basically there needs to be an answer for the "why?" of what you are doing, why are people trying to get the ball from one side to the other? Dunno lol.

At least with something like Chess you can say it's a "war", at least with old school video games you had "rescue the princess" or "kill Dracula" setups, there has to be a "why" otherwise it just feels pointless to me.

No one wants to hear the autistic ramblings of dart competitions. Could change it to find the bat shit insane people in sports/Cross fit.

sports are only entertaining when the players are fighting each other

What if I told you that there are sports where the goal is to defeat your opponent in combat?

Because I'm not a fucking low iq mutant

My condolences nigga, the world made it all too clear low iq is one of the predicaments of survival

I've looked into this and it turns out that the Kumite isn't real and that Jean-Claude is just some Belgian cokehead. Sure we have bumfights, but unless we hold them in an ancient Asian temple what the fuck is even the point?

I don't mind watching basketball or hockey. Used to play hockey when I was younger. I'm just not terribly into it anymore. I don't care if I have to miss watching a game. It's not something that dominates what my friends and I talk about. It's something I can take or leave at this point. Don't dislike it, but it no longer holds the same interest as it once did.

The one exception is I fucking hate watching football with people because without fail, every damn time the room turns into a gathering of screeching, shit flinging, hootin n hollering autists. There's getting excited during a game, but football fans dial that shit up to 1000 and go full re.tard.

 

[Pickle Inspector]

I watch some sports casually, I just don’t have much to say on the matter.

Snooker is relaxing to watch though but I don’t think it’s very popular outside of Britain.

 

[The Reaper]

Because it was called Hulkmania... I thought it was only about wrestling and I would be bullied by conversing about alternative sports.

 

[Red Hood]

My sport of choice is underground kickboxing tournaments, but only when the athletes are motivated by revenge.

 

[Idiotron]

I'm a martial artist, dancer and sort of a bodybuilder (like to have good muscle definition, don't like to gain size and weight).

I love competitive street dance, especially break dancing. Been doing it for almost 20 years and I kick some serious ass. I love competing but also watching it. I can talk about it for days but I'm not sure anyone else here is interested in it. It's going to be in the 2024 Olympics so it will be an official sport soon.
One of the biggest and most prestigious 1 v 1 competitions happened last week. We can talk about that if anyone wants to. Here are some highlights from the event:

As for more traditional sports, I like watching women's MMA and gymnastics. HOT.
Watching dudes just doesn't do it for me.

Every sport with "ball" in the name is a massive NO for me. Hate that shit.

 

[Pitere pit]

I don't like sports that much. However, sometimes I can go to a bar with a friend and watch some football/basketball match when our national team is playing. I had a blast watching the world basketball cup final with my family and once in a blue moon I can watch a tennis match.
Sure sportfags can be very autistic but sometimes, you can have a good time watching it with the correct people, you know, like friends or family but with no sportsperg, they ruin a watch party with their presence.

 

[Varg Did Nothing Wrong]

Bad comparison. A&H is a news board where brand new shit gets posted every day. There's nothing to talk about every fucking day in regards to sports.

 

[No Exit]

I had the same issue when I looked for an NBA thread.
From my brief glimpse it looked like the Hulk board was more like /fit/ than a real sports board.
