I guess some of us just can't see the point in spectating, participating yes if you enjoy that particular activity, but to try and piggyback on someone else's glory seems quite a strange thing do do to me. Of course, then there is without the inanity of the abject hysteria that some of these pastimes seem to generate, particularly with team sports which outwardly is nothing less than tribal.Re: Some Sports are for Thugs & Idiots - But Not Mine!

Football seems to be high on Patriotism, supporting the Country, or City in which you (or your parent) grew up.Re: Some Sports are for Thugs & Idiots - But Not Mine!
Throughout my life I've also preferred doing sport to watching it but sometimes I felt so inspired by, say, good tennis matches at Wimbledon that I headed for my tennis club as soon as the match on TV was over. OTOH, I admit having missed out on a goodly number of big time sport events (e.g. football finals) because I wanted to be active rather than a couch potato. I never felt comfy in a football stadium but always had a great time in my tennis club which meant the world to me. Never understood why F1 and motor "sport" in general is considered a sport.Re: Some Sports are for Thugs & Idiots - But Not Mine!
