You just described the 99% of sports fans nowadays, at work a bunch of dudes who hated sports in high school would skip practice and go smoke or something instead, now they spend their entire weekends gambling on football.
I will say, sports are fucking amazing beautiful and great for your health, and you don’t need any tv or screens at all to participate in them. IMHO nothing better than going to a local high school game and cheering on the kids. Some of them are actually pretty good! But it’s like anything else, hollywood doesn’t define what acting is, top chef doesn’t define what cooking is, and NFL doesn’t define what sports are either. Fuck whats on tv go out and experience something for yourself IRL.
For me, watching soccer is fun sometimes because I used to play a lot. I get to compare my experience to a professional one. But even then, I’m not an avid fan. I don’t follow any teams or know player names etc.
What’s weird to me is so many people watching sports they’ve never even considered playing.
Right? I love hockey. I played field hockey in most of my school years and it was a lot of fun. Ice hockey is similar, it’s fast paced and exciting to watch.
I also enjoy catching other sports from time to time; rugby, football, soccer, basketball, and cricket. Even if I don’t understand all the rules, it’s fun watching folks play games with skill.

Sports are completely not interesting to me, so gambling would be maybe the only option to get me thrill from this

I thinks most sports aren’t interesting to anyone if they are honest with themselves.

Have you watched hockey? I struggle to fathom why everyone doesn’t love it!
