And thus I am totally in the dark about professional sports. I didn't even know the Superbowl was this weekend until I saw a bit on the news about the commercials.
I don't get the addiction to it. It's like porn - would you rather watch someone have sex on TV or would you rather get laid yourself?

hmm yeh good points, but for me when i watch proffesisonal sports, i have played them previously like you and you see just how good these guys are. the leap from school to club is emmense and the leap from club to international/top is twice as much and you see the results of hours and hours, days and days of training flow out into quality.
obviously i dont understand watching small teams with nobodies in. but i watch sports for what people achieve and what they can do and what I could never do.
back to thread - no i wont be watching it as i cant stand the start - stop play in american football.
will be watching 24 probably
