Why Aren't I Interested in Sports?

Tags: sport beer club

I have absolutely no interest in any Sport. Nill. And I feel like a real looser because of it.

I can remember being tormented in Primary School when we would have to go and play T-ball. I could never hit the ball. I hated standing on those bases for what felt like hours on end. Cricket was also equally revolting. Don't even get me started on Cross Country Days (which we just running around the entire school grounds 50 times).

There is just nothing in my genetic profile that has anything to do with sports.

Every single person I know (although, surprisingly not including my Mum and Dad) gets excited to some degree, about a sport. Events are planned, festivities at someone's house with beers and cable, nights at the pub etc. What ever the venue - fun is expected.

Try and try as I might, I can't get in to it. I ask my friends questions. I have intently sat in front of the TV watching some form of ball throwing or kicking - nothing.

I don't even understand what the difference is between the NFL and the ALF? I don't understand what Sydney footy clubs have a location name and an animal name? It only confused me more when people refer to their club as a location or animal? Manly? Sea Eagles? What? Who?

I want to be part of the sporting community. I want to get excited about it. I want to go to the local pub / club and scream at the big screen TV with everyone else. I want to go to the cool 'some random team is playing some other random team' sports shin digs.

I also don't like beer. I hear that beer and sports go hand in hand. Although, I am a girl - so maybe I can get a pass on the beer drinking.

Help?
