I'm fed up with olympics already an they've not even started yet, nothing but sport on telly, all news will be olympic news, I can't wait for autumn and some proper telly. I even wondered what would happen if there were a big terrorist attack and the whole thing had to be cancelled?
I dont' like sport or competition, competitive people scare me, for me theres no such thing as good adreniline so why would I want to get it pumping. Why should I care if someone wins something or not? We get fed the lie that they're doing it for all of us, I think are they really indeed? I think I'd rather have the extra money off my shopping rather than have sports sponsership. I never asked them to do it, nobody asked me if I minded the amount of money that goes into it, the cruelty and even worse I get called a kill joy. Well have they ever thought that not all of us are flag waving sheeple, content to enjoy the spectacle whilst the world goes to hell in a bathtub?
I agree, sport is a ridiculous occupation for grown adults. Why would anyone watch another person play or compete? Where is the interest in it?
Thank you thank you thank you Martin I was begining to feel totally alone iin my exteme dislike of sport.

And all that flying to Paris, while we're ticked off for having a pie; when away to Middlesbrough.

I can't support extremism but I share your dislike of watching the olympics, tennis, cricket, rugby, baeball, hockey, and MOST OF ALL the fecking winter olympics that my O/H loves so much.
I do however have the mental lapses when I can watch a bit of Elvira or Hannah Oberg shooting and quite enjoy the sport as well.
Happy to show solidarity on this point. I am either indifferent to sport, or, if it inconveniences me in any way, hostile. I have no interest in physical prowess, it leaves me entirely unimpressed. I am only impressed by artistic and intellectual achievement.
