If you're looking for a new hobby, I recommend playing sports :lol:

Seriously, taking some LSD and wrestling or playing soccer is good fun, I just dont care to watch others play

I used to play as a kid and all the way up through high school. I'm in my 30's now and it feels like I'm too "old" to get back into playing as a full on hobby. Hiking or some shit like that seems more realistic at this stage of life.

I sometimes enjoy watching UFC or MMA style sports though.




Yeah I'm still a massive boxing fan, and to me that, and UFC/MMA obviously, are waaaayyyyy less of a "game" than a lot of these sports. In fact boxing or the UFC/MMA are not games at all.

They're more of a fight than they are a sport. Fights with rules, but fights nonetheless. And the stakes go beyond the final score of an organized team sport game. You can get seriously fucking hurt, or even die from that shit. Every year in boxing, at all levels of the sport, guys end up in comas and die after fights. I don't follow MMA but I'm assuming the same thing applies due to the brutal nature of it.

And in those sports you're rooting for a particular individual, not a team or a city. So it just feels a lot different to me.

I just mess around with friends so its easy, not joining any leagues and dealing with any real competitiveness

Cant risk breaking my hand boxing, so I wrestle
Dont feel like running a marathon so I play soccer on very small sections of a field like 4ft by 4ft, or 20 by 20.

There was a funny moment where a friend and I were tripping, kicking a ball around our apartment and we had a manic fit of laughter over the scene. Bong in one hand, beer in the other, kicking the ball around nonstop, pretty funny moment.

:shrug:  I'll play hard when I feel like it, or waddle around passing a joint

Is it what's more 'realistic' or what's actually more important to our stage in development?

Fighters in an MMA ring, could be seen as two kids in a creche.

I see people who grow out of sports, developing spiritually, since I believe the sport teams are just physical counterparts of spiritual families and ultimately the need to belong to the source (which is also an authority - which people also crave).

As some people tend to mature spiritually there becomes an understanding that they belong to a big family by default which represents the whole human race and so, the closer they get to 'death' the more obvious and comforting this feeling actually becomes.

The mind no longer feeds upon the I am the best / I am a killer / fighter / I am a winner notion and instead basks in the fruits of what every productive soul is contributing to the same good cause.

I grew up a Detroit fan, so while the Lions are a horrific punchline I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy -- the city otherwise has delivered their fair share of titles since I've been alive.

The Pistons have won 3 NBA championships (89', 90', and 04'), the Red Wings have won 4 Stanley Cups (96', 97', 01' and 07'), and the Tigers won the World Series in 84'. I'm also a University of Michigan fan and have witnessed the football team win a national title in 97' and the basketball team win it all in 89'.

Now yeah granted it's been a long time since I've seen one. The most recent were the Wings in 07' and the Pistons in 04'. Of course it's funner when your teams are winning, but still.

Sports can be great, fun entertainment, but it's just that...entertainment. What I've come to learn (finally) is that it's no different than a television show. Or a movie. It's just entertainment and taking it anymore serious than that is a complete waste of time and emotion.

And this is coming from someone who has been a die hard sports fan for their entire life.

But seriously, the older I get, the more I realize how completely meaningless and ridiculous it actually is.

We (sports fans) let it affect us -- we let a loss from "our" team(s) hurt us. To the point where at best it depresses us, and at worst even cry because of it (I've never reached this point thankfully during my time as a fan, although I have on occasion wanted to break my remote control or even my television).





But for what? First off, it's a meaningless game. It's literally a game for fuck's sake. A game that has no bearing whatsoever on our actual lives. A meaningless game played by men who we have never met, and will never know. We take pride in teams that we have zero part in, outside of watching them and saying "yay" when they score, lol.

And fans who just happen to adopt teams to root for that are traditionally good, look down on other fans who root for lesser teams, as if we had anything to do with those teams being successful. We don't do shit but watch them and yet feel as if somehow we're a "part of the team". Lmao how stupid is that. And so many of us will automatically hate another person who's a fan of a rival team...even though we don't even know that person personally :lol: Not just that but you have countless examples each and every year where fans take it to the next level and literally fight opposing fans, in stadiums or sports bars or where the fuck ever -- just because they happen to root for different groups of multi-millionaire athletes :rofl:

Seriously, what in the actual fuck.

When you really boil it down and truly think about it, and how many billions and billions of dollars worth of revenue annually are profited to team owners and players around the world because of fans of these games...it really and truly is one of the most mind boggling things ever.




Umm being a sports fan is the shit. Im a huge patriots fan but i dont dress in the uniforms or anything..i just watch every game and root for my team.

People who dont like sports are usually feminine or never got laid in highschool..or from Canada

That Cowboys game knocked you over the edge, didn't it?

I get you. Sports are fucking retarded. I'm trying to spend way less time on it. I have no idea why I care so much about it. It's like religion or something. Don't ask why.

For certain types of fans it becomes a part of who you are.

Never been too into watching sports. I'll watch finals and championship games occasionally. Not down to watch a team for a whole season or anything. Boxing and MMA matches if people are ranting about it coming up, otherwise I'm out of the loop and not keeping track.

I like taking LSD and going on bike rides for a few hours. It's a pretty awesome feeling. Running too. In the rain.

Volleyball is a fucking blast on psychedelics.
