When I stopped watching sports you know what happened...? I realized what a colossal waste of time it is. It is a soap opera for men. When you stop watching it you start to feel really silly of how much time you've spent wasting away worrying about the outcome of a game played by other men. How pathetic is that? And so many people consider it a major part of their identity. They hang their hat on the fact that they are a lifelong fan of a bunch of dudes they have never met and never will meet. Nope. Not for me. No more. I'll be the master of my own emotional destiny thank you very much. I'll be the captain of my own adventures, trials, and travails. I'll experience the joys of my own successes and the agony of my own defeats. No more living vicariously through other men's accomplishments. When I look at a sports fan now all i see is a cat waiting for the laser pointer to move again so they can pounce. Live your own life folks!

Playing sports with your kids > playing QB in your armchair.

Yeah buuuut, then you run the risk of creating future sports fans! Lol. I've been getting into hunting and fishing with my boys. I never did it with my dad and it is TOTALLY what was missing from our relationship, and what has been missing in my life in general. But hey whatever floats your boats! Cheers!
