I'm honestly so thankful for all of this. I used to spend my entire life watching the NFL, NBA, and MLB. I've spent countless dollars on tickets and merchandise. I was devastated when they canceled sports in March. And then...I slowly realized my life was not different in any way. Why the fuck do I care if some multi-millionaire wins a game? Their full-throated support of Marxism just ensures I will never watch another one of their events in my life and happily spend that money on other stuff. Fuck them.
I used to be super into watching sports as well, especially NFL.
When I got into the 'sexual strategy' Red Pill there was a question, "Why are you wasting your time watching other people have fun instead of using that time to do fun things yourself?"
And I was like, well shit, since you put it that way. Took my Sundays and evenings back and my happiness doesn't get impacted by complete strangers winning or losing a children's game anymore.
There are still sports in my life, but it's me and my family and friends going out and playing them. I don't miss pro sports at all.
This is exactly it. I had the added bonus of being a Cleveland fan so talk about a complete waste of time. I was dumb enough to buy into the "you gotta support your city win or lose" marketing. I've played golf this summer more than I have in years. I got some friends together to play basketball who have all given up on the NBA too. It's way more fulfilling.
For me I'm guessing it was all the advertising I was subject to growing up portraying sports as heroic. And at one point it did give me a sense of belonging or community. Just something fun to do with other people when it was actually about the sport. Now it's entirely about cultural Marxism. I don't care to be lectured about how I'm racist the whole game.

I've never been into sports. I've never understood the appeal. If I'm not playing it, why the hell would I want to watch it?

Oh just wait. Now that you don't follow it, you'll feel so out of place when people are talking about it at work!
