Form: Short Note

If you see something wrong, please help me. More editors is better. As you probably can see I’m extremely prolific at the cost of … well, lots of error between the keyboard and the chair.

—“CURT: WHAT’S YOUR POSITION ON SPORTS?”—

I don’t **follow** any ‘sports’.

I only watch american football. I actually prefer college because it’s less predictable, more ‘realistic’ (and faster). I don’t care who is playing. I just like to watch ‘the legions’ battle it out.

I have a lot of respect for rugby. The only athlete I would want to be myself is a rugby player. That’s manliness in my world.

I wrestled a bit so I find that interesting, and I do enjoy boxing and mixed martial arts as well. I usually watch most of the MMA events at some point – usually in a binge or with friends.

I have a lot of respect for rock climbers, and mountaineers, and the very high risk people who do things I wouldn’t dare. I don’t really consider this a sport, but I gotta respect those guys, all of them.

GAMES:

I can understand soccer, basketball and hockey, but I wouldn’t watch them, and pretty much consider them kid’s games.

Weakly competitive games like cricket and baseball (games of errors) don’t interest me, although I am willing to play them for social events.

CASUAL GAMES

For recreation with friends at parties and such, I enjoy casual volleyball and badminton on occasion.

The vast majority of individual ‘sports’ and in particular golf, are… nice means of staying fit, but otherwise uninteresting.

VERY CASUAL GAMES

I use the range occasionally to keep my reflexes fresh. I like billiards

( I was in chess club and quit once I realized it was a game of errors, just a matter of heavy investment in time without economic reward, and was not that useful in the real world since the whole point of the real world is to rewrite the rules in your favor.

I like chess, checkers and cards as something silly to do while having coffee, tea or drinks with friends.)

BUT… LET’S BE SERIOUS

To simplify it: War, politics, Women and Art basically interest me more than ‘sports’. They’re just substitutes for those people who can’t get the good stuff. 😉

So I spend my time on war, politics, and women.

How is that? lol
