Sorry guys, I don't care about spring training. I like seeing highlights though, but if Shitty Astro Pitcher X gives up 9 walks and schfourteen-teen thousand runs per inning, it doesn't matter.
So instead of posting more crap about what pisses me off or what songs I like right now or some other mindless babble.....
WHAT THE HELL IS THERE TO KEEP UP WITH IN FEBRUARY-APRIL "DEAD FUCKING ZONE OF SPORTS"
Basketball... I can't watch it. The pros try to make it interesting, yet everytime I hear "Well he's SoAndSo player, he is going to get that call" it makes me want to puke. Why? College ball is a little better I suppose, but I can complain alot about that too. Maybe I just don't like basketball.
Does anyone watch hockey? Can you watch hockey? I've only seen it at bars or highlights on espn. I could get into that, but it would take a full season for me to "get" the game.
I guess the tournament can be fun to talk about / have an office bracket. Hurry up with that though, Ive heard more sports talk radio about what hairspray the guys use or what color their car is... terrible.

My current job doesn't do much in the way of tournament brackets. It's a damn shame.
I do like basketball, but I've scarcely watched any this year - college or pro.
I try and branch out in sports, but I can't get in to hockey. Even with the fighting. Too cold. I'm never gonna play it. Too many memories of the Mighty Ducks.
I've made an honest effort to try and watch soccer, and, this from a baseball fan, that's a boring fucking game right there.
I've also had trouble getting into MMA. It seems white-trash and gay. I'd kinda like to try judo, though. They're wearing clothes (as opposed to the shirtless, sweaty, groping of MMA) and you throw people to the ground. Seems fun.
I wish they'd show rugby on tv. I feel like I could get into rugby. It has the satisfying violence of hockey. But less cold oriented.
I like MMA, but I like it in the form of once a month budlight-infont-of-the-tv yelling and watching people bleed sort of thing. The watching the reality shows and keeping up with guys names? Nah.
And those guys can take those Affliction shirts and shove them up their ass. These guys are no better than those fuckers that wear that blue Pat Green shirt (circa 2004). I KNOW you know what im talking about D. Of course, they may be the same type of people, so that may not even be an insult to them.
Basketball is not at all satisfying. I loved it so much when I was a kid (Akeem/Hakeem!!), but now I just don't get what's interesting about it. I wish my office did tournament brackets because UT always sucks in the tournament (if they make it) and I need a reason to watch Davidson, Butler, Gonzaga, and Oral Roberts.
Soccer... world cup only.
Hockey... NHL finals are the only exciting games.
Nascar... last hour of the race is watchable, sometimes.
MMA... is that a sport?
MMA... is that a sport?
Nah, my brain doesn't comprehend it as a sport in the tradition sense. It's nice to get a group of friends together and drink and watch blood fly.
The die hards are annoying.
Me: Man that was an awesome flip around the back kick blah blah blah
Diehards: Its called a so-and-so and his ratio of landing that is blah blah percent.
Me: I'm going over here now...
/you can say that about baseball statnerds, but statnerds are awesome!
seriously, you can't get excited about this Rockets/Jazz game tonight?
Sure when it's Rockets/Bucks or Rockets/T-Wolves or Rockets/76ers or Rockets/Clippers or Rockets/Bulls I'm not going to get excited.
And for hockey, if we want to get into it, we would have to back a team for the whole season. And that season would have to turn out like the 2004 Astros season where its super-fucking exciting, and that is not going to happen.
Rockets v. Jazz! Tonight! Thrilling regular season action! Half the white men in the NBA from Mormon-land battle it out with a ridiculously tall man from China and a bunch of players you've never heard of for 5th-ish place in the Western conference! Nothing on the line! Also, Shane Battier is there! Who will prevail in this battle for FUCK ALL!
Getting into hockey now is like taking up smoking at age 40. It's just weird. That ship has sailed.
Karl Malone is white on the inside, but John Stockton is so white you can see his blood vessels through his leg hair.
Also, I like 3-pointers.

Mrs. Smith #5
