7. I couldn't give two shits about spectator sports whatsoever
Does that make me a bad person?

I do support our local teams, because I feel it's a community-minded thing to do, but other than that, I could not care less about anything having to do with watching sports. The participants are obscenely overpaid, almost universally obnoxious, and many are on performance-enhancing drugs that make the contests irrelevant. Games like pro basketball are so over-regulated that whoever wins almost amounts to a coin toss. (108-106? Give me a fucking break.)

It's all about selling beer and other shit that I don't need, and in the end, it all adds up to nothing more than an enormous waste of time.
