82. I only enjoyed basketball in high school
We had like the only all-white team in Florida (I lived in lilly-white Cocoa Beach, bedroom community to the Kennedy Space Center), and were state champs. It was fun then, because it was an excuse to go out at night and smoke pot and feel up girls under the bleachers. But once that was done, I never saw the appeal of Basketball. Especially pro basketball, wherein everyone is so good that it seems every game just comes down to who has the ball when the buzzer goes off. The final scores are alway just two points apart. It's basically, team A get the ball, shoots, scores, gives ball to team B who then runs to the other end, shoots, scores, hand the ball to team A again...repeat until buzzer goes off. I just don't get it.

NASCAR? Sorry. That appeals to me even less. Maybe if they put a basketball hoop alongside the track and the drivers had to try to sink one each time they lapped...THAT I'd watch.

Or maybe if there was pot and titties like the good old days.
