i am the same as morbs, i can't watch a sports game without a rooting interest, even if i'm just choosing one at random because i don't care about either team. if the result of the game is gonna piss me off either way why would i waste my time, enough things piss me off already, *pursue a beautiful life*
also i've never had anything against the phillies, they were my dad's team growing up and their fans at least own up to being assholes. and 2001 was a great WS! it ended in jeter crying.

and i usually don't have a problem with the WS bc the cards are the only NL team i really don't like. wld have no problem rooting for any other NL team vs BOS or NYY.
i do like beltran and i love koji, maybe i'll watch some games for them

Rooting for the Red Sox

yeah i like baseball so there's have to be better reasons than "both teams are gross" to not watch the world series. seems like a weird position. i mean, a couple years ago i would have dreaded a lakers/celtics finals, but i still would have watched it

my concerns re sporting events where my fav team isnt playing
1. competitiveness2. quality of play3. style of play10. is teams i dont like in it (does not apply to yankees or lakers who i root hard against which is fun and cool)
can usually find someone to root for even if im not into either team tho

i know there are tons sports fans who feel different, so many super hardcore sox fans wont even watch the playoff if theyre not in it, which always seemed weird to me but hey free country

i mean, i apologize for being annoying, i have nothing against any of u for liking teams i hate

i know someone who is a snotty diehard sports fan who just hates every single team, player or "story" that comes out of espn, the only team i know he roots for is the bills, which means he also hates his own team, and it's tiresome and i just want to tell him "maybe you should just stop watching sports for a while"

This is how I invent my rooting interest when all else fails, I root for whichever team has the most players I like.

lol oh man that is so sad

i would probably never not watch the finals or world series, football i think is a dumb sport but i watch occasionally just because everyone else does, i'd totally skip out on the super bowl if i didn't care about either team but there are always fun parties and food associated with that

the superbowl is our greatest and most important american tradition you nasty bolshevik
