This is a real question. I've never seen the appeal. Is it because more of us are playing various sports on t.v. so we identify with the players? No disrespect, I just never understood the desire to watch sports on t.v. while my brothers and cousin were watching football or basketball I was watching anything else. Can someone explain this?

the same reason every other group on this earth enjoys sports :patrice:



the vast majority of revenue generated in the major sports leagues in america is from white people... so what are you trying to imply with your title? :patrice:

You're must be:
  1. :wrist:
  2. :flabbynsick:
  3. A fukking weirdo
  4. Grew up with no male influence
  5. All of the above
You're deflecting.

Stopped reading at "Ive never seen the appeal"

Then sit on your couch although you unathletic fukk :heh:
For what?

I don't understand why anyone likes sports. I probably should've said why are black people expected to like sports.

1. Men from all backgrounds love sports. ex-Football, soccer, hockey.
2. I know what you are trying to say. We have a support "our" athletes mentality that should be thrown out now. This is not the Jackie Robinson era where you are not allowed to compete.

Black people aren't expected to like sports, OP.

1. Y'all are genetically blessed when it comes to athletics, people tend to gravitate towards what they're good at.

2. The majority of professional athletes with big personalities are black. We live in the social media era, athletes are celebrities. Black kids see themselves in these public figures and wanna be like them. They're role models.

3. You're influenced most by who you spend the most time with. If your friends are all into a sport and you see them having fun and getting female attention out of it, then chances are you'll try it out. Plus men are competitive and physical by nature. Sports pray on our instincts - humans evolved to be physical and social, not sit in front of a screen for 12 hours a day.

This isn't all black kids. Some of y'all like anime. too. :yeshrug:

Not looking for trouble just asking a question. I've encountered many a situation where people i've met assumed I was getting into March madness.

I'm mainly talking about watching sports not playing them.
