Men in general are expected to like sports and I I don't see how it's so hard to understand the appeal.. sports are competitive, keep you active, and it's somethin you can enjoy with others whether you're playing or just watching

I meant just watching sports. I've never seen the appeal. My friends and I don't watch sports together, we're at a club or watching a movie and my girl doesn't like sports. My brothers and my pop loved it but I never got into what was enjoyable about it.

When i tell nikkas i don't like watching american football and I have no pulse on whats happening in the NBA :mjlol:


Ain't got shyt to talk about after that. :francis:



It's not that I don't like basketball or american football, I'd just rather play that shyt than watch. Too redundant for me and definitely a pacification tool for any(not just black) who watch.

This is what I mean. Playing is one thing but why do people watch it?

White men are far more insecure about this than brehs are... the average Black Man doesn't think sitting on your couch watching other men play sports makes you more manly :dame:





I LOVE watching sports... but I don't think I'm more manly than a nikka who doesn't watch sports.

I think it's just a guy thing....whenever another guy tells me he doesn't watch or follow sports I admit that I see him a little less than.

It's hard for me to understand....sports goes deep into my childhood...I played sports all day when I was 10,11,12 etc in parks, on teams in the Summers with friends and we all pretended to be our favorite players...we collected the sports cards, traded them, wore their jerseys so on and so forth.

I just don't understand what the hell you were doing with your time when a guy was the same age. If you weren't watching football, basketball, hockey, soccer or whatever...just what were you doing with your time? Were you some Einstein nikka? Just what does a 12 year old kid do if he's not playing sports? Never understood it.
