I still don't understand why you have decided to be "anti-sports". I completely understand if you don't enjoy playing or watching football, or if you think sports players are paid far too much, but I think it's silly to be against the idea of sports. It's just a physical activity people play for competition and fun.
I agree, football can be very annoying with all the annoying fans and such. It is just a crowd of sweaty guys running into each other for a ball.
I will play it with my friends though, if they ask.
Why can't we just accept that people like doing different things, and that the facts that people that play certain sports are not inherent of anything else but that they play those sports?
I love rugby and league.
I don't like football (soccer) much. It's pretty boring for the most part.
American football is great once the plays actually happen. It's not quick enough to be honest. I realise the strategy, and the stop/start plays is part of the game, but you get the same amount of strategic set plays in rugby. For every 10 seconds of play, American football seems to have 2 minutes of high fives, replays and players casually strolling back to their positions.
American football or soccer?
Because I actually have no idea how to play football, but I kind of like soccer, even though it's tough to find people to play with who don't get seriously mad and ruin the game.

I'm talkin good old 'merican football.
Also: that brings up a point.
One reason I hate sports is that almost all the other people playing when I'm forced to do it in PE are incredibly obnoxious, plus I'm not a fan of team effort.

You hate team effort, well your screwed in the Job world. Everywhere you'll work they drive that word TEAM down your gullet till you say it in your sleep. But playing sports just gives you the camaraderie that's hard to find else where, as long as you don't have selfish pricks which usually not the case on an organized school team because coach gets those assholes.

You'll most likely be on a small team working together mainly to double check each other results and action and plus two minds are better then one especially in something like that.

that at least sounds better than large team sport things. Maybe my lab partner for research will be a hot woman who I end up marrying. :smile.gif:

Who knows maybe but all your life you'll have to deal with teamwork, unless your a hermit or something. I can understand how you might be turned off, Whenever I have to do group work at school I usually get put in a horrible group were I'm forced to do most of the work because I happen to listen during school but that isn't teamwork that's just them being pricks. Real teamwork is everyone doing their share and helping each other out when needed. When you get real teamwork you'll most likely enjoy it unless you absolute hate people.

I WILL WORK ALONE AND BE A SCIENTIST unless there is a sexy lady then I will take advantage of that totally.
if it was a rubbish attempt at being funny, then ok, I'll let it drop, but if not, that seems kind of a shallow perspective on life (yes, scientists are capable of being shallow people - I've met a few)
dude. I was saying the working together might be ok in small groups. Just saying it would be BETTER with an attractive female lab partner. Why can't you comprehend the mind of a teenager?
tbh from what I gather it'd be hilariously awkward if you were in a room with anything remotely attractive and female - why would it be better than a male partner, in any case - you'd have something to gawp at, because that's what women are there for, right?
um not exactly.
but anyway, why am i not allowed to be slightly lustfull? I'M ENTITLED. But still, I have a couple friends who are girls. I like them, but I also just enjoy the friendship.

how many team efforts do Biochemists preform?
I hope to be able to do independent research.
thats it! I dont watch any other sporting events.
At least watching college football is a little better than playing a sport.
