I am taking some serious flack on facebook for this

All sports for that matter. All it does is facilitate a primitive tribal instinct of belonging to a team.

I like some sports but I find most boring and insignificant.

Which of them do you like and which of them do you find most boring and insignificant?

I like almost all sports.

K: I’m with you… I played most sports and watched them…
I was active until I hurt my back at age 47…Now I am just an
armchair warrior…

He’s like anti-competition. Nobody hates a winner like him. HH, you’re the best at that.

I like boxing, UFC, archery, and long distance rifle shooting championships.

I just find all other sports boring.

People actually make millions of dollars a years bouncing a basketball or kicking a football?

It’s so boring and stupid to me.

Me anti competition? :laughing: No, not at all.

In my world competition would have no laws, regulations, etiquette, or anything. That’s genuine authentic competition.

People like you only like competition when it is already rigged in their favor. You like controlled competition.

An environment of controlled and orderly competition.

That’s the difference between you and me.

Is the “UFC” (“Ultimate Fighting Championship”) really “the largest mixed martial arts promotion company in the world featuring most of the top-ranked fighters in the sport”?

Yes, it does.

I admit that I just googled it. In Europe there is no UFC.

By “authentic competition” you mean an “anarchic competition” or something like the “survival of the fittest” in nature?

There are no fighting sports in Europe? That sucks.

Yes, authentic social Darwinism only within the anarchist sense.

There are fighting sports in Europe, but - as I said - there is no UFC in Europe.

Your UFC started in 1993, maybe the European UFC will start 30 years later or so.

I might have known it. :wink:

What did you play?

I played football (soccer), table tennis, volleyball - not always but often as a club member.

K: as a kid, I played baseball and then in High school, ran cross-country and track,
in track I did the sprints, pole vaulting, ran the hurdles and after high school I continued
to run, ran a marathon, did rock climbing and backpacking, was a manager of
swim school for 20 years and was soccer coach for my daughters Ayso team…
then in my 40’s, I did two separate 80 miles backpacking trip in the Sierra’s,
one in Yosemite and one in King’s Canyon and then I hurt my back… The only sport
I tried and really didn’t like was golf…I was a sprinter in high school so I had
the speed for most sports, just not the size, the day I graduated from High school
I was 5’3 and 117 pounds… Today I am 5’8 and 210, quite a difference…and
mostly from beer :-$

I will watch any sport on the TV and it drives my wife fucking nuts…

Interesting. I had both the speed and the size for most sports, but I was not always motivated, because sometimes there were other, more intersting things too.

5’3 - I guess, you mean feet -, thus: 161.54 cm.
117 pounds, thus: 53.07 kg.
5’8 - I guess, you mean feet -, thus: 176,78 cm.
210 pounds, thus: 95.25 kg.

You grew 0’5 feet (thus: 15,24 cm) after you „graduated from High school“?
How old were you when you „graduated from High school“?

The preponderance to football has nothing to do with dasein. It’s genetic.


Do you like competition?
