I love playing every single sport! I golf, play baseball,soccer,I race sport bikes and love participating in motorsports... But when they come on TV, sports highlights, college football or people start talking about the Superbowl or some sort of Conference I want to shove qtips in my years until my ear drums burst! I don't know anyones names who traded who and I really don't care about their injuries. IIN I love to play, but can't stand watching it on tv?

Normal. You'd rather play sports then watch it. The sports on tv are dragged out for a lot longer then they should be.

WATCHING = BORING
Who care's what people you don't know do!

PLAYING = FUN
Doing anything physical that takes skill and effort is fun, whether it's competitive or not, so long as it challenges oneself!

GAMING = FUN
Video games are fun because there are clearly defined goals which require skill to achieve. Playing against the computer, yourself, or others is still a challenge, and surmounting challenges are always fun.

THEORIES
A. MANY people fake enjoying watching sport to be able to bond / be closer to others that they believe enjoy watching sport.

B. People also fake it from peer pressure or because they think it's normal to.

C. People enjoy watching sports because it distracts them from their own lives and routing for a team means when the team succeeds, vicariously they themselves feel like they've achieved something, and in their lives this happens too seldom, so they take what victories they can.

SUMMARY
Why would watching strangers have fun be fun... I don't think it intrinsically is. We have to fool ourselves.
