I remember resenting being made to do P.E. back in school. My mentality was "Why should I have to do this, I'm not fat." My attitude toward sports when I was younger, was somewhere between indifference and hate. "Why are they doing this. - This doesn't matter, there's literally no point to this."
Once my PE requirement was done sophomore year HS, I had nothing to do with athletics ever again, apart from personal hikes/bike rides. I went to college and I don't think I even attended a single game of any kind, HS, college, or pro, much less participated in one. And there were some big games that took place on campus, drawing the whole student body. I remember looking at colleges, and one place claimed they were doing away with their athletics program entirely, and I took that as a positive at the time.
Later, at work they'd listen to ESPN radio all day, so I was kind of forced to remember that there is a person named Lebron James who is rather good at basketball. Then some other stuff, then I started watching a few local games and paying attention to things. I remembered/discovered something amazing: if you have the most basic, cursory knowledge of sports, it makes small talk with random guys like 50x easier. So I broadened a bit and worked up a basic, simple working knowledge of pro sports.
I usually just follow standings for the big four leagues; I still almost never actually watch a game apart from football or playoff baseball now. I just keep tabs on local teams, and know who's doing well/who's terrible, generally.
I still don't follow college stuff. I even grew up in a small college town that has had some success with a few programs, and I just never cared until more recently, and only for "cultural" reasons. I don't see the point of supporting any college team unless you actually went to that college. Like somehow that's even more ridiculous than being a fan of a local pro team. Like there's two degrees of separation, not one.
