[LEAKYSEALS951]

I don't watch sports. I prefer to get out and do something, even just standing in the garage and daydreaming about some project, is better for than me watching sports. I can stand and stare at how a wheel fills out a fender for hours. Not so with sports.

I ride bikes- many times on group rides, fellow riders will pull up next to me and ask me what I thought of the latest tour de giro or whatever. "Pantini was on killing it today" etc. and I am clueless. I have no idea who these cycling heroes are and it's supposed to be "my" sport.

I try to establish that I don't follow sports, and everyone forgets and then the whole process starts over again.

Maybe some brief winter olympics stuff, but that's about it.

The whole thanksgiving/football thing drives me crazy. After an early afternoon dinner, I'd prefer to stand outside in the cold and listen to an occasional crow caw than watch football. Or any other sport.
