Geek,

....'Guys' most into watching TV/sports are those that don't really have any goals or accomplishments of their own.

Subsequently, they search for 'their own' accomplishments, vicariously through athlete's that DO have goals and HAVE had accomplishments.

They also have no thoughts of their own regarding their viewing of sports, but rather 'parrot' what they hear sports commentators say as they sit on their asses watching their life-giving TV.

So people that like watching sports are shallow, unambitious, butt-scatching losers? For shame. Bong, I love ya man but this is way outta line. While I don't agree with GT's rants, your reply is just dumb. This comes across less as "what I think" than "this is how it is". Perhaps I'm missing out on the subtle indicator of sarcasm?

I conside myself to be pretty ambitious, artistic, a seeker of knowledge and fun, and a sports viewer. I'm sure there are many people, some even on this board, who are into sports and tiki. They may not ever talk about it here (which they shouldn't, this not being a sports forum), but now I can see why.

You are capable of more compassion than this, Bong, I know it. Prove me right.
