Yeah, that’s the people I’m talking about. Whatever— they can say all this stuff about the beauty of the game, I have no problem believing that there’s stuff to appreciate there even if I don’t and even if I have no interest in it. So what? Many people like that stuff and find meaning in it, good for them.

Honestly I sort of feel like it as I do about music or art or religion or for that matter sex. People like what they like, arguments about preferences being ‘better’ are subjective and stupid.

Yep. When I was younger I’d always open up my big mouth and say something like “oh I hate country music!” Or Disco or whatever it was that I “hated.” Later I finally realized that besides being rude it’s pointless. There’s no point in my expressing what I don’t like. I think one of the major points in life is to express what you like.

When I had a TV I went through stages of watching tennis, footballs, baseball, and once followed the Lakers during one playoff season and was thrilled with the game of basketball. Next season? Didn’t watch.

I also became a 49ers fanatic while I was living in San Francisco. I was sort of anti-footballs during my “oh I listen to Bob Dylan” stage. Then I found myself really loving the game.
