I'm a mad lover of sport. You cannot say a bad word to me about sports. So I know business is involved and I know it can be cynical, and, of course, I watch it, but for me it's pure.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I only really watch sport. That's where you see real joy. I don't like watching much else on TV, because it's generally either twisted or sad.
I think sports makes for good drama because it has all the same ingredients as anything worth reading or listening to or watching. Conflict, desire, heartbreak - it's all there.
I love sports. When I'm not playing, I'm watching, reading, or otherwise obsessing about them. This probably stems from growing up in Indiana, where if you didn't at least attempt to play basketball, you were considered of dubious moral character.
Sports is a bunch of people gathering around, watching something that they're not actually connected to - they're just emotionally connected.
Sports is entertainment.
I really love all sport. I watch sports when I can, but when push comes to show, I think I know it's entertainment.
Professional sports is a business.
I'm getting more and more bored with professional sports, but I still watch.
I don't necessarily love the sports per se, I love the stories behind them. Also in a kind of perverse way I like to study what it does to us, why we care so much. It's caring about something that's utterly meaningless.
I just love sport; I love competing. I'm obsessed by it, to be honest. I can accept losing, sure, no question, but it just drives me crazy. Just ask my wife.
