Sports entertainment makes me angry

There is something about it that makes me unable to even tolerate it. When I go into a bar with some sports match on the tv, I get annoyed. Thinking about it, I wonder if it's not the fact that it feels like massive waste and absolute snobbism. Thinking that a government put millions into subsidising an arena to host games that have no meaning beyond the BS the athletes (scammers?) came up with, when that money could have been better spent on virtually anything else (art museums, poverty, climate change...) really gets me.

Or the ridiculous "explanations" about their performance in the game/race/event/what have you, that pretend to make it way deeper than it really is. Chill, you just kicked a ball on a field of grass for a few minutes. It doesn't mean anything. No need to make it seem like it was in any way significant to you, or to anyone watching.

Or swimming. Come on. That's just plain lazy and disrespectful to even call this a sport and put it on the same level as soccer or tennis. Your body literally floats in water without you having to do anything, how dare you call yourself an athlete?

The same goes for ice hockey. Come on, the skates take out all the friction and there's no effort required to glide forward! And don't even get me started on motor sports. I saw some dudes drive in circles in their cars and that was "sports".
