Jaded
What's the chance that in four brothers, only one shows any interest in sports on tv?
My mum must have displaced her sport-loving genes when she gave birth to my three older brothers, and suddenly rediscovered them when I came about. The disparity in this area of interest is tremendous. While they never seem to pay any attention to any sport on tv, I would devour all that is thrown at me: football, basketball, tennis, Formula 1, MotoGP, Tour De France, bowling, pool.. hell, even golf!
Except wrestling of course. That's classified under Theatre and The Arts.
They would rather spend their Saturday nights watching the 627th repeat telecast of some early nineties Hong Kong film. Absolutely shocking.
Surely everyone prefers watching those sleep-inducing nil-nil draws, or cars going round and round a circuit to no end. Non?
This constant losing battle has left me jaded. Think I might just have to fork out that $150 to the evil cable company.
