Hypocrite? Naa, I think that's too strong a word.

Probably simply someone who doesn't like other sports.

I watch baseball if it's on. I go to a few games a year, but I view baseball the same way I view going fishing. It's more an excuse to sit and do nothing.

I'm not saying it shouldn't be televised, or people shouldn't enjoy it if they do. I simply said I couldn't care less...
fair nuff!

I don't even watch the highlights. Quite frankly, I really don't care.

Guess that makes me a typical American rube who isn't worldly.

I'm comfortable with that..
If you watch football and baseball, it just makes you a hypocrite... Or simply someone who doesn't like other sports.

This coming from FloMo, eh? Then tell your family members to get rid of their trucks, or live in a place with less sprawl.

Actually, the exact opposite is true in my case. The highlights are pretty pointless to me. Watching history made live, with national pride on the line - the feeling I get when watching the Olympics can't be conjured up in an 8 second "highlight".
