Is anyone else just not into football?

I may be a pariah for saying this but despite all the excitement surrounding football season, I am just not into it! I guess I never have been really, despite growing up with my dad who would watch it like clockwork. It just doesnt really catch my interest. The ironic thing is that occasionally for my job I get to work at our local stadium and essentially watch games for free. Ha. Anyone else feel similarly?

Right now I enjoy College football more. The Pros I will watch my favorite team if they are doing well which is not very often. I don't usually watch Sunday or Monday nights although on occasion I'll watch the end of a game if the score is close. I usually get more into it around playoff time...

I have never liked football and never watched a Super Bowl.

I occasionally watch Rugby, other than that I am not really interested in watching sports.

I grew up with it on t.v. ALL the time, I do not watch it anymore. I only like my state team and I only care about hearing the score, I do not watch.

I enjoy it, but enjoy it more when my team is playing. I rep Manchester United of England, though we lost this weekend

i didnt like football until i moved to Boston. the excitement is infectious! the whole city is in a good mood when we win. its more about the social aspect than the game for me

I'm not into foot ball either. And even though basketball is the most popular sports here I don't even watch it.

Got no use for it. I'm more of a baseball and hockey fan.

I used to follow it when I lived in the States, but, here in Israel I have no interest in it anymore.

Yeah, I am not a big sports fan in general, but my dad is more into baseball than anything else. So if I pay attention to any sport it'll more likely be baseball.

I'm just not that into it. Now when the Superbowl comes on and everything, I act like I watched the entire season.
