According to one 2021 study, only 23 percent of Generation Z describe themselves as passionate sports fans, as opposed to 42 percent of millennials, 33 percent of Generation X, and 31 percent of baby boomers. Further, a sizable 27 percent of Gen Z described themselves as “anti-sports,” compared with single-digit percentages from other generations saying the same.
Makes me wonder what the "bigger problem" is.
I personally love sports. As in, the actual doing of them. I was a successful athlete until a tragic shoulder injury. So now that I started with "I love sports" and got your autismo minds to sperg, let me explain: I love sports, not (((sportsball))) or (((niggerball))). I only pay attention to my (almost) all white high school sports, mainly football (which I played), and motorsports. I stopped watching pro and college sports over a decade ago, actually
before they became super political.
I actually see the whole "they became way to political" thing as merely a symptom of a more fundamental issue. I stopped watching because "they" clearly were making the sports more like reality TV than, you know...a sport.
For instance, I like a good game. Doesn't matter if it's high scoring or low scoring. In American football, I'd love a 3-0 game just as much as a 103-100 game, and yet, ToUcHdOwNs ArE eXcItInG!!!!11!!11!! so the NFL and NCAA changed rules to make the sport of football more like basket ball. Oh, and the same wizards of smart also made them WAAAAAAAAAYYYYYY to political. A move that's really, simply predictable for those dumbasses...
But still, I wonder what the "bigger problem" is that the title of the article refers to. Let's find out...
The gradual loss of interest in sports is a symptom of a larger problem, which is that Gen Z lacks both civic involvement and any interest in attaining it. This has been a significant factor in the erosion of the community fabric where Gen Z lives. As we spend an increasing amount of time tuned into our digital lives, many of us lose sight of the traditional forms of community that previous generations relied on.
Now, ironically, I'd agree with much of that...but of course the jew only laments this A.) in the sense it can't make money off them, and B.) way to fucking late. Hey boomers...that paragraph I quoted just now. You're finally acting like it's an emergency, but it's not. It was an emergency 10-15 years ago. You did nothing. Now it's a fucking disaster.
The boomer generation is quickly becoming the largest percentage of homeless people in America...GOOD! You not only deserve it. You earned it. Go starve, suffer, and die. We'll all enjoy watching it.

The Hunger Games was a dystopian horror; but I’d be placing bets left and right on that shit. Every other sport bores me to tears.
