Knows every fact, every rule, everything about every sport - but is too fat to participate in any of them. Couch has an ass groove.

I think anyone who wears a jersey past age 13 is a pretty big sports nerd. I love seeing fifty-year old, 5'6", pasty white guys wearing Lebron James jerseys. Cracks me up.

I think these are the people who tend to populate Wal-Marts--or at least the physical resemblance.

They probably also live with their parents or if they have their own apartment, everything down to the pillows has a sports team logo on it. Kinda reminds me of George Costanza. The probably don't know who the secretary of state is but know LeBron's shoe size in high school.

I'm scared to step foot in a sports bar, but I might one day to conquer my fear.

This is why the only Jerseys I wear are cycling jerseys.

Jon.

(Although, I must point out that I only wear them while, you know actually biking for a good 3+ hours)
