I used to be like you until I discovered that watching football is the perfect !boozers weekend activity. Football isn't complicated for a newcomer to enjoy, just pick a side and get emotionally invested in what is going on. Praise your team when they do something good and yell profanities at the TV when they don't. Don't forget to drink cold beer and stuff your face with food during the comemrcial breaks. Over time you will learn what is going on and who the players and teams are.

I feel like it wpuld be more entertaining if there were two balls and they didnt stop every 10 seconds.

Stopping every ten seconds is what makes it such a great spectator sport. That way everyone can bullshit and drink and whatever. Plus dramatic tension.

I used to think "oh there's so many breaks in play and commercial breaks this is stupid" but then I realized that the whole sport is literally designed for you to drink/eat/talk between plays. Unlike the inferior sport of soccer for instance, where you have to pay attention because the ball is virtually always in play and something could happen at any moment, football concentrates its action into well-defined periods. You can pay close attention for a bit, then there's a break and you can just shoot the shit with friends.

I think the closest I've gotten to getting sports is watching dirt track.
Also connects me to my redneck roots.
