Anybody else dislike team sports? I dislike team sports in general. I hate football. One time I went to the Superbowl because I was in a marching band, and I didn't even watch the game. I like individual sports somewhat. Sometimes I watch a little bit of individual sports like figure skating, tennis, or bicycling. I like the Olympics a lot. That's the only sporting event that I like a lot.

I prefer to participate in individual sports. In team sports, others were the weakest link, or I was; in either case it did not benefit the team as a whole, so I'd rather not participate.

As a rule, I tend to like individual sports and despise team sports. As an exception, there's nothing better than a tactical game of woodsball with a good team.

I, too, prefer to participate in individual sports. My sport of choice has always been
long distance running. Before health problems caused me to hang up my running shoes
I participated in 5K's, 10K's, and Marathons. I ran in the NYC marathon one time. I loved it. I was competing againsy myself. Or, I guess you might say, against the clock.
The only sporting event I am interested in watching on TV are the Olympics.

I doubt many intros are into team sports. I find televised team sports the biggest loss of time ever invented. Very similar to consuming drugs. I like gymanstics and similar sports.

I would imagine many INTJs would prefer individual sports but I guess I'm an exception. I play mens adult ice hockey and baseball. I love "team sports" but I don't necessarily love all the players on the team (looot of extraveted sensors). Especially if they make mental mistakes. I once called this moron out in a mass-email to my baseball team and he was so angry that he basically threatened my life with a bazooka and the Coach had him removed from the league.
I expect a lot out of others. Admittedly, too much. This sometimes causes me to get upset and I have to actively calm myself down. But the idea of going to battle with a group of "brothers" has always been fun. The lows are low but the highs are high. And it's fun to go drink beer together after a great win.
