Over the last couple of weeks, I've been re-watching the Rocky movies. Despite my dislike of almost all sports, there's something primal about boxing that appeals to me. I can't watch hockey, baseball or even wrestling anymore, but if a boxing match is on TV in a bar, I can stare at the tube. It doesn't make any sense, really. It's such an uncivilized sport, hearkening back to the days of the Roman gladiators. And the Rocky movies are just fun -- even if the last couple of have been pretty bad and the next one is also likely to be terrible.
