Fishing

I like fishing. I really do. I find it very relaxing and in just a moment it becomes exiciting. But. And it's a big but, not fat chick on the bus big, but big. I HATE watching it on television. Maybe because I don't want to watch the other guy having a good time or relaxing when I can't. It's not the same as watching baseball, football or even NASCAR(which I don't) because they get paid to do something that 98% of the population can not do as well as them. I mean these fishing guys get paid too. They are "professionals"(pro fisherman?) I find it extremely dull to watch someone else do this. I actually do feel sorry for one guy. The guy who has to sit through hours of footage of some guys sitting in a boat waiting for a fish to strike. This schmo sits and watches 5 or 6 hours of somebody else fishing so that he can find the 20 minutes that might make up a half hour show(including the sponsor's ads). That's almost as bad as the guy who has to watch some redneck sitting in a tree hoping that a deer walks by, for 5 or 6 hours. I don't care if he's getting paid or not. If he doesn't come up with something that's reasonably interesting he's looking for a new job. Maybe that wouldn't be a bad idea. But unemployment sucks
