What makes a sports nerd?

[Greatlookinhair]

What do you possess that would officially make you a sports nerd.

For me.
Upper Deck Ken Griffey Jr. Lunchbox
An Ichiro beanie baby
Karl Malone Christmas ornament.

Re: What makes a sports nerd?

I have 3 different basketball statistics sites bookmarked on my work computer for those instances where I have to prove somebody wrong and simply cannot wait until I get home.

My 3 FreeDarko shirts...

Andre Miller Nuggets jersey that I bought a year after he left the team?

Well, the main thing that makes me a sports nerd (or more accurately, a basketball nerd):

*drumroll*

Spoiler

I can sit through NBA Summer League games, even on a ****ty streaming feed with no audio.

Re: What makes a sports nerd?

oh spare me. Every year we play them I try to refrain from the jokes, but after about of hearing "Go cocks" for about a quarter, I lose all restraint. Same story with everybody else. I bet any other SEC fan has at least said something along the lines of it if they ever were live in the stadium


It's like when Oregon used to play USC it was always "Our Dixon>Your Bush" or "Our Dixon, your Booty."

Re: What makes a sports nerd?

I'm a statistics freak. Every year I create my own statistics database for the English premier League. League tables, goals, free kicks scored, penalties scored, penalties saved, clean sheets, multiple goal games. You name it.

I don't want to hijack this thread, but I'm going to.

Why do people do that? I've never understood that. It doesn't seem the least bit entertaining, especially in today's "jumbotron with all the info on it anyways" stadiums.

Oh, and on the topic, I have these on my car:

Re: What makes a sports nerd?

I don't know if this counts since it's no other possession than a bat, but standing in front of the TV mimicing batting stances as people are hitting.
