Superhero Syndrome

You ever notice how athletes always have these superhero-like names? The Flash, Rocket Man, Speed Demon. I tried it once at work, introduced myself as Keyboard Kicker. HR wasn't impressed. I guess typing fast doesn't count as a sport.

Spectator Sport

I love watching sports, especially the intricate rituals athletes have before a game. The stretches, the warm-ups. I tried doing that before starting my day once. My cat gave me the weirdest look, like I'd lost my mind. Maybe she's onto something.

Sports Conspiracy

I have a theory that athletes invented sports just to get out of doing chores. Imagine telling your mom, Sorry, can't clean my room, Mom. I have a crucial game of 'Put the Ball in the Basket' with the guys.

Track and Field of Dreams

I never understood the fascination with running track. The only time I run is when my phone battery is at 1%, and I'm two rooms away from the charger. Athletes, on the other hand, treat running like it's a spiritual journey. My spiritual journey is from the couch to the fridge.

Late-Night Olympics

I've discovered a new sport – the Midnight Snacking Marathon. Athletes, take notes. I'm going for gold in the Eating Chips While Trying Not to Wake Anyone Up category. It's a risky sport, but the rewards are delicious!

The Water Bottle Conundrum

Athletes are so hydrated; they carry around those huge water bottles everywhere. I tried it at the office, and my coworkers asked if I was starting a new religion based on the holy water jug. Praise be to H2O, the elixir of hydration!

Game of Groans

You know, I've been thinking about athletes, and I realized they're the only people who get upset about running in circles. I mean, you never hear a marathon runner say, I love the view of this same tree for the 26th time!

Sports Injuries

Athletes are brave. They face injuries head-on, and I respect that. Meanwhile, I once pulled a muscle reaching for the TV remote. I call it couch potato strain. I'm still waiting for the sympathy cards.

Gym Wisdom

I tried working out once. I looked at the treadmill, and it looked back at me. We had a moment. Then I realized, athletes are the only people who pay money to run in one place. It's like they're training for the apocalypse, where the only skill you need is running from commitment.

Olympic Snacking

I was watching the Olympics, and it hit me - athletes are the only people who can turn a bag of chips into a sport. Let's see who can eat the most without looking guilty. I'd be a gold medalist in that, for sure.
