 Sports is a pretty broad category, and you don't have to take action shots if that's not what you like.
 
 I can think of quite a few still life/studio shots that would work, as well as candids and even macros.
 
 Maybe you can find a way to use humor or dislike of sports to make a shot.
 
 I'm really not into insect photography but I had a great time doing something I normally would never do...and it's turning out to be one of my higher rated shots.
 
 Up to you, but don't write it off too fast.

		| Yeah,, I thought of something on that line,, but figured it would be voted down because it's a game not a sport... |

 Think there's lots of people that'll disagree with you there! |

		Don't they cover billiard/pool on ESPN?  That has to qualify that as a sport - darts can't be too far away!
 
 FWIW, I think the challenge of photographing sports comes in capturing the action or the emotion - whether you like the sport or not, being able to capture those in a picture is a great accomplishment.  I've tried photographing my daughter doing sports - not an easy thing to do at all. |
