That's generally true. As one of the probably rare exceptions, I was a soccer goalie in high school and absolutely loved playing the sport. But darned if I can sit and watch the thing for more than 10 minutes at a stretch... just bores me to tears.
Then again, I don't enjoy watching sports in general... why sit and watch someone else have fun when you can sit and play a video game and have the fun yourself.
