It's not based on mass market or commercialized versions of those things, it's just nothing does it for me (more importantly, the issue of popular media, a *lot* of popular media is broadly appealing; there are plenty of films I like that most other people like). I pretended to like things as a kid, but sports bored the hell out of me and music just never did anything for me (other than the occasional show tune). When it comes to listening, I'd rather have talk radio or something else on. Instead of sports, I'd rather watch film, tv, etc.

While in theory there could be a music out there that might appeal to me (since, although I've heard a lot of music over the years, there's likely tons I haven't), there are only a certain number of sports and none of them have really worked. Even MMA I can't watch that long and I only care about the matches themselves.

Likewise, there are a lot of things which do interest me -- and are equally important within human society -- that most people don't care about, such as history.

All I heard is "I don't like ANY sport or music! Except, you know, MMA. And show tunes." and people do care about History when it's a history that interests them, much as I doubt you care about the history of my cat as it doesn't appeal to you.

Sports and music appeal to humans intrinsically, however there is often a lot of crap piled on top that obfuscates the pleasant elements.
