I don't like football but I like tennis - ok for office?

Very silly question but I don't like football. I literally can't stand it I find it incredibly boring. I can't be asked to even pretend to follow it.

I like tennis though. I find it a lot more exciting, calmer, easier to follow, and I actually like to watch it. 

Is this ok enough to talk about in the office? As in to not be like "outside". I don't really like many other sports.

Not everyone has to like football.   I am not sure if you are going to get many opportunities to bond over tennis, which is one level more exciting than Nascar racing 

 

I don’t like it when Brits call soccer football. It’s either NFL or Futbol.
