Originally, adult sports involving a high level of danger and adrenaline that would not appeal to most people but attract a daring few: things like skydiving, bungee jumping, rock climbing, ice climbing, technical mountaineering, hang gliding. It generally did not include sports which were "extreme" in their early years but since became mainstream (e.g., downhill skiing or scuba diving), nor did it include children's and teenager's activities like BMX or skateboarding. Extreme sports originally meant adult and non-mainstream. Later (from the late 1990s on) the meaning changed to become synonymous with non-dangerous kiddie sports and the definition has more to do with age (and with marketing energy drinks, Mountain Dew, baggy pants, and punk and thrash music), much to the chagrin of older folks involved in dangerous sports who now would rather the term would go away.
Skateboarding? That's not extreme. If you want a real extreme sport try hot air ballooning.

People who take apparent pleasure in causing humiliation and torture to children. They also despise their pupils, unless they are the next sporting prodigy.
My sport teacher said I had to keep shooting at this basketball net until the ball went in. I sat there, my team getting more and more anrgy and taking the mick out of me, trying to get the stupid ball to go in, until my teacher, with an exasperated sigh said I could sit down. Most humiliating event of my life. Just because I'm not very good at it, no matter how hard I try, they still hate me for it. In other subjects, teachers help the dumb kids. Oh no, not in PE.

A person who loves sports as an entertainment outlet and is highly interested in one or more sport or sports team.
Notes:
At home, there is the possibility the sports fanatic will stare into a trance in front of the tv in which case you can wave your hand in front of their face just to remind them they made a choice to be hypnotized and you are not responsibile.
At a game, there is the possibility the sports fanatic will shout various words out of loyalty about his team or the opposing team or about his opposing fans that will be rude, crude or just downright funny.
Stay away from people who like to attract security guards at games for various reasons.
There is also danger the entertainment derivatives of sports can take up so much time in one's life that reality becomes the outfield and fantasy becomes the infield.
Her boyfriend (the sports fanatic) owns and wears many shirts/jerseys/hats with team logos, has sports memorabilia on his walls, goes to many games, and becomes depressed when his favorite team loses. On an otherwise leisurely Sunday morning, he gets up early to chat with his friends (who help keep the obsession going) about which picks are good for online sports betting. Maybe if he just played the sport with his friends at the local park, he'd have less energy to be a sports fanatic/overly concerned fan and sweat out the obsession. She tries to remind him that professional sports players are swimming in astronomical amounts of money that shouldn't be encouraged by the plain folk. She thinks that the overindulgence of extra money, time and attention this fanatical fan gives to sports, could be better spent on his own life in which more excitement and variation of activities and hobbies might be needed and prove more rewarding.
