As you mentioned, things like football, baseball and the like have very similar traits as our 'sad obsessive' interests. Yet the former are seen as more acceptable. Is this purely because they have a larger following? Now, I'm sure the great geek uprising of 2098 will wipe out half the population of the earth, but for now, I don't think that the ridicule is really out of any real 'fear' of the different. Perhaps some insecure people feel uncomfortable about someone, shock horror, having other interests than the larger mass of people.
