wow, i havnt been around for awhile.
anyways i actually took part in a discussion on "major league" sports yesterday. my position is that i thought sport was a great way of staying fit, building togetherness, and a good off work activity. and this is all how it used to be, then all the best players got together and now just make millions from people because of their particular athletic skill, mostly given to them through genetics. All this money is being funneled into the elite and to another useless cause. It also creates such a distraction as some people focus their entire lives on this kind of sport.
i love sports, Ive played soccer all but three years of my life, but it doesnt make sense to have leagues where people make millions doing less productive work than someone working in a factory.
