I always liked playing sports rather than watching them.
That is why I'm probably going to get a new knee soon.
I watched (past tense) some football, but I suppose the
sports interest wore off when the money became the predominate
focus of sport.
Don't get me wrong I watch America's cup racing in a second
and that is some money! and my old sail boat could at best do 15 kts.
so almost 50kts is exciting.
But I really don't care who wins.
It is a game, not a reflection of how good or bad
my country is.
As soon as it becomes that sort of contest, I lose interest.
Sport is not war. Too many people want to make it that.
