Reasons to just do away (I am not suggesting a government ban) on competive sports. Ex. basketball, football, baseball, damn near everything else. I wasn’t always like this. Had a conversation with wife of a co-worker 20 some years ago and thought she was nuts. Funny how time and reconsideration can change a person outlook.
A huge waste of time. Unproductive except for large corporations and inflating players egos.
It reinforces division and us vs. them attitudes. Not unity and cooperation like what is needed today.
Add in b.s. like taking a knee during the anthem and men in womens sports, let’s just do away with competive sports.
If you want to ‘stick it to the man’ of overpaid athletes and mega-rich sports conglomerates, please consider.
I now spend my sundays at the rifle range.
You don’t like to do anything where people compete against each other? Board games? Multiplayer video games?
co-op is always more interesting
I’m all in for the co-op, let’s work together type.
Ok. But what are cooperatively opposing? A computer in a game? Fine but that’s still a competition. A game by definition means a certain level of competition as a result of being oppositional by nature.
I had this same thought recently about the “divisive oppositional mindset” however I would like to think that for a majority it’s an outlet for that competitive instinctual drive. Thus not allowing that mindset to run your everyday life.
