Re: playing with balls

[rubbertea]

so? people spend money to watch people do things all the time. how is it any different from musicians, stand-ups, or even circus acts?

i also disagree that people only like sports because they're uneducated. there are sports that are more popular in certain categories of people, but people from all backgrounds and levels of income like sports. a friend of mine's dad is a super rich engineer and a really big fan of golf. some of my college professors are regulars at the local gym and sports clubs. one of them even played competitively for a while.

Actually I'm pretty sure no noted and acclaimed writers or novelists or noted Marxist intellectuals or Nobel Prize winners or global religious leaders are fans of sport

nope

none at all

It's about an imbalance of value. I mean, I fully recognize that I'm in the minority regarding the value of sports, but surely you have to agree that the priorities are at least somewhat skewed.

Sports gets all the money while schools and museums close. Stadiums get built, the people living there get shoved aside. How is that okay?

Sport didn't kill the museum. Hollywood did. People can not entertained so easily by bones and vases when you can see a man fly. And sports don't get all the money. Again, look to Hollywood. Look to the games Indusrty. Look at TV. Look at the music industry. Any industry based on entertaining will always be swimming in cash.

Do me a favour and re-read the part where I talk about how much revenue the movie and video game industry brings in vs how much money goes into the sports industry and then come back. Thanks.
