Re: playing with balls
(Anonymous) 2014-06-13 12:28 am (UTC)(link)I really don't see the sports industry as any more a financial black hole as any other form of entertainment.
My point with the Johnson Vs Beiber is the idea that you judge fans harsher if they don't choose the same interests as you, inspite of the fact that there are some damn fine reasons to be more into sport than music

Re: playing with balls
(Anonymous) 2014-06-13 12:50 am (UTC)(link)I wouldn't necesserilly judge a beiber fan harshly, but I think I'd find more to argue with a beiber fan than I would a football fan.
Beiber does not represent the whole of the music industry, but he is a part of it, and not a part that corroborates you're "Music is inherently superior to sport" viewpoint
Every complaint you're levelling at the sport industry could just as easily be levelled at the parts of the music industry that encourages the existence of the Justin beiber product.
Movies. Give me an enjoying game of football over the latest Michael Bay abortion. Give me an industry that punishes John Terry over an industry that glorifies roman Polanski
Videogames. look at.... shit I don't need to tell you about the AAA games industry at the moment.
Comics. Look at the most famous man in comics - Stan Lee. He's just absurdly evil, and we love him. He's a phenominal rippoff artist, and we have been seen him cashing major movie bucks for years based on his butt-fucking of Ditko.
Hell look at Science - Edison turned progress and achievement in to double dealing and lining his own pocket.
Tell me the sport industry is more deserving of judgement just because you don't value it as highly as these other industries both financially and artistically.
Every single entertainment industry is gouging as much cash as it can, and while there are always better any worse people in the industry every industry that can make money will do so with the most appauling morals, will try to empart as little of value as they can get away with. Sport shouldn't be valued any higher than these industries, but it sure as shit doesn't deserver to be valued any lower.
Re: playing with balls
Are people just skipping the part where I linked to how much money sports makes vs. how much money other forms of entertainment make? When people start getting evicted from their homes to make room for a video game tournament then they'll be equivalent.
