This seems a little heavy. Sports were never intended to solve any issues troubling the world. Its just entertainment.
And not everyone bets on games. Some people just like to watch football.

Spoken like someone that hasn't the reality of the whole picture.
True sports weren't meant to solve anything , it was entertainment in the beginning , and fun to play.
Now look at the big picture, how much does it cost to enjoy your sports?
Do you really think $90,000,000 a year is what an 18 year old is worth playing basketball? 30 years ago?
Now who do you think gets a cut of every dollar ? At least 25% I would think.
Where does that money go?
It goes to foreign aid , to countries that never give us a cent!
Why? Because our government has figured out how to make them stealing money from us look like a good Samaritan thing while putting it in their pockets.


We have met the enemy and the enemy is us!

Yep I don't watch much of any sports on tv at all anymore.

I like watching sports, and I don’t do any betting on it. Not much else on TV I care to watch.
