sports in america has become the national religion. it is actually beneficial imho. its something people can talk about and disagree with in a friendly manner unlike religion ha ha. i mean no one talking sports cares whether u got an abortion or not or is going to tell u it was right or wrong ha ha unlike religion. its a good way to release our agressions without being agressive ha ha.
personally i grew up playing sports all the time. as kids we just moved with the seasons and played whatever sport was in season. i learned teamwork, how to lose , how to win a bunch of lessons .i do remember one thing from when our oldest son was a about 12 or thirteen. i bowled with him in a family league. there was one father who bowled with his son about the same age as mine. this guy would tell his son how to throw every ball . every one. he put so much pressure on the kid . i would say a few things to my son but basically it was about us bowling together. we bowled him and his son for the championship of the league. i didnt bowl that well but my son bowled great and we won. i always felt for that other kid because his dad was just so overbearing. so there are lots of lessons to learn in sports imho . its just another part of life which can be very beneficial
