I don’t watch or play sports. But I watched when my son played baseball when he was young. I’ve always held the idea that sports were a pacification tactic historically formed to distract people from political apathy, loss of rights, or corruption. During the Roman Empire, the government called it “bread and circuses.” It’s difficult for me to move past the original purpose of sports because they were founded as a raw, essential, and symbolic ground for human survival, rather than merely entertainment for a business.
