I know that not all sports are created equal and that not all athletes are obscenely overpaid.
It is like with artists (culture and arts), only on a bigger scale.
Eh, this could be a long debate. This area of human creativity is blown out of any sane proportion. Like many areas in our society.
Sport and art can get corrupted by money, hence the drug cheats, but they are powerful parts of our culture. I don't support professional soccer or some other sports, but I had a great time at the London Olympics and Paralympics.
