I'm afraid that I don't see the value of sport today when I look at the state of the world right now. A lot of time goes into it, even in primary school. For one thing, it is generally not a lifelong activity, and there is a lot of time and money sitting passively watching sports. I would rather see dancing, various dances taught in schools. I did not appreciate being forced to do sports in school but there was no way out of it. Some people place great value on it, but we don't all have the same view. Dancing is a more social, interactive activity and can be done even in old age. What if you are just not good at sports? It really is shoved down our throats anyway. There are fewer college students studying literature now, which is vital for forming critical thinking and vocabulary and writing ability. Students are arriving at college who cannot read and write properly. Kyle Bergh is lucky that he excels in both worlds - sport and writing.
I ordered and read "War on Art" a book recommendation from one of your previous posts....such a good book! Thoroughly enjoyed it!
