I have to take some consideration and write this. I was watching the final four tonight and I have to admit, there is little intellectual acheivement and a major amount of sweat and groaning on the court.
Are these talents we view classified as skills? I would suggest that they are meerly reactions.
I admit that the endeavor of a special athlete is nothing to be sneezed at, but really, are we educating our public with these types of experiences or are we just buying time to the next paycheck?
Either or, I find I view fewer sports, though I am certainly 100% in favor of the sports scene in this nation.
I am simply amazed that people turn out in such number (well its clearly good for the sports economy and noone will complain and keeps the trouble off some of the streets), but really, this is not a skill in s much that it is a visio spatial reaction to a evolving physical dilemma.
But disagree as you wish.
This is not heresy, but the idea of invigorating our soul with the pride of a skill that is not lifelong and really can only be defined as a talent of the cerebellar dominated reaction, I must digress that I find sports to be less than entertaining and more of a pry to assume that I must spend a 3 hour block watching.
Football of course is a skill. It requires the physical contact of an adversary. To put up with that pain you have to be skilled in the aggressor-collision interaction. I have my hats off to those guys.
