Boycott all spectator sports. There is so much money involved, especially on betting, that there's little chance games are completely above board.

Sports is just another form of entertainment, another distraction.

I'm going to try and spend more time participating and less time spectating.

Good exercise, low impact, few injuries and a lot of fun!
Time to let the paid jocks and would-be ball handlers amuse themselves. I’m fed up with the prima donnas.
