I literally know nothing about football other than the rules and the fact
that I find even golf to be more interesting. I'm sure cricket is worse,
but I don't care to find out. Either way, I find that we're all morons for
making sports as important as we do in our lives. If we watch it from a
distance, not bothering to learn the players' names and simply enjoy the
show for what it is, we're not doing ourselves harm; if we start to
worship the players and care about their lives, we're essentially
destroying the fabric of society without realizing it. These people are of
no importance whatsoever. While it might be healthy to have a local team
and have an occasional distraction from reality, the moment we start
following these people as being our superiors, we're diverting focus from
the things that really matter like our families and God.
