Facebook is for retards Member 4990, 143 posts | “What Einstein demonstrated in physics is equally true of all other aspects of the cosmos: all reality is relative. Each reality is true only within given limits. It is only one possible version of the way things are. There are always multiple versions of reality. To awaken from any single reality is to recognize its relative nature. | ||

See You Next Tuesday Member 2254, 3824 posts SQ 240, BP 165, DL 300705.0 kgs @ 89kgs UnEq | personally, i think if you dedicate too much time to a single activity, whether its work or sport or anything then its a waste of a life. theres so much to experience in life you shouldnt limit yourself to basically doing one thing | ||

A member for 10 years and still no mouldy peanuts Member 1252, 4480 posts SQ 160, BP 110, DL 215485.0 kgs @ 98kgs UnEq | Post Edited: 24.10.2014 @ 21:03 PM by danbaseley On the whole, in the UK, sport is not taken nearly seriously enough.Football IS taken seriously; for virtually all other sports, mere lip-service is paid. If it wasn't for the national lottery funding various aspects of sport, this country would be a joke; which tells you how much sport means to the country. We offer no scholarship programmes (outside of private schools) associated with sporting prowess. Coaching and facilities are virtually non-existent. We have no teams visiting schools and assessing pupils on their athletic merits, in order to steer them towards sports they are likely to succeed in. So, to recap, athletes are under-funded, under-resourced, under-coached and under-rewarded. It's a wonder we can win anything at the Olympics. | ||

Eg american football.... College football is amateur but is widely covered and they can pull attendance's of 60k. Also it is the main route to the nfl | ||

Also it is the main route to the nfl I wouldn't call that amateur, they are being paid with a full scholarship plus what ever under the table that they do. And the gate money from 60k of people makes it a business for the schools too. So I get back to my point of once there is money involved it's a business and not a sport (maybe you could call it a job for the individual). | ||
