Why are public funds going to support millionaires?
We should all remind ourselves that sports are a form of entertainment, and should, in theory, be seen no differently than a rock concert, Vegas magic show or the state fair. We buy a ticket and are entertained. Television / advertising revenues, and now legalized betting, have raised the stakes, but the fact remains, sports is simply entertainment. How many of us remember what the acronym ESPN stands for: the Entertainment and SPorts Network? It's a shame, when considering billionaires and their 'hobbies' as owners, that there remains only one professional sports team that is owned by its fans/city: the Green Bay Packers.
Fuck sports ball and everything to do with it.
