In Reply to: here's my point posted by Yucin on October 27, 1999 at 15:19:02:
If the main thrust of your criticism is "what betterment putting a ball
through a hole makes it to humanity?"; then, why not apply it to all games
and sports, e.g., putting a ball through a hoop and so on. None contribute
to society in the basic survival sense, not like some farmer producing
crops to feed the masses, or a physician healing the sick, suffering and
dying. Moreover, your criticisms could apply to virtually any cultural
activity that did not contribute directly to our survival; i.e., music, art, sculpture, TV game shows, etc.
Beyond that, these sports/games professions have provided countless
people with much enjoyment and entertainment, me for one. Just because
YOU don't appreciate the skills of top golf or billards players doesn't mean
OTHERS do not; if a good number of people didn't enjoy these types of
activities, the cash wouldn't be there for promoters to pay the sums that
top performers get. Face it, we live in a market economy.
