You think professional sports are a socially wasteful activity.
Z: yes I do!
Lol! But then why encourage a talk that advertises to make someone a better athlete?
On a completely unrelated note, what are the odds of you ever setting up your own podcast or going back to regular blogging?
Could it be that just because something is socially wasteful that doesn’t mean there isn’t something to be gained from analyzing it? Maybe that’s why?
I don’t know what Landsberg position is. Personally I dislike professional competitive sports like world soccer or the olympics. It seems wasteful and they train so hard to the point it becomes unhealthy. That doesn’t mean I don’t enjoy doing sports for leisure and for healthy reasons.
