Giants win Superbowl XLII

So?

That's all unwell and bad, but our culture, hell, our species, has been idolizing sports players as far back as Greece and Rome, and probably even farther back than then.

It's an aspect of society I wish wasn't there, as it provides an excuse for the unintelligent to reign dominant over those quite frankly more deserving of fame than them, ie people who use their brains.

A lot of people will argue that my view is unfair, but I really don't see why anyone would exalt someone to such extremes because they can run faster or jump higher than someone else. That shit doesn't matter.

To play a sport is good for your body and mind and all, but it's pro sports that really fuck up the point of it. These players make millions off of playing a fucking game.

I digress though, what I intended to say was that the human race is geared towards deifying the physically fit, and if people find it as a way to make money or find pleasure in forcing their children to live lives they didn't, oh well. It's like arguing against peeing.

"Goddamn, all these people making money off of toilet paper."

People will do it.
