My Secret is Out!

[n2ize]

I heartily approve of your affliction and pray that it might infect the masses of lazy dolts who lounge around drinking bad beer and idling their time on that shallowest of human activities -- vicarious competition. It is made all the worse today by the high percentage of thugs and misanthropes that "professional" athletics seems to attract. Thoroughbred owners treat their horses with far more respect and loyalty than do professional team owners; indeed, pig farmers treat their stock with more decency than those team owners treat their players. And the worst aspect of all is that it has robbed so many Blacks of the potential to pursue far more honorable and socially responsible careers through the false lure of the sports mills -- exactly opposite of the myths that the establishment has put in place.

Whats wrong with competition ? I think competition & sports is a good thing. It builds confidence, strength and builds men. I remember sometime back in the late 60's or 70's they were pushing that non-competitive "sports" crap. A friend of mine thought it was a great idea .The idea was that you get kids to engage in activities that are non-competitive and are just done for fun. My response to the non-competitive sports is, do you want to build men or wimps. I prefer we build men.

I like spots. Now, I will admit that I haven't been following spots very closely in the recent years. But I do like spots.

You may survive to find a reason to change your opinion should you chance to meet a Jaguar -- not a Jag-you-are, which is an automobile, but the real mccoy, el tigre.

None of you New Yorkers seem able to comprehend simple English. Look up with word "vicarious."

Sure I understand the word vicarious. It's like the thrill I experience at the track when I win on a horse. We all take chances in like, whether it be first hand or secondhand. I firmly believe all competition builds integrity and builds men.

Into what?

Into what?

Steroid abusers, druggies, thugs and rapists?

Or are those just today's role models?

I always wondered if that was a chicken / egg issue. Must be careful to differentiate the symptoms from the disease, after all. And to be fair, many sports stars don't behave as thugs, though their propensity as a demographic sure seems to exceed the standard by a wide margin.

Maybe a parallel -- Sports, like politics: the more money you pump in, the uglier it gets.

They represent only a small percentage of those into sports. Again, what do we want to build ? Men or wimps ? I say men.

Gimme a jar of peanut butter: I can get a dog to lick my balls.

Tell me how pro sports improves my life. Dead serious: I'm okay if this is your pleasure, but I remain unconvinced that it has any positive effect on society. What it seems to build is rich folks who don't produce anything at all.

Fuckers throw balls and make millions.

Justify that. I cannot.

Into individuals who are confident, physically and emotionally strong and of robust character and strength,.
