Guys I do not hate sports. I hate modern day sports. What???? I love to play basketball. One on one, two on two or any combination you can think of I LOVE playing it. I hate watching someone else play. That is the problem with most of the modern day sports it is not just for the "fun" of it anymore. Guys making millions playing kids games is not a good thing for this nation over the long haul.
Now if millions of people played any sport daily for the fun and exercise it would be GREAT!!!! People getting together to enjoy playing against each other is what sports started out to be. It is mainly a modern day thing for their to be "professional" players with the income they make.
I have some great memories playing basketball with a friend in grade school. We played in the dairy barn. The back board was mounted on the out side of a feed bin over the milking pallor. There was maybe 16 foot by 16 foot square of concrete to play on. Depending on how much hay was stacked in the driveway. If you had along rebound it could bounce back into the calving pen or the bull pen. Nothing like time out to "clean" up the ball. YES we did throw the manure covered ball at each other too. LOL I remember the games of horse we would play where you had to bank your shot of the ceiling or the back of the barn door if it was closed.
It was a great time.
I can remember playing in the drive way behind the room my first wife and I lived in, when weather allowed it. Just fun exercise and fellowship.
So I am not against the sports so much as the importance many place on them today.

Today's Featured Article - A Brief History of Tractors in Australia - by Bob Kavanagh. After Captain Cook's exploration of the east coast in 1770 the British Government decided to establish a penal colony in Australia. The first fleet arrived in 1788 and consisted mainly of convicts who were poorly equipped and new little of farming techniques. The colony remained far from self-supporting and it was not until the early 1800's that things started to improve.
