Just popping in to say that school sports are a fuckkng cancer that bleeds the educational system and produces nothing much of value aside from a tiny percent of sports scholarships, and good feelies for cheerleader moms.
I can see value in it. Fitness, teamwork, dealing with winning and losing, there are valuable lessons to be learned from sports. Gets kids outside too. It's extremely over-prioritized though, and over-funded. As the kids get older it even becomes exploitative.
I despise school sports.
