I'm beyond sick of every sport thinking about expanding and just destroying the quality of games
FIFA expanding the World Cup field, NCAA following suit, the massive promotion of sports betting, advertising rapidly expanding with placements now on uniforms and digital dasher boards rotating ads... I feel like the sports world is running towards the abyss.
This has been said since the dawn of pro sports. Too bad the money keeps rolling in and will continue to do so in the immediate future it seems.
Maybe is just me but it seems today everyone is racing to expand and the past the would let some years
I get that but still as a fan is so upseting since we can't do anything except not watchingNoone wants to miss out on any gambling dollars probably. Sports and gambling, what could go wrong?
Amateurism was created to keep poor people from playing sportsIt could be argued that the first time anyone got paid to play a sport it has been running towards the abyss. The idea of amateurism, in its truest form, has long been dead. Balancing competition vs. unbridled capitalist encroachment is now seemingly a losing battle.
That noone, or at least a sizable chunk of the consumer market, gives a shit, will keep it moving in this direction.

Unreal.
