...so much violence in sports....and it's escalating....sports are often used to get kids off the streets and away from violence and drugs....but now...i can see young kids being influenced and thinking....i'm gonna be a great hockey player, so i can go and disable someone :D ....haha...and maybe in 10 years, curling teams will even trying to debilitate their opponents with the stones :D ...
hope i'm not being naughty here.......

I don't think so... unless you're one of the gang leaders...
Unfortunately, there seems to be an increase in overboard aggressiveness in more than just sports. Studies have found that overpopulating an enclosure with rats and mice causes them to attack one another. Wonder what it will be like before this century comes to a close?

To my mind... :roll: .....

"Sport" involves fighting and aggravation.

I can well do without it on the Internet, News Media, Radio, and Television.

My Space Flights to the Constellation of Alpha Centauri have always been popular during the dreaded Olympic Games every year!
