I understand your point on the idol worship of athletes, and how the NFL has become a religion. I differentiate between amateur or youth and professional sports. 99% of kids that even make it to the college level will never sniff a professional field. The structure of sports for young people is a positive good, I will stand by that statement.

yes I see what you mean. I have seen years ago in the sub division I was in where the fathers would go to a nfl game and I would be choosing up sides with all the kids they left there playing softball and football with them. then they would knock on my door and I would do it again. I loved setting the kids up to play which the fathers should have been doing and watch how happy they were

I would replace NFL with playing sports outside and movies with books.
