Sports are highly valued in my
life. Throughout childhood my parents always kept me in season, whether it was
baseball, basketball, soccer, or golf. ESPN is pretty much the only channel
watched at my house other than Duck Dynasty(who doesn’t love Si). Throughout
college I have loved playing pick up basketball, participating in intramurals,
or getting a round of 18 with some buds. The connection to sports started as a
young one for myself. My parents said I loved kicking and throwing things since
I could walk. There’s a good chance they put me in every possible sport just to
get some away time from me.
I believe
that sports have a possitive effect on society. They create a sense of
competitiveness, in addition to integrity and respect. American society would
have a complete make over without sports. A lot of people identify themselves
with the sports teams they follow. The amount of money, time, and coverage of
sports has led to the conclusion that sports are an integral sport of society.
Athletes are some of most prominent figures in America, but the emotions
associated with each of them vary.
