Sports - It brings out the worst in you

What is it about sports that has seemed to grip our society now, and just pull us around. We treat way too many things like they are the end of the world. Today, I watch 60+ year olds taunting high school kids at a district basketball game. I won't mention school names, but it wasn't a good situation. There is no reason for that kind of behavior, and you would think that someone in their 60s might think better before taunting an 18 year old?! Not a good idea. But, I've been reminding alot of people around here today that it's only a game. I am competitive and like to win as much as anyone else. But I'll also sleep tonight knowing that it was only a game, and things will still be fine tomorrow. I wish more people understood that.
