“One of the reasons people love sports is because it's non-political. And to the degree that Donald Trump puts sports organizations like golf tournaments in difficult positions, they won't want anything to do with him, i think all of this is evidence that Donald Trump is finding it a lot harder to be a candidate than he probably anticipated.” PeopleThinkingWantLoveReasonPoliticalSportsDifficultPositionTrumpDegreesFindingsEvidenceOrganizationHarderGolfCandidatesTournamentsGolf TournamentsNon Political Author:Ari Fleischer
“I've come to the conclusion that it's all about fear- fear that your kid won't come out on top, be a success. Forcing him into these brutal encounters will a) make a dame sure he is a success, and b) all you to see evidence of that success with the added bonus of a cheering crowd. This means that sports are supported with an almost desperate enthusiasm. The football team gets catered dinners before a fame. Honor Society is lucky if it gets a cupcake. Academic success-forget it. That requires too much imagination. There's no scoreboard.” IfsMeanKidsSportsImaginationForgetToo MuchTeamFootballHonorFameLuckyEvidenceCrowdsDinnerConclusionEnthusiasmEncountersDesperateCheerAcademicBrutalForget ItBonusFootball TeamDamesCupcakesScoreboardAcademic Success Author:Deb Caletti
“It seems to me that every phenomenon, every fact, itself is the really interesting object. Whoever explains it, or connects it with other events, usually only amuses himself or makes sport of us, as, for instance, the naturalist or historian. But a single action or event is interesting, not because it is explainable, but because it is true.” FactsSeemsActionScienceSportsInterestingEventsObjectsEvidenceInstancePhenomenonHistorianReally InterestingNaturalistTrue Fact Author:Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
