Is Football Morally Subpar, Especially Compared to Baseball?
There’s an interesting post by Doug Groothuis over at his blog Thoughts of a Constructive Curmudgeon in which he argues that football is intrinsically violent and baseball is, among other things, morally, aesthetically, and intellectually superior, and therefore football should not be supported whereas if a sport must be supported (or watched or played), baseball should always be given priority. I don’t necessarily agree with his conclusion, but he makes some points that really got me thinking. I highly reccomend the read as an exercise in critical thinking. All I know for sure is that football is more fun to watch, and basketball is superior in every way to any other sport.
