ft. Jack Williams / We talk about the roles sports play in society and how they influence the public. We talk about whether sports can be seen as a distraction or if it’s an appropriate form of entertainment and is equivalent to other types of entertainment. We also bring up the issue of idolizing professional athletes especially when it comes to young children and the consequences/boundaries of idolizing an individual in general. We end off our discussion by sharing our experiences as high school athletes and why the educational system over-emphasizes sports and the positive & negative effects of dedicating our time into playing sports.
