Support NeoGAF

[EverydayBeast]

It makes my blood boil seeing the sports world lose concentration (Credit to UFC on putting out shows during these times) and I’m not specifically targeting the MLB, NFL or NBA but we are getting athletes losing focus, calling out athletes. What do you think sports GAF are athletes too attached to politics these days?

 

[DKehoe]

Athletes have always spoken out about politics. It's not new.

 

[Kev Kev]

[Vicetrailia]

[Lrnex]

There hasn’t really been much sportsball this year to be focused on

 

[DunDunDunpachi]

Entertainers and academics have always overstepped their fields of expertise to play Moralist and Political Pundit.

On rare occasion it works but usually it's just sloppy-thirds of some other politician's or pundit's opinion.

Pro Athletes are attached to money. And the trending political opinion sells jerseys.

Don’t worry dude. Lebron’s got your back.

Truth be told, I think sports would provide a good break for people in these stressful time. I just feel that the most outspoken players support politics that defy logic until you realize they are also financially driven.

[Decontamination Silo]

The public is too attached to athletes.

 

[Slings and Arrows]

You're asking a bunch of neck-beard, arm-chair analyst, console-warring, obese virgins about sport?

That's a bold strategy cotton, let's see if it plays crysis.

Players that divert their time and focus on things other than their craft give players that stay focused a better chance to win some games. Sportsmen can talk now, but once they go back to playing some games they can't spend too much time on anything else if they want to win.
