Taking sport less seriously

This blog, I've pretty much stopped it, there's so much on it which is so completely wrong, it's hilarious. Judgements, predictions, character assassinations. It's actually rather marvellous to be wrong about sport in most cases, the only cases where it's a bit gutting is where you vouch for the honour and good character of heroic figures, and they turn out to be way below expectations. There are plenty of those ... Anyway, that's all. I'm stopping this blog because, though sport needs taking seriously in some ways, since sport is marvellous and better than most things, I don't appear to be the right person to take it too seriously - best to treat everything I say about sport with an enormous pinch of salt.
