Walsh: Seven Deadly Sins
Page 285: "The thrill was gone, stolen by gimlet-eyed doctors and oily administrators and brainless riders who betrayed the thing they loved the most and screwed friends who refused to join the brotherhood."
Also just read Richard Moore's "The Dirtiest Race in History."
"The thrill was gone" that sums up professional sport, you can't 100% trust anything you see: fixing, doping, whatever...so maybe, unless you're under a kid, professional sport really isn't much worth caring about, mostly circus. Down the local authority park on a Saturday afternoon, that's where we'll find 'sport' as opposed to 'entertainment'.
