Nope. Never saw the point?Never played competitively? I played soccer up to a high level then Alpine skiing race and later in my late 20 Triathlons.
Watching the Olympics gives me gooses bumps. Any sport as long as I see them giving it all. It gives me goose bumps and I almost cry every day watching the Olympics.
I know the road to get there is so full of sacrifice. I feel them.

The “Games” take toll on all the “athletes” who could do so much better with their early 20’s pursuing a career in something useful rather than going broke when the olympics are over. There is no future for old “athletes”, not after the olympics. There’s no payday just bragging rights. And that’s only for the ones that are successful. 99.5% won’t win anything. That’s a terrible ROI.
Get back to working at something productive rather than something as self absorbed as sports.
