I'm no fan of sports. Almost never watch them.
Even a non-fan like me ends up watching the Olympics when they are on. At least the winter ones. The summer ones are boring to me. So I've viewed my share of commercials.
I've been to four sporting events in my life where I had to pay an entrance fee. Spent maybe $100 total on them.
I eat Wheaties for breakfast every day, because I like the taste. I bet a lot of the cost there goes to the athlete on the cover. They cost $4 a box.
I imagine that I have spent a few hundred dollars in my life supporting sports. And I didn't mean to.
If a non-sports person like me has dropped that much on sports, what has an actual fan done?
Sports is like organized crime. It's a machine that generates tons of money. You can't avoid it.
