....a sentiment I share, naturally! :lol: :lol: :lol:
And the answer to your question is'Big Money'.....once it took over sport, it wasn't about the game anymore -you see it everwhere..cricket,football. baseball and gridiron...a game that has been tailored to suit ad-breaks??? :?
And Olympic finals scheduled to suit peak T.V., contrary to the Athletes body clocks ??????
Money and Drugs killed sport long ago, sadly....................
Just watched the end of the Scotland Argetina match live....and earlier, as expected, the 'boks put paid to Fiji. So one Southern Hemisphere semi and one Northern Hemisphere semi guaranteeing a Northern Hemispere team in the final........how convenient!
