Sport? Oh yes, of course, ha ha.

After hearing about Alex ("A-Rod") Rodriguez, which comes after so many other "revelations" of other "sportsmen" who have cheated their competitors and their fans to the point where all serious people have decided that sport is simply a way to cheat people (fans and competitors) out of more money and make their various "games" much more expensive to attend, I looked up the word "sport" in a dictionary.

It said that "Sport" was an athletic activity requiring skill or physical prowess. Also it could be used to describe jest; fun; mirth; pleasantry: "What he said in sport was taken seriously". Also, mockery; ridicule; derision: "They made sport of him". It describes an object of derision; laughingstock or something treated lightly or tossed about like a plaything.

Oh, OK.
