I agree. It's a despicable "sport".

 It's not the sort of sport that I am interesting in, neither to participate or to watch, but I have to hand it to the people who train and practice to do well at it.  My son had a friend who was into it in high school. He was a nice kid and, despite family problems that saw him living with us for about 6 months, he has done well with his life.
