"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh

Just in case you needed additional reasons to ignore professional sports
Next up, football! Then baseball, then curling, then... I was pretty unhappy about legalizing that across the country. It's a $trillion business now. Throwing a few $million at players and refs is chump change. I know a guy who makes suggested bets like how much players will score and other stats. If millions bet on a guy to do something and he stops playing, that's worth a lot. Pretty soon it'll make more sense to bet on pro wrestling.
