    That’s how I’ve always interpreted it. Specifically about toxic jocks though, nothing inherently wrong with enjoying sports.

      I felt the same, and I want sports to be a vehicle for teaching people about fitness, and teamwork. I am not sure I still do, it so often dissolves into toxic competition, self harm, injury, violence, riots and a general us against them attitude.

      I hope people get good things from sports and avoid the bad things.

        Plenty of traditionally nerdy things devolve into those as well. Except riots maybe.
