For me, I just don't get the appetite for amateur sports, and, think that some amateur obsession is unhealthy, for instance, I HATE when ESPN and the like hype Little League sports, leading to cheating in such endeavors

In an actual example of why this fan hates some of these competitions, I can't help but feel that Kirby Dach's wrist injury, in the World Junior tournament, set back his development as a Blackhawk draft choice, and led the team to lose patience with him, and giving up on him as a top 2 C.
