Organized Spectator Sports offer people something to involve themselves in along with groups of others, that is of no importance. Activities like these keep those with dim consciouses and unaware people occupied in so many ways that serve the interests of the groups that organize and perpetuate the activities and the accompanying delusions that go along with the whole ordeal.
The price to be paid cannot possibly be fully calculated and becomes routed into the problems that plague mankind. Their time, money and so many other resources of their conscious minds are filled with worthless things and allowed to be pacified for temporary periods of time instead of worrying about things do actually matter.
This becomes like an addiction and can follow people all the days of their lives. It can cripple our society and is crippling our society but because those that are participants need what it provides and are dim to the perceptions of what is really going on, if you are an outsider you would be ridiculed to bring these matters to their attention and called a fool.
To those of the dim conscious their behaviors and needs are unconsciously allowed to be elevated to levels above their own conscious' ability to supervise and guide them effectively. This is as psycho social crisis and is the ultimate psychological failure that a human conscious can succumb to because without help they are powerless to find self stimulation and correction or guidance of their own conscious to perceive and correct their state on their own.
It is a tragedy to the world because if people could find ways to work together and spend the same energies and amounts of time and resources thinking of more practical things that mattered, positive changes could more readily be made in unison. Think of the problems that could be well on their way to being solved if this energy and commitment was directed at social issues and the like.
In high school that was the last time that sports actually mattered in a productive manner, because a group was assembled and they represented your home town and your own school and they got together and pulled themselves up by their boots straps to get themselves into physical shape and developed their own skills and see how they measured up to others in other areas doing the same. It was a way to encourage growth and inspiration to excel and set good examples for others to encourage the same. The games presented social opportunities and the whole thing fostered school spirit which can actually be helpful in some sense to the school itself and the participants in that crucial learning environment that benefited by its being all that it can be as an institution for the student.
So after that, as sports went on because of the enthusiast that were egging for more ways to relate harmlessly to one another. Let's examine some of the things organized sports serve to do in the lives of the fans.
It's a way of building up irrational attitudes of submission to authority, and group cohesion behind leadership elements. It is a bolstering of some of the originally good, but no longer practical and useful, values of the pioneers of the developing world. It shares in tandem with people that first overcame the wilds of our world and developed it. That is done now though so why do we go on and desire to keep these ideals alive. Because we are not learning anything else and we are thus perpetuating what we are and what we know by what we like and creating a viscous cycle caused by our dim conscious perception of it all. These delusions and attitudes then dominate the conscious mind of all these people and the actions and decisions and directions they take and make every day of their lives. Our entire world is affected by the mentality that has been fostered and nourished and protected silently and unconsciously in a large section of our public due to organized spectator sports.
From this, it's interesting to consider the hidden lessons that the football culture teaches whether people realize it or not. Here are a few of them for your consideration:
You are to identify with one team and cheer for them as if your cheering had any influence over the outcome of the game. The reality is you will never have an impact on the outcome of the game. This softens your effectiveness expectations but at the same time increases your zealousness. You begin to be more comfortable with being valued without having value. You get used to having high energy rushes with no positive channels to direct outcomes and they start to serve you only a biorhythm rushes akin to drug hits that comfort you as you itch as you pass through life oblivious to what is itching you and what could actually be done about it. You come to see the support from your brick in the wall but know and come to accept you will never be anything but that brick in the wall and you get comfortable with that as long as you can derive a little joy to keep you happy and passive as you go along.
The hierarchy of winners in a football league is similar to our state of economic corporatism. This is enabled to be shown as what should be fostered and honored because it ultimately will, and it only, will provide what we all need. We can devise a system and honor it that can allow for and should allow for only one winner on the top of the pyramid, just like how we now have 1% of the population in the US controlling 40% of the wealth.
The unfairness of the capitalism relating to consumer goods you may purchase at a game is celebrated and accepted as a homage to this great system that is being celebrated and played out in a representative fashion that subconsciously will spill out into the streets and strengthen your livelihood and support from and for similar economic systems in the real world. In essence you are giving an offering with your extremely high food costs and saying I believe in what we are promoting because if applied to the real world it will also serve us well. I demonstrate this by my willingness to be abused as I pay 3 times more for things in this place than I should be. I know I am ultimately doing good and setting a good example by may actions.
It becomes a more engrained compartmentalized social norm to be sitting next to a complete stranger being shown how acceptable and expected it is to be societally allowed and encouraged to pay more attention to the event rather than focus on engaging in a meaningful conversation with those around you. Agin you know your affects on the scenario is nothing so why try. Just learn to live with it and enjoy the ride.
The tremendously large scale corporate sponsors of Organized Spectator Sports are offered a tremendous opportunity to aid in their public relations efforts to come off to the public that they give more than they take from the community.
Referees, make decisions that affect the outcome of the game over and above group decisions or other systems that could be promoted and of course regardless of the consensus of the fans.
The susceptibleness for those with a dim conscious to become heavily engaged in all things of spectator sports is alluring and all embracing. What it is ultimately then teaching is that better to be like everyone else and become extremely captivated and emotionally involved in an outcome over which you have no control and expect no tangible benefit from the experience. Sort of like life and the way all the systems of it go but few see it as they have become desensitized and taught to accept and actually promote and share their love of their state of misery.
The sociological adverse impact of promoting organized spectator sports, which closely amplify similar ideals such as together the forces of ruling will over throw that which plagues man and selling it at a high price as a mass distraction dates back to the Colosseum around 80 A.D. in Ancient Rome.
The entire effect can be boiled down as so many of the things I talk and counsel about, as nothing more than a delusion which is self perpetuated by the collective dim conscious mentality of man kind. It is your responsibility to see it understand it and heighten your consciousness to deal with it effectively and then intern over come and share your growth with your fellow mankind who are still spending their lives as victims.
