my unpopular opinion is that they are a waste of time and effort.

    Right!? Can we not yuck other people’s yum please?

    I wonder what the response would be if the OPs unpopular opinion had been on video games and esports instead? For the record, I enjoy video games.

      You don’t need to bankrupt entire cities to build esports arenas so esports is better.

        On a planet as diverse as ours, there should be plenty of room for both regular sports and e-sports.

          There is plenty of room. But the Olympics insist on changing city every 4 years and building a brand new stadium and village every time. It’s wasteful.
