28. I can give you the violent culture thing
but...you said 'hate' and hate has a definition and I went with that. Sports, done properly, teaches values that can be very useful later in life. And while, yes, there is a winner and a loser in most sporting events, after the event is over, you go back to being what you were before...if not a little closer. God knows, I made more than my share of friends through sports that require physical contact.

By the way, I am VERY impressed that you were a two sport athlete in college!!! I had a difficult time keeping up with baseball at my Division I school...thank God for baseball...I would have dropped out for sure without it!
