I too am Australian and detest the fact that somehow we became this competitive sports driven culture. My biggest grievance is that not only does competitive team sport attract hundreds of millions of corporate dollars...but a sizeable chunk of our hard earned tax dollars goes toward building state of the art stadiums for them to show off in...even though our public hospitals & public schools are crumbling. This makes me so sad & ashamed.
