Sports: Simply The Best Form of Education

There is no greater reason to go to school, than to play sports. What other reasons would a student want to get up every morning than to go run in the gym. Teachers love when students come up to them and tell them that they will be away due to sports. Teachers just love the thrill of rearranging their schedule's and lesson plans, it keeps their life exciting. And now all the other students who do not play sports get to seat in half empty classrooms and catch up on the work they didn't miss; it's not like the classes are important anyway. Another reason to love sports is when one sport season ends, another one begins so you don't have to put up with any downtime between seasons. Sports also provide a great use of the gym, it's not like we have any classes in there or anything. Everyday students get to listen to the accomplishments of their peers who score the winning basket, or ran the fastest lap. Sure, other students were out working jobs, or volunteering, but that's nothing to running a circuit on a track. Sports also provide a great way to fill up the time on announcements. We have 10 minutes of every sports replay, and swish everything else into about 1 minute, who is really listening anyway. Sports provide at great place for students to display talent. Forget about students who play instruments, paint, sing, act or write, those requires no talent at all; no sports is simply the only form of pure talent. Nothing helps learning like spending every Friday-Sunday playing on the courts, and heads out of the books. Look at all the energy you use to lift books. No, that energy must be saved for sports. Schools need sports so they can include everyone, sure they only allow 9-12 people on a team but this let's everyone know who is the most important. So if you play in the band, sing in the choir, volunteer with the leadership class, just drop everything your doing and go cheer on the real talent, the sport stars.
