The Shape of Things to Come

I am going to feature a couple of blogs about sports shortly, and it will be an ongoing affair from now on I guess since sports are something that I've always followed with enthusiasm and passion. Also, there is so much to write about this great lifestyle that we have invented, much more than the simple scores and victories-loses count. Sport is about character and perseverance, about passion and drive in life, about challenging yourself on the long run. But I'm going to stop getting into too much tangents right now and leave that for another time. Because sport can teach us a lot about life, but only if we concentrate on the right qualities and don't always get crazy about the scores and championships. If everybody was watching a game of football because they wanted to know the score, then there would be no difference between watching a live sport event and reading about it or checking who won in the newspaper. It is rather the opposite way, since people get excited by watching a certain player go over his or her limits, or by the effort and the spirit of a team to successfully battling all odds.

And that's why i'm going to start with two great sportsmen who both have shown that they are the best in what they are doing and have won the admiration and acclaim of the public. Those two players are of course Tiger Woods and Michael Schumacher.
