After seeing that video today about the right hand side I thought of a completely new idea on why people like sports more than politics and its very simple. KNOWLEDGE! How many people do you know that can talk about politics for hours without getting bored? None that I know and this is becuase most people are not educated in politics while growing up. Your parents always raised you to understand the cowboys vs. packers not democrats vs. republicans. Without have knowledge on a subject, there is no way you can fully enjoy that subject to its fullest. Those people on the video today had strong opinions about Sarah Palin but lacked any knowledge of what she is about. I think the majority of people in society do not totally understand politics so they never come to actually know it. On the other hand, if you asked somebody what Ochocinco was all about, they could probably give you about ten things including end zone celebrations and child please. It is natural human instinct to favor and discuss something that they understand and are educated on, and in today's society, that just happens to be sports and not politics.
