    I understand your point, but I don't see them as mutually exclusive. To me, you are saying something like: You wouldn't say you'd prefer seeing a child's drawing to a Picasso (one would hope.)

    Picasso could paint in amazing realism at age 12. It took him (he said) much longer to learn to paint like a child.

    I understand your point too, but you made my deeper point, there. Small kids play for the sake of playing the game and not 'to beat' someone else. I like games more than the competition. I doubt you could 'beat' small kids at a 'who can be the least competitive, contest.'

            Either college football or Major League Baseball. For playing, though, I prefer basketball and soccer.

              Soccer is my favorite sport.. I've played from a team and still play as a hobby and watch every single match of FC Barcelona...

              I like basketball too but last season I didn't watch any game in the Lebanese league...
