I'm reasonably sure there are other answers for that. Like, you know, killing people for fun and profit becoming illegal as history progressed, for whatever reason.
[ sure he isn't ]
Kinda doubt I'd find ancient sports all that much more compellin' than modern ones, honestly. The pursuit of the ball eludes me. It's there, in like a million different forms, and then you get it, and you like...what. Try to keep it the fuck away from you or try to keep it close, and then like, you get a point I guess??? And you have to interact with it in like all these weird different ways like hello good sir since this is THIS sport I'm not gonna touch you at all because that'd be weird as fuck but since we're in THIS sport I'm gonna rub my grubby sweaty hands all over your body and then chuck you away as soon as I'm done? Why is it such a big deal to have the ball when you gotta like go make some big PLAY for it, why does that MATTER? I get that it does but I don't get why it does.
