It's my personal opinion, and I firmly believe, that it's important that I keep sports and politics separate.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
You cannot mix sports with politics.
This match is about sport and I separate that completely from politics.
Sport allows people to come together, but politics divides people.
I'm interested in current affairs and social policy as a whole, but I don't watch politics for sport.
I don't really like politics that much. And I like the order and simplicity of sports. They have an ending. You can argue with your friends about it, but in the end you still like sports. I almost love the fantasy world of sports more than the real world.
Sports and politics don't mix.
I think sports are meant to unite people.
I have learned, in my life and work as a sportswriter, that big-time Sports and big-time Politics are not so far apart in America. They are both a means to the same end, which is victory... And why not? Victory is good for you, and don't let anybody tell you different.
I'm not into sports, and politics is kind of my sport. I love talking about it and debating it and getting into it. I also think people on both sides of the aisle have real exaggerated, incorrect views of the other side, and that is fascinating to me.
Politics and sports are the same thing in some ways. I like sports; I don't like the sports aspect of politics. The conventions are basically the playoffs, and the election's the Super Bowl. To me, it doesn't feel important.
