No, but there are unsavory aspects to everything popular. Every program has something not good in its past or present, whether we know about it at the moment or not. also, nobody gives a poo poo if this stuff affects your desire to watch sports or not. Watch. Don't watch. Who cares.

That loving "I've been doing this longer therefore I care/know more than you" is utterly infuriating to me. Yes it is entirely possible that with age and experience comes wisdom, but it's also possible for people to get jaded, corrupted, or lose sight of why they started inn on this path to begin with. I want to punch that AD in the mouth. I feel bad for the players especially.

"Respect your elders" is a powerful urge he's using it to maintain a dominant position. He's handling the situation, and they're being handled.
