[in a well equipped sports room, a character rants] Someone has to say it… Some athletes have an advantage over others and it's ruining sports!

[in a soccer field, a smug character points and replies] Damn right buddy, that's why we should ban privileged kids from competitive sports: their wealth gives them access to better equipment, coaching, sparring partners, free time. it's just unfair to the rest!

When it comes to sports a the highest levels, you either win or lose at birth. If you lose that lottery, too bad so sad. If you win that lottery, Congrats! Here's your gold medal.

For that vast majority of us, playing a sport is a hobby and nothing more. And that's just fine.
