足球的英雄與英雄崇拜，比棒球大太多了，也大於美式足球，甚至高於籃球。然而，足球卻是民主化最高的歐洲的最受歡迎sport,有趣啊。誰來教我這裡面的sport心理學？又：覺得sport 和exercise 都翻譯成「運動」，不宜。

Sport (UK) or sports (US) are all forms of usually competitive physical activitywhich,[1] through casual or organised participation, aim to use, maintain or improve physical ability and skills while providing entertainment to participants, and in some cases, spectators.[2] Usually the contest or game is between two sides, each attempting to exceed the other. Some sports allow a tie game; others provide tie-breaking methods, to ensure one winner and one loser. A number of such two-sided contests may be arranged in a tournament producing a champion. Manysports leagues make an annual champion by arranging games in a regular sports season, followed in some cases by playoffs. Hundreds of sports exist, from those between single contestants, through to those with hundreds of simultaneous participants, either in teams or competing as individuals. In certain sports such asracing, many contestants may compete, each against all with one winner.
Sport is generally recognised as activities which are based in physical athleticism or physical dexterity, with the largest major competitions such as the Olympic Games admitting only sports meeting this definition,[3] and other organisations such as the Council of Europe using definitions precluding activities without a physical element from classification as sports.[2] However, a number of competitive, but non-physical, activities claim recognition as mind sports. The International Olympic Committee (through ARISF) recognises both chess and bridge as bona fide sports, and SportAccord, the international sports federation association, recognises five non-physical sports,[4][5] although limits the number of mind games which can be admitted as sports.[1]
當我們把Sport視為保持健康的工具，我們永遠也不能理解為什麼歐美國家會有職業球員，而且極為高薪，而且能成為全國英雄──其實原因在於，歐美國家眼中Sport從不是運動或體育，它不是一個工具。Sport就是展現智慧、品格、技巧、力與美的方式。某程度來說，它體現了生而為人的價值與美好，和科學、藝術一樣。
不了解Sport，將它誤解為運動或體育，其實就很難真正了解它為什麼能歐美社會與生活中成為這麼重要的元素，我們的人生也將錯過它最珍貴的那一個部分。
