... I'm pretty sure that is not the purpose of sports. The purpose from my perspective is: Advertising, Gambling, and entertainment. Since when has it been at all about exercise? Defensive Linesmen are hardly a "healthy exercise" motivation.

Sports that have little to do with exercise:

- Racing (Horse, car, hound)

- Chess

- MMA (While they are super fit, it isn't "healthy")

- Boxing

- Bowling

- Sumo (nothing healthy there)

... The list could go on, but I think I've made my point.
