I've stopped putting any money/attention in organized sports quite some time ago, I was disgusted my money-first orientation of basically all of them and how everything was focused on sponsorships, promotions etc rather than actual effort. Morals often go down the toilet, like in cycling.
Anyway its infinitely better to focus on actually doing the sports rather than just watching them passively.
I make exceptions from time to time, but only for more or less marginal sports without big bucks. If folks do it mainly because they love it, then count me in. Climbing seemed for a long time doing just fine, but its also changing, and with introduction on olympics I may start skipping that one too.
All those that spend money on this are partially guilty... vote with your wallet and your time (which for ad business is money at the end).
