	Sports and Fraternity: A Role For Sports in Our Trying Times (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
		One of the fundamental reasons sports have flourished in the United States as well as in the other industrial nations, I would like to suggest, is because sports appeal to pre-modern impulses for fraternal solidarity.
		Sports vividly exemplify how such opposing impulses as the individual versus the community, play versus work, and self-control versus indulgence can be checked and harmonized.
		At bottom, however, it is not sports as an art form; it is not the capacity to show how opposing impulses may be reconciled; it is not the power to produce heroes that makes sports so important as an agency of fraternity.

		From the late 1830s some larger sports meetings began growing in size, with fashionable attendance, and increases in prize money and a renewed boom in wrestling followed which lasted until the 1870s, despite temporary decline in the early 1850s.
		Although the appeal of `traditional' sports is often their apparent unchanging continuity in a rapidly changing world, in reality it is inevitable that presentation has to be modified to respond to the changing social, economic, and cultural expectations of the audience.
		Those sports, such as coursing, wrestling, or hunting, which can be seen as `traditional' survivals have received less critical attention, although historians of leisure and sport are now increasingly aware of the adaptability of so-called `traditional' sports, and the way in which so many of their apparent traditions are of comparatively recent origin.

		The game was apparently invented in Ireland in the 1830s and taken to England as a pastime of the aristocracy in the 1850s.
		American-rules enthusiasts enjoy the greater mental challenge of their game, along with the somewhat leveling effect brought about by the reduction in importance of shot-making skill.
		It is a maxim of the game that good strategy will beat pure physical skill more often than not, and this allows players with fewer physical gifts to be competitive in the sport.
