		Sports that required wealth or leisure, such as polo or falconry, were the province of the upper classes, while inexpensive, massed sports, such as soccer, took root among commoners.

		Sports have correspondingly become increasingly politicized, as shown in the boycott of the 1980 Moscow games by Western nations and the retaliatory boycott of the 1984 Los Angeles games by Soviet-bloc nations, an exchange brought on by Soviet actions in Afghanistan.

		The issue of drugs in sports has gotten a lot of press in the past couple of years.
		It can take years for sports authorities to figure out what drugs athletes are using, and even longer to devise effective means of detecting them.
		The only problem I see with this is that there may be drugs or other forms of modification that are unsafe that will give those who use them an edge, and, if we try to forbid their use, athletes may still find ways to use them and beat out their "legal" competition.

		A comparison of the two profiles on the motivation outcomes of enjoyment, effort, positive and negative affect, attitude towards sport, strength and the quality of behavioural intentions, satisfaction, and frequency of attendance showed that participants in the first profile reported higher levels on all eight positive consequences when compared to those in the second profile.
