  Scotsman.com Sport - A Question of Sport
McConnell rejects the idea of a stand-alone sports minister, arguing that his upgrading of the culture, tourism and sport brief to a cabinet position in his first week in power was a signal of how seriously he takes sport.
There are inevitably plenty of critics who can pick holes in the minutiae of the Executive's sporting policy, but there is also a consensus among the range of professional sports administrators questioned for this article that he and his ministers have generally got the theory, if not always the practice, about right.
Although there are sports which have conspicuously bucked that trend - elite cycling and swimming are two obvious examples - it is no coincidence that the dwindling levels of mass participation in key sports like golf, athletics and rugby have coincided with a downturn in performance at the top level.

 Daily Home - Question of sport, non-sport plagues today’s society
But the question that drives me (what is the matrix?) to column-writing today is a different one.
The all-sports network, of course, began this struggle during their infancy, when, in lieu of any contracts with major sport leagues, they put on television any event which remotely involved any level of competition (miniature golf, paintball, dominos).
Air shows aren’t in the sports pages, and a race is very similar to an air show in an ‘event’ sense of word.

 Chinese sports' giant question mark - Basketball - Sport - smh.com.au
Far from being a chance creation, Chinese basketball giant Yao Ming was knowingly bred for the sport, forced into it against his will and subjected to years of dubious science to increase his height, a new book claims.
But sport is such a visible, exciting measure for China's position in the world, and national feeling is so strong, I don't think that's going to be easy to give up," he said.
The book also describes the complex negotiations between Chinese authorities and American sports impresarios who, desperate to showcase the NBA in the world's most populous nation, prized Yao away from the Shanghai Sharks in 2002.

There's a distinction to be drawn, of course, between the excesses of recreational drug use, which is most likely to affect the footballer's world, and performance-enhancing drugs, which have affected sports such as athletics, swimming and cycling for many years.
Ask students to choose one of their sporting heroes or heroines, and to list the qualities of that person.
Focus on the close relationship that has developed between sport, celebrity and business (exemplified, of course, by the Beckhams), and invite your students to utilise their knowledge by devising a range of sports products (such as clothing, trainers, holdalls, shampoos) to promote drug-free sport.

After all, one didn't have to be a rocket scientist to know that pitches would have a little more grass and bounce than you see at Brabourne or, say, Multan, where batsmen need to be blindfolded to give the bowlers a fair go.
Tendulkar will no doubt at some stage explode and all India will think there is a resurgence — sadly that would be flattering to deceive.
The problems for India are more in the head than in the technique at the moment and it's going to take some serious soul-searching and answering the hard questions for that man in the mirror to make this tour one to remember.
