Stop wasting time watching sports.

It's great if you play a sport, whether varsity, intramural, or pickup games. Relaxing for 3 hours a week watching sports on TV is OK. But more than that is wasting your valuable time. Do something. Get off the couch. Get a life. I know students who can tell me the complete starting lineups of teams and the players' stats, but can't tell me much of anything about their studies. Think about this: the reason pro sports are on the media is not to entertain you, but to get you to watch commercials and buy the products. Oh, there is one understandable reason for following pro sports: if you consistently win money betting on them. But I never met students who can truthfully say they have.
