And sports do allow us to【B2】______acts that can legitimately be described as【B3】______, thrilling, beautiful, even noble.

To become a star athlete, you have to have an extremely competitive【B11】______and you have to be totally focused on the development of your own physical skills. These qualities【B12】______well make a great athlete,【B13】______they don’t necessarily make a great person.
On top of this, our society reinforces these【B14】______by the system it has created to produce athletes a system characterized by【B15】______responsibility and enormous privilege.

They learn very quickly that they will be accepted by the important figures in their lives—parents, coaches and peers as long as they are【B19】______as "winner".
Unfortunately they become【B20】______and behave as if their athletic success will last forever.
