Sports is one of the great perversions

The article discusses the author's personal reflection on sports viewing habits in Slovenia, suggesting that watching sports on television is driven by national and local complexes rather than genuine interest. The author argues that national identity remains a powerful force even in a globalized world, and being Slovenian is seen as both a privilege and a responsibility. This sense of duty is exemplified through actions like climbing Mount Triglav or knowing facts about Slovenian athletes such as Tadej Pogačar’s achievements in Formula 1.
