Does it?

Athletics wasn't designed to be entertainment. It was designed for the athletes themselves. They do it for fitness, or the mental health benefits, or for their own entertainment. It doesn't need to be televised.

If people want to watch, great, they're welcome to. If not, even better -- let it get back to its roots.
