An almost impossible exercise. Today, I'm venturing into an almost impossible exercise: engaging the attention of reader who have decided, once and for all, not to read my comments on sport. Clearly, every reader has the right to find no merit in this section: if push comes to shove, I could agree with them. But I sometimes come across kindly readers who, on the contrary, have the amiability of reading this section quite regularly…except when it ventures into questions of sport.
The hope...
