Anyone who enjoys thoughtful considerations about sports or applying philosophical concepts to quotidian hobbies should check out Philosophy of Sport. Authored largely by philosophy scholars, this communal blog is dedicated to exploring a number of philosophical issues related to organized sports. Topics include ethical and moral questions (e.g. Should I let my kid play football?); a consideration of the connection between our contemporary understanding of "sport" and the Vedic word Kidra; and an examination of the role of sports commentary in Indian cricket. This website also features links to Professional Organizations, Journals, and Centers and Institutes dedicated to the philosophy of sport for those interested in further exploring the topic.
