Good evening. This is Jack Hill, and here is today's sports!

First, baseball. Toronto is in first place. Sam Wilson says that his team is going to
win the championship this year. But, he says that every year.

In soccer, Bill Brown had the best game of his career. The Tour de France bicycle
race started yesterday in Paris at 3 o'clock. Last year, Jacques Chardin won for
France. Can he do it again? I don't know ...

In California, the Children's Olympics started yesterday. Good luck to all the 600
boys and girls.

And, finally, tennis.

Tonight is the big tennis match between rock star Maxi and the famous actor, Peter
Anson. This is Jack Hill, and that was the sports.
People Are Crazy About Sports
by Stan Bruer

Why do people love to watch sports? Professor Len Sanders of Georgetown University
asks this question in his study on, "People and Sports." "We can understand why
people like to play sports. It's good exercise and a lot of fun," says Professor
Sanders. "But why do millions of people pay so much money to watch other people
play?"
Sports is good business. A winning team can make millions of dollars. A
good athlete orplayer can make a very large salary. For example, at the Wimbledon
Tennis Championships, the winner can make more than $2.9 million.
Derrick Rose is a basketball player for the Chicago Bulls. He makes one of the highest
salaries in basketball. He earns about sixteen million dollars every year.
Sports fans, the people who watch sports, often pay a lot of money for tickets to a
game.The MetLife Stadium in New Jersey can hold 82,566 people.
Fans get very excited when their team wins. Professor Sanders now has the answer to
his question: "People love the excitement of a good game."
