- Sports
On our fourth episode of the Sports Philosophy Series I bring you my conversation with Pamela Sailors. Pam is a philosophy professor at Missouri State where she teaches mostly Philosophy of Sport Courses which I have become increasingly intrigued by through these conversations. Pam originally started in the bio-ethics world and moved into sport-ethics and philosophy of sport via the performance enhancing drug conversation. She is extremely passionate about sports and is something she has always loved as you’ll hear in our conversation. Today we’ll cover the three main purposes of sport as Pam sees it and why some other traditional answers may not fit the bill. We also discuss some of Pam’s biggest pet peeves and what she sees wrong in the sports world today, namely, sport as a business and the increasing reliance on technology. Pam also points out some things coaches and administrators may take for granted or may not even think about. She brought up a handful of ideas that are going to keep me occupied and wrestling with for the near future. It was an absolute blast having her on the show so please sit back and enjoy my conversation with Pam Sailors on another episode of The Captains Coach Podcast.
