WKYC Channel 3 "Sport" is a fun word, its plural form even more so. But in its best format, it's complimented by an exclamation point for additional verve and flavor.
"Sports!"
See?
It's an enjoyable word, not just because it's fun to say aloud but because all of its connotations and meanings are fun, as well. The same can't be said for all words; you're usually bound to get some negative connotations in there.
Take "swell," for example. While that word used as a 1950s-style innocent expression has a fun meaning — "Gee ma, that's swell!" — it can also turn dark pretty quickly. For instance, a big wave is called a swell, and those can be dangerous! An infected goiter also can swell, and that's gross!
But with "sports," it's a fairly merry word across the board.
"Sports," as in activities, are naturally fun by design because that's their whole purpose, and even if you're some weirdo who doesn’t enjoy playing sports (like my hapless asthmatic sister), there's a good chance you at least enjoy watching sports in some form and just allowing the professionals to do the sporting for you. Totally fine.
