Answer 2

Reference:

The above lines are from the poem “Confessions of a born spectator” written by “ogden nash”.

context:

the players dont have feelings for opponent.

Explanation:

The poet is a determined spectator. He knows that the athletes play rough. They do not care for their opponents. They are self centered and over enthusiastic which make them indifferent to the feelings of others. Even the umpires and referees are not moved by the injury suffered by the athletes. The spectator finds himself unfit for such roughness and callousness.

Comment:

Though the poet is emotionally disturbed, he takes firm decision of not taking part in any sports activities.
