Ok why does PE have such a bad reputation amongst other courses and professions then? (For example the jokes and insults about PE teachers that I've heard from other subject teachers far outweighs any other education jokes)
Personally I just really dislike current day sports and PE (and the media and sponsorship and advertising and money thrown into and around it), and find that the people who do do it, get really defensive and argumentative about it
I enjoy being sarcastic and witty where I can and can take having the piss taken out of me and a joke. My line about kicking a football and counting your heartbeats; well that's what the sports science lot at college did
I'd've not got shirty being told to go away and play with some clay and take photographs
The dumbarses and social issues, the kids who were kicked out of school for violence and drug abuse went to college and did carpentry or sports science, have ASBO's and have at least 1 child before they're 19.... I think you'll agree those people aren't the best examples of budding young sports scientists... and unfortunately not a such a rare occurrence.
As for your statement on Biology Vs PE. I just can't see why both would exist in the same education centre then. If PE = More, Better, and In depth Biology than Biology, why have Biology? I think what you may have meant is that you learn more in depth about various human biological processes, bone and muscle structure/effects etc.
