Antiathletic

While a new breed of self-indulgent athletes resisted discipline and sacrifice, antiathletic faculty were jealous of the coach's popularity and salary.

Tragedy developed affinities with civic ideals of restraint, manly control, and heroic discipline, but comedy, and in particular the comic body, developed affinities with anticivic excess, sexual abandon, and unmilitary, antiathletic slackness.
