are you really that desperate for a thumbs up that you'll try and stretch my point to make it look like a infest, giving you the illusionary position of speaking the moral high ground using crap, already answered questions?
what happened to the days of opinions and perspective?
anyways...
Whats wrong with art? It goes back hundreds of thousands of years. It plays a huge part in our evolution. We have galleries and museums dedicated to it. Comparing it to football is just ridiculous. I think you should go back to your sky sports news, we're clearly on different pages.
If you think the below list is just a "few" then we're going nowhere.
Trevor Brooking
Matt Busby
Bobby Charlton
Charles Clegg
Kenny Dalglish
Alex Ferguson
Tom Finney
Geoff Hurst
Stanley Matthews
Bert Millichip
Alf Ramsey
Dave Richards
Bobby Robson
Stanley Rous

Here's a list of footballers with British honours copy and pasted from wiki. The list includes knighthoods.
Year of award Award Notes Ref.

Matt Busby 1968-Jun...
Fair enough. I'm not too aware of what Kenny does away from football but from what you've said he sounds like a good bloke. My point wasn't just targeting KD, all of these football knighthoods. They're all living the dream, being very pampered and treated like super humans.
I love football but...
To get a knighthood for simply playing a game which involves kicking a ball over a line, is just ridiculous. Where is the common sense? He's not a hero or an inspiration, he's just lucky to have been born with the ability to become a very good footballer. He should feel blessed not 'honoured'...
