sporting life
Games and competition
A sporting life is one devoted to gambling, drinking, womanizing, and other pleasures associated with the fast crowd—horse racing, card games, nightlife.
The phrase often carries a nostalgic or romanticized tinge, evoking an earlier era's raffish characters: He led a sporting life until his money ran out.
It can also refer to hunting and outdoor pursuits, though this sense is less common.
