What is a sport and what is not


Recommended Posts

Hunting - not a sport

1. Its not athletic to sit around with deer piss on you at 5 in the morning just sitting around waiting for the other team
2. If the other team doesnt know they are playing and arent playing on a level playing field (ie: gun vs running for their lives) it is not a sport

Aww, Jeez, not this argument again!
YOU try shooting a deer at 400 yards while maintaining your invisibility and shooting through wooded terrain...
YOU try driving a 200mph car around an oval for 500 miles in 130 degree heat...
YOU try to best Tiger Woods in a round of 18...
But yeah, they aren't sports!
Ok, they aren't, but still...

dude, bricklaying is hard, but it ain't a sport

sports need a ball (or puck), opposable defense and non-arbitrary scoring.

everything else is competitions and games.

golf would be a sport if someone was trying to hit you while you attempt to take your shot. and if someone was guarding the hole.

Haha, that is the shit, my friend.

I love when they interview guys on the 'team' after the race and ask questions about pit times. They always spout a load of horseshit, but its all just fancy hilljack speak for 'we changed his tires fast and put gas in his car and made sure no one was under his tires when he pulled back onto the track'
