Ok, lets discuss this more serious. Mousethief insinuated I am a big ego or have a big ego, and that made the discussion not like it should be.

I think to call an activity a sport, there should be a certain need for a trained body. And then I mean physical training on the heart and the muscles. I think these activites are not sports, because you can almost be as overweighty and unhealthy as you want, and still do it quite good:

-snooker -bowling -baseball -gun-shooting -dart -chess -card(bridge) -bow and arrow-shooting -playing tetris on a computer(you have to concentrate!) -and golf. Yes, golf is not a sport. Some of the golfplayers dont even want to walk after the ball. They are using a small car!

.... and probably more that I dont remember right now. But funny enough, some of these activities are of some people looked at as sports. Sports-channels on television sometimes show snooker-games. But snooker is not a sport. Lets rather call it a "hobby-activity".

What I think are sports, however, are for exempel:

-ice-hockey -soccer -handball -running marathon -boat-rowing -swimming -boxing

What do you think about this, annamill ?

Re: clifton 53 ",," Baseball is not a sport because IT JUST ISN'T!!!! " I wrote this to explain that its not me who decide if an activity is a sport or not. Swimming is a sport even if you and I should think its not a sport. If you have a green car, then the car is green, even if your neighbour thinks its black. If you have a green car, then the car is green because IT JUST IS green! Got the point ?
