I'll muddy the water further: are NASCAR and F1 sports?

SPORT - an activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment.

thread over

Under that classification, just about anything is a sport.

PGA golf is a professional sport. You going out on the course and drinking 10 beers with your buddies is not a sport, but it is a damn fine hobby.
This 100%

I'm a golf nerd, and have a handicap in the high teens. So I'm not terrible, but I'm certainly not great. The people who are/will post(ing) in this thread aren't competing with anyone. If you want to say you're competing with yourself, fine, I guess - but that's not a sport. If you want to say that you're competing against the course - kill yourself.

It can't be a sport if every hour you're flirting with a college-aged girl who is selling you Coors Light tall boys and Doritos.

Cut the shit people.

Well all you've done is prove my point. You're an antagonizing tool. Good luck with that bud.

Yeah, I agree with you. Me going out and being smashed by hole 8 isn't a sport. Really just an expensive hobby.

Thought we were talking PGA here.

Oh, so a circle jerk can be a sport?

Those circling are competing amongst themselves to finish first I guess?! And you gotta give the person in the center credit...by the definition above, her aspect is definitely a sport

I was under the impression that we were discussing golf overall.

Right. So figure @dabears70 @Chris Sojka and @xer0h0ur are in a circle with a picture of a @remydat post on the floor. The three of them are all jerking it, thinking about how they're going to FUCKING PWN remy's ass in a footbaw discussion. The first one that jizzes over the remy post wins.

I mean, they're certainly exerting effort, and competing to see who goes first. So, by that definition. Those three jerking off to remy is a sport.
