I think you missed the second part. You know, the part about there being a 'winner' but not determined by a judge. Work on that reading comprehension, bud.
Correct....except boxing and mma have the caveat that they can be decided without judges in lots of cases, so a grey area. But gymnastics, diving, figure skating are all athletic arts. You need to be athletic, but it's an art. And like the academy awards, regardless of how much criteria they fit into their judging standards, it's subjective. So I don't consider them true sports.so by your definition, gymnastics isn't a sport? figure skating? diving? boxing?
Pete Rose doesn’t need anyone else to make him look like a bozo, he did a great job of that all by himselfThere isn't a player living or dead who could make players like Orr , Johnston , Montana , Rose , Pele or Borg look like bozos and it will still be true in fifty years .
This is kind of where I'm at. Read the thread a few days back and was trying to think, but there's always been goats in my lifetime.You’re covering like 40 years of sports in that list. You may as well just say you’ve enjoyed sports during your lifetime.
