Why the #3!! did people bother posting after Wobbles ?
saying smash is a SPORT because [insert other activity that may or may not be a SPORT here] is considered one is kind of dumb. Just because many people confuse/just fuse the idea that competition=SPORTS (a concept promoted by sports networks covering non-traditional sports) doesn't mean they are right.
Now on to random points brought up:
1. Whoever quoted one line of one persons argument, replied inanely, and then picked another line from someone else: you showed you didn't really read exept to find something to argue with, a really bad way to "win" anything.
2. Cheerleading: It takes practice, and physical adroitness, and it is a competition, but that doesn't make it a sport. Competition doesn't always equal a sport. There is no definate way to score cheerleading. It is based off of peoples personal judgements on how well you did.
In baseball, you know exactly how to get points. In football, futball, lacross, tennis, PING PONG, there is a definate way to get point/win. In cheerleading, it is simply to "do well/better than opponent..."
3.DDR again, its a competition, and physical, but I can't qualify it as a sport. Maybe because Im a traditionalist, but regular dancing isn't a sport, and giving dancing a point system doesn't make it so.
4. Please just agree to disagree (or just everyone agree with Wobbles). This sin't really productive anymore.
