Yep. ;D I'm going to come up with a rebuttal by the end of the day.

Still not a "sport" ;D

Just like darts...

Darts is a sport. It's not subjective. You have a clear winner and loser.

Its a ghey, thong pageant. Not a sport.
Darts is a game,not a sport. Millions play the game in a bar, smoking, drinking, eating pizza.
Training is not a sport, its training. NFL players, train very hard for their sport, BB's train very hard for pageant day.
::)
-
This is somewhat of a philosophical toughie...
In my opinion, you need to objectively be able to score goals within defined parameters to be a sport.
Making ping pong a sport by that standard.
So yeah.
But no, I can't call bodybuilding a sport. To take it to its highest level is to essentially lose all your athleticism.

Bodybuilding is not a sport. More like a beauty pageant for muscles.

Even Ramy is getting worse year after year. Dorian and Nasser probably had the two best ab and thigh shots of all time which is
crazy considering they are/were both mass monsters and that should not have been their calling card. The Olympia has certainly
regressed.

What about MMA ,boxing , gymnastics, diving ............. ::)

If BB is a "SPORT" ???, then sumo wrestling is too ::)

it's a male pageant, but if it is a sport that means the Miss America pageant is also a sport.

yes I consider it at the high level of competing a sport.
some people call things "sports or skills" the terms are interchangeable. professional formula 1, PGA golf are sports, ive heard people call them skills - get the fuck out of here with that. Ancient chariot racing is a sport

Race car driving, synchronized swimming, curling, high diving, air plane racing, boat racing, surfing, skateboarding, BMX racing, axe throwing, Rodeo bull riding, calf roping, cigarette boat racing.

Are you sure about that?
maybe a little power as hitting the ball far can take some power
but like my uncles used to say, if you cant get hurt doing it like you can with contact sports such as boxing baseball football etc, then it is for pussies and not a real sport
they believed that in order fof something to be a sport there must be danger of injury like getting an elbow to the belly from basketball, getting nailed in the head by a 100 mph baseball, getting a fuxked up knee from getting hit in football, getting knocked the fuck out in boxig etc
golf and bb have no danger of injury from contact from another participant
in fact the assholes called me a pussy for being a track and cross country runner since there is no contact from others or chance if injury
macho uncles i have

Awfully naive thing to say from your Uncle. I'm not knocking your uncle because he just doesn't realize what he's saying and if you're taking what he said as gospel, that makes you just as naive. Yes, I can explain it.

Golf requires power and it gets you into one of the most unnatural positions at its finishing point in most sports. You think of strength on just a saggital plane (straight). A golf swing begins on a saggital plane but end in a transverse with the lead leg STILL in the saggital plane. In other words that swing just turned into a LATERAL movement not only just placing stress on the ACL but lumbar as well. Take Tiger Woods as an example http://abcnews.go.com/Sports/tiger-woods-injury-timeline/story?id=42708936
While he is an extreme example, most of these injuries are very common with Tour players. The power involved in swing with let's say a driver, is ridiculous compared to you and I. The average is about 112-115mph Tiger at his best was about 121mph. I'm about 108-110 (a few years ago) the average weekend dude is around maybe 95-100mph. Do you understand my point?

Yep, golf does require power and hand-eye coordination, but.... there is no fear of contact like in other sports which require this same power and hand-eye coordination like boxing and baseball
having the chance of gettimg nailed by a hard fist or a hard baseball takes much more guts than not having any of that to be concerned about and also having everyone keep silent while you do it lulz
ie.... Golf is for pussies 😄😂

As an Ironworker I need power/strenght I get into many unnatural positions and I got 100s of injuries from it ,is that make me an athlete ? ::)
Now you refute what I posted about Angel Cabrera ,you retarded POS.

Perhaps it more important to think of the word "athlete" on a continuum, instead of a binary classification. Id say that "golfers" can be athletes, but they are on the lower end of the athletic spectrum. They are obviously not athletic in terms of a football or hockey player. If we thought of the continuum as being a scale of 1-10 (0 = not athletic at all and 10 = super athletic), I'd say golfers are like a 1-3. Football players and hockey players are like a 7-10.

Golf is a game, not a sport. It requires skill but not physically challenging. Same as darts, snooker, chess and any other parlour game at the Mirage Hotel.

good point
so in that case bodybuilders are a 1 and powerlifters a 3 and baseball players a 6

So because he doesn't workout doesn't make him an athlete? Dj and I were talking about injuries related to sports, I gave him an example. No, you're an ironworker. You get paid on a hourly wage, it's not competitive. During tournaments, Cabrera will walk an average of 20-25 miles a week up and down hill on a course swinging hundreds repetitions during that time.

I've rucked 27 miles with a 45 pound pack and been fine.
I played 54 holes down in Alabama this past week in 2 days and felt it. There is most definitely a physical aspect to it.

would you consider powerlifting a sport?
football is strange coz lineman have near zero stamina while backs .are fairly fit
the most athletic of sports are basketball and boxing
baseball of football dont require enough stamina as those 2 and stamina/cardio fitness is a very big part of sport or at least it should be

if you say football and baseball don't require stamina it's obvious you've never played the game. you're in eye roll territory here.
powerlifting is a sport - strength and technique

Jesus Christ where do you get this from?
one of the biggest components of athletic ability is cardio fitness/stamina

also baseball and football are games of speed but not endurance
L. Bird or John Havelick could have ran fucking circles around baseball and football players lulz

You've played "a" game not four every week as a living. Seriously, quit trying to compare yourself to a tour player. Seriously, you're making an ass of yourself

Football, even for lineman, requires tremendous endurance and stamina. You have no idea what you are talking about. Not in the same ballpark as baseball.

Any sport, because they are better players than I'm doesn't mean they are more athletic, do you not see the difference?

You people can argue all day and night long and never agree. It depends on how you define 'sport' and 'athlete'.

A sport will reward you for your efforts, bodybuilding does not, no other competitive arena taxes the body so much for so little reward. MMA boxing top 100 guys make a good living and they dont need to spend 80% of their income to stay there. They also dont reduce their lifespan in their preparation, just my opinion.

Blacks were selectively bred; bigger, stronger slaves were quite the sort after commoditiy back in the day...
Works in the aminal kingdom.
There are clear physical/biological differences between the races...
For example anecdotal evidence shows Eastern Euros tend to have shallower hip sockets leading to better ROM/power generation in squat stance etc...hence the abundance of PL'ers/strongmen that dominate from these areas...

"Blacks were selectively bred; bigger, stronger" quite possibly.
Though definitely not for behaviour or brains...

Darts is one of the most fun sports to watch. It's exciting and has close finishes multiple times during a match, plus you get to see drunk English guys dress up like Bert and Ernie.

Funny this thread comes up, one of my trainers asked me this morning if I would want to judge some shows for him next year.
