I think a lot of you don't really understand Nascar or auto racing in general. It is MUCH more physical than you realize, and it takes a great deal more hand-eye coordination than most realize too.



People say that, but it's BS. NOT A SPORT

So you think curling is more of a sport than golf is?


Do you know what curling is?


Further, I'm pretty sure more Americans actually play golf than basketball, but what does that mean?



It means you're biased.

I didn't say that golf isn't a sport, the question of the thread is "which sport do you consider least a sport". I pick Golf.

Any way, I'm fairly sure more americans watch basketball than Golf so I guess America agrees with me: Golf is boring as hell.

I don't know how you would even begin to prove that assertion...

I'm an American so curling is as foreign to me as Jaialai and rolling cheese wheels down a hill are.

High Wire walking is now a sport because I can die from doing it. Slamming myself in to spikes...a sport. Choking myself...a sport.

How many people died from curling?

Does that make IED laying a sport? Drunk driving is a sport? seriously you are going to use the people die argument to make it a sport?

Really?

Nope, you're not clever enough to be trolling, you actually are stupid I think.

NASCAR isn't a sport, it's an athletic competition. A sport requires a point system.



Nascar has points. Races give points by finishing place and at the end of the season there is a trophy awarded to the team with the most points.



A point system within the game itself. The 100 meter dash isn't a sport, it's an athletic competition as well. Subjective point systems are they're own classifications called athletic performances.

Stop making up your own definitions. The definition of a sport is: "An activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others."

You're trying to judge these events with subjective experiences and anecdotal quips.
