It is governed by a set of rules or customs. In a sport the key factors are the physical capabilities and skills of the competitor when determining the outcome (winning or losing). The physical activity involves the movement of people, animals and/or a variety of objects such as balls and machines. In contrast, games such as card games and board games, though these could be called mind sports, require only mental skills. Non-competitive activities such as jogging and rock-climbing, are usually classified as recreations. Physical events such as scoring goals or crossing a line first often define the result of a sport. However the degree of skill in some sports such as diving, dressage and figure skating is judged according to well-defined criteria. This is in contrast with other judged activities such as beauty pageants and body-building shows, where skill does not have to be shown and the criteria are not as well defined. ********************* Therefore...from the average persons compilation of the definition... "dart , pool , boling , golf" are sports. You seem to be projecting a narrower definition of a sport...versus a game. The term discipline refers to the acquired sphere of knowledge acquired when inferring an academic perspective. May also be defined as the information passed on as a disciple from the master. Darts is a sport... So there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lethfisher Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 I am in Germany right now and it is a lot more fun watching soccer when you are in an outdoor beer garden with a thousand screaming Germans haha Giant TV screen and beer always a good combination! I watched a live match of a local club and it was much more interesting live than on TV. Go Deutschland! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbow Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 i think the wc soccer will become more enjoyable now that the teams have to win...instead of just not lose. when the wc was in the usa i finally learned the rules and strategy (enough anyway) and certainly gained an appreciation of the game that i didn't have before. however, it is even more boring watching a soccer team try to protect a 1-0 lead than a hockey team trying to do the same.
