    What about water sports?

    Normally it's done in private between consenting adults, but should it be competative?

    If it's called a sport, is it legally a sport?

    Listen to ****ing Mark Twain.

    Anyway, netball isn't a sport. My missus asked me to go and watch her play. I stayed for about 2 minutes until I realised that when you receive the ball you can't run, only pirouette. Lazy ****s.

    :D

    Would need to be at least three people present to make it work properly, two contestants and a judge. I wish to judge the biggest squirt from a fanny competition<ok>

    Why isn't motorsport a sport?
    You just think it's just like some bloke driving around like a sunday driver...It takes huge physical demands on your body.

    Anything that involves a judge awarding points is not a real sport.

    And as a lot of ' sports ' require quick hands ...
    The gold medal for Olympic freestyle ****ing goes to Gambol.






    ps G, I don't actually mean it-although I do think you were asking for it, and it would have been rude not to oblige.

    Crack/smack addiction also place huge physical demands on your body. Shall we call them sports?

    Good point Tarqs. Too subjective to be a sport.

    This, although it can be quite good when the lazy cows do actually get some pace up and a bit of bounce<ok>

    Also...goal attack?

    What else would you be ****ing attacking ffs?

    Same for Goal Defence.

    Silly ****s

    It's like touch rugby, ****ing waste of time.

    Rounders was invented by William Webb Ellis in 1948 when he was watching the European Synchronised Swimming Championships in Zaire.

    Not a lot of people know that................
