I don't know what I would call it. No different than greyhound racing to me and I don't consider it a sport. Only difference is you throw a person on the the back of a horse and not the dog.


Do you consider running track a sport? All you did was take away the horse.

I am like Lewis. I don't understand soccer and don't want to. I would rather watch D2 football if there are decent teams playing.

I consider track to be closer to a sport. At least the human is doing all most of the work.

Please, the person is steering and getting telling the horse to go faster or slower, but the actual work is all horse.

I know plenty about horse-racing, and, while the jockeys do matter enormously, the horse is still doing most of the work.

Problem with the Iron Bowl is that it's played when the students are on break. Totally different feel to the campus.
