Well...that includes golf also....baseball is much closer to being a sport than golf will ever be. Geez..

That’s debatable, but I’ve never called a golfer an athlete.

A Mizzou fan posted this? Weird post. Out of all the college and professional sports teams in your state, the most successful is a baseball team, and by a long shot.

Football takes 3 1/2 hours for 10 minutes of action.

10 minutes of war at every position save place kicker. A baseball player might play the whole game and not get 30 seconds, but that was too strenuous for some, so they created a DH.

Not even close to right. And football players only play half the game. I guess Soccer is the only true sport because they never stop.

A typical player will play a whole game yet clock in less than 60 seconds of doing anything remotely athletic.


It's a competition, not a factory line doofus. There are things going on beyond physical movement.


Man: I did 2 tours in Iraq.

You: Yeah, but how much time did you actually spend shooting your weapon and getting shot at?

Yes. Try to play third base and tell me it isn’t a sport.
