Then I suppose having sex with the Babysitter is a sport.

Fishing? No, but it occupies the stud for days on end.

How about rodeo? Yes. Hey, most of those guys are tougher than the old Dallas Line.

Hunting? No. The deer don't have guns too.

Shuffleboard? Eh?

Chess? No. Computers are taking it over.

Barbequeing? Only in Texas. You could get hurt playing BBQ down there.

 

[Sparky Kronkite]

Yes.

"Then I suppose having sex with the Babysitter is a sport."

One of the best and most dangerous of sports - yes.

Think we'll see Olympic Baby Sitter Fucking anytime soon?

I'd watch.

 

[Purple Haze]

Oh yes, KM, cowboys are tough, at least the real ones.

But is it a sport?

 

[Sparky Kronkite]

I happened to see Urban Cowboy the other day....

Or I should say I saw a few minutes of it - that's all I could take.

Give me a break?

Disco meets Houston!?!

"Houston we have a problem!"

"And it's some fag lookin' Italian dude - in a silk shirt/nipple protruding, JordeAsh jeans and platform cowboy boots."

"It's giving me Saturday Night Fever just looking at him."

Mechanical Bull Shit - I say.

Why did they make this movie?

 

[KillerMuffin]

I think so.

It serves no purpose beyond entertainment.
The persons participating in the contest either win or lose.
Winners traditionally win money. Loser come back next year.
It has an association with initials.
Winners often receive advertising contracts.
Certain participants are singled out for the looks, abilities, and photo-op appeal by the media.
They have posters with the participants on them.


Sounds just like Football, basketball, baseball.


Why must a sport have a ball to be a sport?

Do bear in mind that cowboys and rodeos aren't necessarily the same thing.

 

[Darien]

It takes balls to accomplish some sports,,

skiing = sport with big ones

curling = depends on whose couch you use whether it is a sport

badmitton = sport with the right idea towards naming of the ball,,( shuttlecock),, more of a bedroom sport

bedroom golf = challenging sport?

some of the bull in sports does NOT include the term mechanical

Hunting?

Shuffleboard?

Chess?

Barbequeing?

Fishing could be considered a sport because if the guys do it enough it pisses off the wifes because they aren't home alot.

Rodeo is a sport so is Hunting and shuffleboard, chess is sort of.

Guys would like barbequeing to be a sport I think.

Gold and Curling are as well

Drinking isn't.

 

[Cheyenne]

HEY! Fishing is a sport! My vacation is a fishing vacation. It just happens to be too fucking hot to be out on the water today. Again. (I like cool libraries instead. )

 

[Problem Child]

Rodeo is not a sport, it's legalized insanity.

Hunting and fishing are pastimes, unless you do them for money, then if it's fishing it's a sport and if it's hunting it's an occupation.

B-B-Q'ing is another pastime/hobby.

Golf is a game.

Chess is a mental exercise.

Stock car racing is a sport.

Wrestling is just stupid.

Getting technical

 

[Mensa]

C'mon be a sport

They're all sports(barbecueing excepted). However, some are athletic and some aren't. That's why we differentiate with the terms "athlete" and "sportsman".

Sport is a generic term.
