If it have to ask if it's a sport, it's already WAY too much effort for it to consider.

I've done 25-27 mile ruck marches in 12 hours. This thing is pathetic. And it shows you what a shitty person it is, all those volunteers only thought they'd be out there for 8 or 9 hours, tops. But no, pull them away from their families and personal lives for an extra 4 hours because you're a stubborn,narcissistic jackass.

I was about to comment that AT and PCT hikers often hike upwards of 20 miles with a full pack with huge elevation changes. To manage to walk that distance on a mostly flat surface with even footing and no extra gear at only 2mph is just pathetic.

It deletes any comment it takes for dissent, even if coming from its most beloved fans.

It's a sport like archery or shooting, it doesn't require a great deal of athleticism as evidenced by most darters being fat as fuck.

As a Dutch guy though, I still love me some darts.

On darts vis a vis whether it's a sport or not; I consider it a game, not a sport. Yes it takes skill, so does pool (billiards), bowling, golf etc. But you don't have to be an athlete to participate at a high level. A game requires skill, a sport requires skill and athleticism.

That's my take anyway.

I completely agree. My husband and I were having a similar discussion about whether competetive video gaming was a sport or not. He was saying it is because it needs mental fortitude and skill, and I was arguing the same points that you were. A 500 pound slob could theoretically win a cyber games competition; the same fat fuck wouldn't even qualify for any sport in the Olympics. Sports require you to be in top physical shape to compete. Games do not.

Yeah, I guess they coined the new term e-sports for it. I feel kinda the same way about nascar/f1 drivers. They have tremendous skill, and I understand they do some sort of physical conditioning (I wouldn't know, not being a fan) but it's not exactly a sport as the term is generally recognized, so they call it motorsports.

I think that's a good way of putting it. It's not that darts isn't good enough (the hand-eye coordination is incredible), but it's just not a sport.

There are esport players in better shape than this so called "athlete"...

Most of the esport players are humans. I think that says a lot about how fat affects your brain, reaction time, and fine finger skills.

image search here It really embodies the skinny nerd/geek stereotype for most.

Still... we can't forget Desrow from starcraft 2. Super obese, and all of the shItty traits that go along with fats. Manipulative, cowardly, goes back on his word, and constantly shiiiiiiiiiiit talking.

He even did his "I'm trying to go pro" video in a fucking fast food place. What an embarrassment.
