    Baseball isn't a sport.
    It is more of a sport than ultimate, cross country, pool, bowling, cheerleading, golf, chess, fencing and quidditch, among others, and it definitely takes more skill.

    Now, I will be the first to admit that baseball does not require tons of athleticism. But it takes a lot of skill and hand-eye coordination to hit an 85-mph fastball, when you have .45 of a second to react. And I would also point out that you have to be incredibly tough to play the sport, although it isn't as bad as rugby or football or hockey or lacrosse or any full-contact sport.
    lol - did you just compare your glory sport to cheerleading , pool and chess?

    Among others, I mean.

    He mentioned something called quidditch (what the fuck is that) sounds like a very faggy activity... It's friday tomorrow, who's preparing the ceremony?
    quidditch is the stupidest sport played by humans. it is the adaptation of the harry potter sport, except without the flying broomsticks.

    also, i refuse to be sacrificed. Why not OBK?

    No, I listed a bunch of "sports" that are less of a sport than baseball.

    My point was that if you say baseball isn't a sport, then none of those can be called a sport.
    Cheerleading, pool, and chess have never been labeled as a sport. Curling is more of sport than baseball.
    That's not remotely close to true. Cheerleading, pool, and chess are all generally recognized as sports.
    In general, a sport is a game of skill or strategy played by one or more persons in competition against an opposing team, which defines chess and pool as sports. Cheerleading is more of an athletic activity under that definition, but because it's not easy, many call it a sport.
    Chess has never been considered a sport.
    "Until recently, chess was a recognized sport of the International Olympic Committee;[3] some national sporting bodies such as the Spanish Consejo Superior de Deportes also recognize chess as a sport."

    Guess that explains why we've had Olympic Chess.

    Oh wait.

    It's a fucking board game. No one considers it a sport.

    Actually, though, it literally says right there in the quote that it is considered a sport. American football isn't in the Olympics. Does that make it not a sport?

    You say, "Chess has never been considered a sport."
    I show you that the IOC considered it a sport at one time.

    Just because you choose to ignore the very thing that makes me right does not mean you won an argument.

    I'll rephrase.

    Some idiots once considered it a sport.

    They too have come to their senses.

    No one who understands what a sport is has ever considered it a sport.

    It's a fucking bored game.

    Washington. Those are South Early Winter Spire, North Early Winter Spire, Liberty Bell, Concord Tower, & Lexington. I've climbed/led SEWS (3 routes) and Liberty Bell (trad route, not the aid route), but it was summer and they didn't have snow. That was just the best photo I found in the 3 seconds I looked.

    This is how they look in the summer, slightly different angle.

    I was ready to climb Lexington, but one of the other dumbasses on the climb had passed out the night before down in Winthrop in the back of his truck after a night of hard drinking, and somebody stole some of his climbing gear out of the back of his truck, while he lay their snoring.... some climbers are real dirt bags.

    Not easy after sharing a half gallon of BV and coke.

    Very much so, given that a poaster with a handle about yellow snow probably doesn't know shit about mountains.

    Last time I saw a 5th of BV, the Sonics cheerleaders were all bogarting off the same bottle at a party I was at. Seeing them up close, I was struck by just how slutty they were. Much sluttier than the SeaGals (and that's saying something), a couple of whom I went to HS with.

    Edit: Forgot the other point. Cheap booze was outdone by the cheap makeup, cheap hair product, and cheap clothes. Did they get paid anything by the Sonics? Or did they just do it for the BBC?

    Any of them happen to have a father that owned a Mexican restaurant on Roosevelt in the U-District?

    I bartended there for about a year my last year of college, and the owner's daughter worked there as a hostess and was a SeaGal (were they called that in the late 80s?). She was constantly begging me to take her skiing. I never did, but yeah, she seemed pretty slutty to me.

    Couldn't tell ya. I was just struck by the tackiness of it all. Hadn't see such tacky women since I'd been to the Lynnwood Black Angus or some dance joint in Renton or Kent a friend dragged me to.
