I don't see how chess can be considered a sport, but cheerleading isn't an official sport anymore.

It's a sport?

I was about to disagree, because I love Chess, but then I was like "Yeah he's right..."

I still do not see it as a sport because by definition a sport is an activity involving physical activity/exertion and skill that is governed by a set of rules
I mean yeah, they got the governed rule part. But physical activity/exertion?? Really?
Not tryin to bash on chess. I respect it, but I just don't count it as a sport.
I'm a 3rd year kinesiology major and none of my fellow kines peers see it as a sport either.

When did chess become a sport?
by Anonymous14 years ago
aw come on! cooking is more of a sport than chess. besides, i'd rather watch a cooking competition, at least it's mildly interesting. watching 2 people play chess is like watching paint dry.
