Is there a good definition for sports? I can't think of one that I like. Some say that sports require athletes. Is golf a sport? All you basically do is walk around a field and occasionally hit the ground with a stick. What about driving race cars? All you do is sit in a car and drive in circles. Bowling? Stand up, walk a few feet, roll a smooth ball down a smooth piece of wood, sit back down (oh, and I forgot that you have to wear a silly shirt).
All in all, I think the definition of sports should read like this: a gathering or event in which ordinarily normal people participate in abnormally bizarre behaviors, accentuated by anger, obnoxiousness, cursing, rowdiness, and so on.
This post is dedicated to the crazy that is in all of us. Do you love certain teams? Certain players? Did you name your daughter Lebronda because you weren't sure if you'd have a son and you just had to pay tribute to your favorite player? Then you just might be prepared to either accept or vehemently reject any sport-based opinions from Brilliant Observations.
