I've always been a keen partaker in sport of all sorts but mainly Football, Basketball, Tennis and Athletics....the REAL sports. But what gets right under my manly breasts is people who call some of their lame hobbies - sports, and quite simply they're not.
Obviously you're going to need some proof and some examples to back this accusation up, which I will be more than happy to give you!
Cricket - This in no way can be considered a sport, it's a bunch of middle aged, slightly over weight, balding men tossing a ball to each other and trying to hit it with a plank of wood. They barely run, and barely ever hit the ball, therefore there is hardly no physical exertion what so ever. And why do both teams and the Umpire dress in white, do they not know that it'll get dirty from the mud....oh sorry I forgot there's no chance of them getting dirty because they stand around for hours doing less work than the Labour government.
Darts - This should never ever be classed as a sport. Big fat sweaty beer bellied over 40's play this, and this being classed as a sport is a joke. The people that play darts aren't sports men/women....they're fat layabouts with nothing better to do with their time than throw pieces of metal at a circular piece of cork! Again where's the physical exertion, where's the peak physical condition you need to be in. Darts is just the most depressing thing since finding out Santa doesn't exist!
Snooker - Why is this a sport? Have you seen the freaks that play it....Dennis Taylor, Terry Griffiths, Steve Davis to name but a few. Admittedly they have great accuracy to get the balls into the pockets, but so what....if you were a professional snooker player would you feel comfortable with calling yourself a sports man/woman? If you would then (in a Mr T voice) "I pity the fool".
Horse Racing - Yeah it's a sport, but it's a horse sport. Humans have little to do with the speed the horse can run, apart from the whipping that goes on, but you hardly have to be a sports person to be able to whip an horse! No, you just need to weigh the same as a crisp and to have not begun puberty just yet...then your quids in! I'm sure that Price Charles doesn't call himself a sports man!!...you know for riding cam...oh forget it.
Quite frankly none of the above can be classed as a sport, I want to see people running about pushing themselves harder and harder in an effort to be the best in the world at something that shows that you've had to commit not only your mind but your body to as well, and drinking 8 pints a day to become a Darts player just ain't it. Well I think I've made my point, I'm off to defend the Tiddly Winks World title......"HEY, that could have had my eye out"
