golf isn't a sport

[Sparq]

What if the board is, say, 25 yards on a side, and the pieces weigh 200 pounds?

[Spritzup]

If curling, nascar, bowling, women's basketball, and hunting are considered sports I think we can safely call Golf a sport.

 

 

Note that I hate golf, I'm just saying.

[Ruettiger]

I don't consider nascar, bowling or hunting a sport.

For me golf is the most boring sport on earth. George Carlin said it best:

"It's like watching flies fuck!"

[glo]

Golf is the greatest, and hardest sport to play.

Cross Country Steplechase is the hardest sport I've ever played. I think some one was paralised in my division.

[RicardoObviouso]

its boring to watch.. unless you're an avid golfer, then its beneficial, as its been proven that WATCHING golf can improve your game. however, if you're fortunate enough to play some of the nicer courses, and be good enough at it... i cant think of a better way to spend a day.

Don't revive old threads.

haha i love how people get mad when ypu retreive old threads and they get mad if you start new ones where the subject matter already exist.

[Dan #3]

Lauren, it's one thing to start a new thread on a subject when the same subject is covered in a recent thread. It's an entirely different thing to revive a thread that's two fucking years old due to the subject matter.

 

We call that "douche bag-ness."

[Ruettiger]

It's also another thing to add something to an old thread or say something that does not contribute to the thread, such as; "golf's a sport, an old persons sport."

[Lauren]

hmm

well, i don't think its that big of a deal because the old thread was like 3 posts long. it would be stupid to revive a 4 page thread.

[Ravenous Yam]

Have you ever tried to walk 18 holes carrying around a large bag of clubs?

Yes, I've been golfing before.

And it is far from being difficult enough to be considered athletic by any stretch of the imagination.

[ecnarf]

Golf is a thinking man's game.

 

And by that, I mean it's played by corporate executives on their 2 1/2 hour lunch breaks.

[Ruettiger]

A 2

[ecnarf]

They have their assistants do all the legwork for them.

[no yu begin wher i end]

Golf carts are the shiznit.

[Ryan44]

golf is a.....

[redragon]

I can't believe that 3 pages have been devoted to the discussion of golf. Fuck Me!

[RicardoObviouso]

how would you like to be penetrated?

 

 

 

driver, putter or rescue iron?

[Prometheon]

Caddy please.

[redragon]

I think pony wants to molest me.

[RicardoObviouso]

you pretty much asked.

[Doormat]

The clapping in golf is so...enthusiastic...

[ToadMan]

;)

I herby condone the revival of this thread... Since I'm the guy that gets mad when people start new threads on existing subjects. Though I will admit that reviving a thread by adding a glib comment to it is annoying at best. My general opinion is the following: "If it doesn't add anything, then post it". That goes for making new threads and reviving old ones.

 

Back to topic. Any physical activity can be a sport depending on whether or not there are people involved who strive to active excellence through greater physical skills. Golf is one such example. There are people in golf who work exceptionally hard to maintain there physical condition, as well as their skills. The same can be said of any traditional sport such as hockey or football.
