Why, sick of losing to them?

Blewy · 23-09-2002, 04:29 PM

How can u say Horse Racing is boring????
:O:O:O:O:O:O:O

It is one of the best sports to watch, even without money riding on it, and when therre is it just makes it even more entertaining....

But u gotta be in it to win it...

Hmmmm.... too hard to choose from - they're all good to watch. But if I had to choose - probably Chess.... however.....

Did you guys hear that the IOC (Olympic Commitee) rejected a proposal to include Chess in the Olympics, as they said that it is less-of a sport and more-of an intellectual game.

I totally disagree. You use your leg muscles in the 100 metre sprints, your upper body in shot-put.... and you use your brain muscle in chess!!!

See... perfectly resonable!!!

(actually... in retrospect, it may have been the Commonwealth Games committee that rejected it - can anyone clarify this??)

i was reading just the other day that chess was supposed to be included as a trial sport at sydney 2000. But something happened to prevent it taking place, not sure what though.
But i cant see the point of watching a chess game, its not like you can cheer or anything.
Imagine trying to start a mexican wave at a game of chess.

Anoop I think synchronised swimming deserves to be on that list

Eyes_Only · 24-09-2002, 06:28 AM

Even though I love playing it...golf is the worst sport to watch. It puts me to sleep without even trying!

Umpire Money · 24-09-2002, 09:05 AM

golf isnt a good watching game
tennis isnt good either unless someone nice is playing(eg anna kornikova)

they are all better to play
