It's Not A Sport

It's a frequent discussion among my friends, Is something a sport or not. I would like to share with you my thoughts on the issue.

Robot Wars

Robot Wars is Not a sport.

I mean really ? are you kidding me ?

It's not physical , There is no risk of injury (unless of course a robot explodes and injures spectators) and it's all about the Machines.

Franky the whole thing has always annoyed me. The name doesn't even really work. They aren't even robots they are just remote controlled toys. While they might be cool looking, when you describe a robot (at least in my mind) I think of a self controlled thing. Not a mechanical toy controlled by a radio remote.

At least the the competition isn't normally judged. Usually the winner disables or in some quantifiable way, outperforms the other.
