Sport implies competition. NO competition, and it's just a recreational activity or exhibition ie. posing or activity, not sport.
I'll take it one step further and say that unless you can objectively find some sort of distinguishing rules by which competetion is filed by, then it's not a sport, ie no subjective judging for real sport. Time is usually that objective judgement for motorsports.
Ice skating--sport? Hell no. Road racing---sport? Absolutely. Riding on the highway or street? Only if Jazzercise counts as a sport.

Mods -- can you please relink this ENTIRE thread to the entry on sport on dictionary.com? That way, everyone who thinks they are Merriam Webster will have to wait for Sawzall's next post to continue beating the dead horse.

My wonderment that such an innocuous post regarding semantics could spawn such a lively discussion in that direction and a amazing myriad of others as well!
BARF message threads remind me of linear accelerators... A single discrete particle of matter smashes into a target and spawns an infinite possibility of new elements! Including anti-matter, which is so clearly represented in this analogy by certain members who shall remain nameless!

Recipe for Epic Sense of Wonder:
-fresh mint
-bourbon
-simple syrup
Crush mint at the bottom of a highball glass. Fill with ice. Add 2 oz bourbon and simple syrup to taste.
Replenish freely.
Hold on... I might have this confused w/ a different drink.
