There's a quote that's commonly associated with Ernest Hemingway that goes, "There are but three true sports--bullfighting, mountain climbing, and motor-racing. The rest are merely games." Just a thought.
Also, ESPN stands for Entertainment and Sports Programming Network. So if something is shown on ESPN, it doesn't necessarily mean that it's a sport-- it could just be entertainment, per the name.
I am completely behind the idea that FIRST needs to be as culturally significant as professional sports.
