Re: Sport or not?

If ESPN shows it, it's a "sport", right? If so, poker is a sport (definition-wise, it's a game). FIRST beats poker at being a sport. (Not to mention that ESPN used to show FIRST championships, IIRC.)

Different people will see it different ways. I think it's a sport for the mind.
