What makes FRC a sport?

[JoshWilson]

FRC is a sport, because we put in just as much time and energy, if not more, than everyone else, plus it's exciting to watch and participate in.
I think it would be great if we could get FRC on public television. It would help convince more schools to have teams, would let more people become interested in it, and would promote STEM, which is one of FIRST's goals.
People liked Battlebots, and if the GDC continues to make games exciting and interesting, I think it could really attract an audience. Just as long as there isn't any more games like recycle rush, because that wasn't to exciting.

The only problem I see however,is deciding which events to show, unless they do it by region.
