Re: Is FIRST a Sport
Heres my opinion.
FIRST is a sport And here are my reasons. FIRST is a non traditional type sport the same as NASCAR is, where the vehicle is the 'athlete'. Now, before you say that a person needs to be the athlete (as dictionary.com says) Take a look at Thoroughbred horseracing or greyhound racing. Both are sports but the 'athlete' as not a person but an animal. In todays day-and-age machines replace the animal, but the sport remains. I guess it depends on your personal definition of sport (not just Dictionary.com's definition). My definition is an activity that requires skill and strategy to win a competition under a specified set of rules. FIRST satisfies my definition.
