Re: Sport or not?
Robotics itself is not a sport. However, a robotics competition, depending on your definition, can be a sport.
Some people in this thread believe that classifying the FRC as a sport degrades it, possibly because it gives the impression that winning is the ultimate goal. We all know that this is not the case. If you want to be more precise, you should say that the FRC is a very unique sport. I do believe that the FRC is a (very unique) sport, but I will agree that it's not a sport in the "traditional" sense of the word, and it's probably not the first thing that comes to mind when one thinks of a sport.
