Who is an athlete? - Page 2

So back on topic...HG do you thinkall that pocket pool makes you an athlete?

Is that where you have a tiny pool table the size of a floormat? Well, that's a thin line there.

Gunz; I apologize for this thread going into the gutter.

Well I agree with yall. On the Olympics I guss if we had any curlers in here they would tell you they are athletes too and why. I personally thought many of what we have discussed are athletes. I think some more than others. Not sold on race car drivers being athletes as much as great stamina etc. I have played tons of sports but have never really liked pocket pool as I tend to think the better athlete prevails once he gets it out of the pocket! Now thats not saying I am any good once its out of the pocket.  You would have to ask my sister, I mean aunt,  I mean wife about that.

Hummer Guy, the gutter, bowling, its all good!

Bob time to run again.

I HEAR YA!!!!

Wow you have really good hearing.

What???

I SAID THAT YOU HAVE...oh never mind.

this conversation should be what you consider to be a sport not who is an athlete................my general rule of thumb is this
 
If you get better at a sport the more drunk you get then its not a sport
 

Then everything I do is a sport because it all goes downhill once I start drinking.

Good One!!!!

As you get older I don't anything you do, at least the way I do it, qualifies as a sport anymore.
