Olympics

I wrote a little tweet recently. It doesn't really matter what the words were exactly. What matters is this: I am utterly tired of people calling 'any' sport either 'not a sport' or that it doesn't require 'athletic prowess'.

Just because a regular person can play a sport doesn't mean that 'it's not a sport'. I listened to something on one of my favorite shows and heard someone I admire say something that really bothered me. He basically criticized all snow boarders for not competing in a real sport. He also said that they were hippies (a criticism, in his tone)...

I keep seeing everyone make fun of curling.

I just love the Olympics... And it drives me nuts when people just criticize from a completely uneducated front.
