Well done Phil

BMX was in the 2008 Olympics.

Can we suggest that it is made one then? I can remember the advent of syncronised swimming in 1988. Is drinking beer really fast one of the events.

[Mick-Talbot]

I would love to se the 'yard of ale' race in the Olympics

[DaisyNonna]

Even I can hit a dartboard with a dart. May be a skill but not a sport.

[Mick-Talbot]

I will refer you you my 21:16 answer, Daisy.
If shooting and archery are sports ..........?

[HowardKennitby]

I think the concept of a 'sport' has long been lost in the shadow of Mammon.
If the IOC can get a good deal on the TV rights then you will get in.

Distance between player and target? Allowance for weather conditions? Is alcohol a banned substance? Takes place in a location where youngsters are safe, nurtured and encouraged towards a healthy life-style?

[Mick-Talbot]

Crosswords are a sport....

I can't make head nor tail of your last reply, Daisy

[DaisyNonna]

So you don't get a gold medal.

Distance between player and target? Allowance for weather conditions


Think of boxing, judo etc ....

Distance between player and target? Shorter than the distance of a dart player and the target.

Allowance for weather conditions ......much the same for boxing , judo, swimming...well any indoor port really.





Takes place in a location where youngsters are safe, nurtured


Lol ...do you think they would hold Olympic darts in the Red Lion ?




Meths?
