Quote:It is difficult to compare sports,
I like Woods, he seems to be very sympathetic etc. I like golf (play a bit my self) but golf is a game. Giving big price money and having a lot of sponsors doesnot make it a sport.
Swimming, real sport....but 8 medals in all these events that are almost the same is not comparable to what Carl Lewis did.
Phelps is a great sportsman, nice guy, but to me the real heroes are people like Usain Bolt.
I don't get it. A game is different from a sport how? And because Mark Phelps races in the water and Usain Bolt races above the water, that makes the one a "real hero" and the other a "nice guy"? And Tiger Woods is just playing a "game", whereas putting on tight trunks and running for 100 meters is a "sport"? What kind of distinction are you making here? You've completely lost me.
