    Any Women's sports really.

    You're talking about a novelty when anything other than men are competing at something.

    Its like "Oh good for them, they sure do try"

    Agree with all three. Although NASCAR should be replaced by the more generic "auto racing."

    I sweat a lot when I'm outside in August, does that make walking down the street a sport?

    I sweat for about 3 minutes when I watch youporn. Masterbation = sport.

    Anything (like figure skating, gymnastics, and diving) where the whims of judges determine the winner is not a sport. Yes, they may be athletes. It may be a competition. But a sport is decided between the contestants and not some third party from Uzbekistan.

    Scrabble
    Spelling

    Yet they both come on ESPN.

    I'd also say

    Curling
    Bowling

    Though it really depends on how you want to define sport.

    You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to rimrocker again.

    Are you competing against someone else to see who finishes first? Then its a sport. Sex is definitely a sport. :D
