OMG I have to spell everything out. The charity is given to the last one standing or walks out of the mud-hole he or she don’t keep the money they pick who it goes to. I won 2x it gone to red cross US-800.00 each man put in what they can some 10.00 some 300.00 what they can spare and they join into the mud-hole fight we have a medic team by with their Van to boot and fire dept if they not in it they set and watch it and laugh at us. Have 35-50 people into this mud-hole think last year most was 82people in it at one time.

One quick question : this has what to do with "is gaming a sport" ?

Its show that gaming and hand to hand combat sports were in the video-game is not a real sport unleashes something is put down that means something to one, I.E. real pain, Money (a bet low), broken bone's,

Real life sports': were there is something that one can really feel pain, broken bone', or some thing of voluble to one self that’s means something.

Video-game: only a good sport mainly is total fake no real pain in it, no marks of any type to show you had real contact hell you can even run though each others' body has no wireframe at all. the trees' have wireframe to them but not the bodys.no lost of money or work time off for a damage arm/leg so on total fake world.

these are real sports: yes

racing on a real race track one can get kill or feel real pain "sample race car driving".

pool swiming pool or deep driving can get hurt a lot from.

hunting one can show marks and some case die from it.

snooker one can get kill by sharks or snakes bites'.

darts you can still hurt some one or lose money in it.

marksmanship: still you can take chance the gun/rifle blowup in your face

Yea thinks your right
Will using the computer you can go insane from the game if you get to much of it, like praying to your god too much can drive one insane and lose track of life around you. Old story D&D was like that I was a DM master of it, seen a lot of fools get lost into it may be to some goes for play a game in a computer they lose track of the life around them. But I think this is only the case with people with small minded who can’t handle life on the outside world and look for hope or away to lose them self in it all. Sample sex, live chat-room, gaming, betting money, racetracks, playing online game area/looking for love...ECT

pool and darts are sports because they involve physical activity. u are moving, u are actually the one making the effort to throw something, or shoot something. in online gaming all u do it click a mouse and it does the work for u

Sports are something physical ie. running, jumping, throwing. As we all know, NASCAR racing has long been debated a sport, and there will always be an argument about it being a sport or not.But sorry folks, online gaming or whatever is not a sport lol... there is no way it can be

here here:
i have to say your right, but they have to put something into that suit so you lose blood and maybe a shocker of some type so you feel pain and getting hit by a round knock you backward some maybe not 6ft back and one more thing when you run your legs really be moving and you get tire from all the running around and take a break then it be a sport almost for gotting when you shot a gun or rifle off you really feel it.
