Whats the difference between a game and a sport?Is golf a game or a sport? What about the olympic games - are they not sports?I think Ronnie O´Sullivan would refer to himself as a sportsman.
b) A particular form of this activity.
2. An activity involving physical exertion and skill that is governed by a set of rules or customs and often undertaken competitively.
3. An active pastime; recreation.
They put as much effort into practice and are dedicated to their snooker. The dictionary also agrees that it is a sport.

Well, cricket is the best sport ever invented, but I'd actually say my favourite these days is golf.
Everyone can watch it and (almost) everyone can play it.
It's a great excuse to get out of the office and ditch work (and be sponsored by your company in the case of golf days).
It's decent exercise too, plus you can catch some sun, while clinching dea ...[text shortened]... ents.
You can successfully play it until you are OLD.
There's just nothing bad about it.
Golf is mostly walking. Y not go on a hike instead

Seriously, don't comment on sports you know nothing about - it makes you look stupid.
