People saying lifting is not a real sport

so more than half of the time i'm watching the olympics i'm not watching sport? are you retarded by chance?

To be a sport things have to be physically demanding. Even darts are more physically demanding than videogames. So those people are retards.

A sport in my mind is anything that is physically and technically difficult where you can stop your opponent from beating you, that isn't based on the subjectivity of others.

Races and shit wouldn't count because you can't stop someone from beating you other than by being better yourself. ie Lifting isn't a sport and neither is ice dance
