then do i get good exercise when i drive to the grocery store? and the same with hunting (sorry rednecks). if i shoot someone am i an athlete? exactly how many calories did i burn?
 
It is the conditions under which the racers drive that makes it a sport. If for some reason, you are driving on extreme banking inside a 140 degree car- and it takes you hours to get there- then, sure to your first question. As for hunting, I would not call that a sport 99% of the time. If you have someone who is not riding the four-wheeler all over and hiking pretty far, it would at least qualify as good exercise, though. Shooting someone makes you a thug, not an athlete. But keep in mind that even while you are asleep, a small number of calories (not sure the exact number) are being burnt.

I guess if you risk your life driving 180MPH inside a 120 degree oven and the store is 3 or 4 hours away , Then i'd say you were getting good exercise. Also you probably lost enough calories to shed 3 or 4 pounds.

If you shoot someone??? Your a murderer
 
I loathe Nascar absolutely can't stand it, but you have obviously never done any research and are fairly ignorant on the subject. It requires a phenomenal amount of endurance, arm and wrist strength, and skill. Those guys go through hell in the car during the race. There is no question that its a sport. Its more physically taxing on the body than most track and field sports. Its is more of a sport than Golf that is for sure.
 
how many calories do you burn sitting in your moms basement asking stupid questions and wishing women wouldn't always ignore you and snicker at you? maybe being a dickhole is a sport.
