Pro Bowling: Athletes or just an Elite learned skill?
PBA Bowling on ESPN! The coverage is excellent!

Bowlers are to athletes what curling is to sport.

any "sport" that has a bar that's accessible to the players during a match is not a sport.

So if you're playing golf it depends on where your playing if it's a sport or not?

I'd say a person could drink while playing a lot of sports. And do you think Pro Golfers are drinking during a round? They aren't.

My rule applies specifically as to whether or not I feel it appropriate. For instance NASCAR is not a sport because I think it would be socially acceptable to operate race cars at a high rate of speed while drinking.
