You got me! Red handed... can't talk my way out of this one, you're too good Ida.

LOL i miss this.

Also Nascar drivers can totally be athletes, just like school teachers and Janitors can be athletes, but their profession does not make them athletic.

On the other hand a professional football player or a professional soccer player has to be athlete to be in the sport. Thats my opinion

IDA why you got your panties all in a bunch over this does your Wife who happens to be your Cousin drive NASCAR or something?

The fact that I'm post this article off bleacherreport makes it all the more worthy.

Clearly all NASCAR fans us the same logic when identifying whether or not NASCAR is a sport. I love the first rant, explaining why NASCAR drivers are in fact, "athletes".

"I will be the first to admit that a NASCAR driver does not have the physical talent that someone like Tony Romo or Kobe Bryant may have. They may not be able to throw a ball 60+ yards or dunk a basketball 10 feet off the ground. But can you sit there and tell me that Tony Romo would be able to get into a stock car and drive for 4 hours at 180+ mph? How about Kobe Bryant?
No."
Same logic as Ida, "physical athletes can do this, and that, but can they drive a car fast?!" -- Cool.

Funny thing is we agree on that part, we're not like Cartman saying that to be successful in NASCAR you only have to be poor and stupid lol. We're acknowledging that it is a very challenging and physically draining thing to do. But in no way, shape, or form is driving a car athletic.

You can think what you want to think all day long , but facts are facts !

Because sports science is a respectable counter-argument..

I don't see how referencing South Park discredits anything I said...

Sports Science is cool. Having good reaction time and being fit are great and all, they're only good atributes for an athlete to have but having those atributes doesn't make you an athlete. Bottomline is driving a car, as challenging as it may be, does not make nascar drivers athletes. I'm not saying a nascar driver can't be an athlete, I'm sure some of them were probably pretty good athletes in high school. But I don't consider driving a car under any circumstances an athletic activity.

It depends on the episode. The only ones that I've really liked is the one with Fitz and Brees. The rest (that I've seen) are full of a bunch of useless information.
