minus-squarejordanlund@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·10 days agoI argue if you sweat playing it, it’s a sport. If you swear playing it, it’s a game. :)
minus-squareespentan@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·10 days agoI like “if you can drink and smoke while doing it, it’s not a sport”.
minus-squarejaybone@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·10 days agoTbf, you can drink and smoke doing pretty much anything. Like 50 years ago when air traffic control was arguably safer.
minus-squareespentan@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·10 days agoTrue, but I’d argue you’d have a hard time being competitive in sports if you do that. Well, a high intensity sport, anyway. “Bolt is on track, ready for a new record attempt, there’s the whiskey bottle, and I think he’s smoking Pall Malls today”
minus-squarejaybone@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·10 days agoI could see maybe boxing. Possibly baseball.
minus-squarerumschlumpel@feddit.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·10 days agobehold, johan cruyff: Bet there’s been professional players who drink during the game, especially before 11m shootouts.
minus-squaredangrousperson@feddit.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·9 days agoI raise you Walter Frosch: https://youtu.be/EqekSuj5HCo (German, I couldn’t find a version with english subtitles) Roughly translated: Reporter: So, Walter Frosch, shortly before the half-time the equalizer… Ref: He (Walter Frosch) is a stand-up guy, I’ve known him for many years. He always played clean and fairly, or at least tried to. Reporter: We never had a doubt about that, we just wanted to ask if the 1:1 up to this point was deserved. Walter (with the heaviest smoker voice): Yes, the 1:1 so far is deserved for the other team, but we need to do better in the next half. Reporter: What ist that you have in your football-socks Walter: Cigarettes Reporter: Are you going to pull one through (smoke a cig)? Walter: Later Reporter: Then why do you have them with you on the pitch? Walter: I was subbed in so fast, that I still had them on me Reporter: (laughing) Ah, ok. Thank you
