Golf is a sport, but I don't consider golfers athletes.
Nascar is a sport, but drivers aren't athletes either.

When I'm looking for something to watch on TV. I go straight to the sports channels, ESPN, ESPN2 , whatever. And it is so stupid to see the World Series of Poker on ESPN. How the hell is playing cards a sport. Don't they have a game show network or something for that s**t.
