Good answer. As is 'drinking milk'. I 'consider' poker to be a type of cat. There. I'm no more wrong than anyone who 'considers' poker to be a sport. We're flat out incorrect. You can create your very own personal definition of the word 'sport', but you'd be kidding yourself, no matter how many tables you play at once, and no matter what channel you watch it on. :p Don't be ashamed that it's the most physical activity you do all week, but it is simply a game.
 
BTW, I think it's a bad analogy to compare Michael Phelps to some fat linebacker and have him fall short in overall atheticism. If you want an athelete to represent your country for events to be named later, send a triathelete (swim, bicycle, run), not a football player. Some sports require more athleticism that others. But by pure definition, 'darts', 'bowling', 'golf' and even 'pool' are all sports - all requiring a degree of [B]physical skill and dexterity[/B] in addition to the mental acuity.
