Is Bridge a sport? The court must decide. I say no. |

Quote: the judge who decided there was a case to answer, Mr Justice Mostyn - himself a bridge player - declared at the time of his ruling: "You are doing more physical activity playing bridge, with all that dealing and playing, than in rifle shooting. I'd say that rifle shooting does involve physical activity as to aim properly you need to be able to control your body and breathing as you concentrate. |

A sport, for me, is something that requires an element of physical skill (be that sum, steadiness, speed, strength,,etc. So: darts, bowling, baseball - sports. Chess, bridge, my little pony - not sports. |

No, Snap is pure mental stamina and grit determination. You clearly have been playing snap against weak opposition. At the cottage: I bet you shots (of Ribena). |

Remember the War Z, which was basically a DayZ ripoff? Well they've re-released it as 'Romero's Aftermath'. Great, you think, one the greatest horror movie directors of all time is involved, might be better this time. No, George C Romero, his son (otherwise known as Cameron Romero). Brazen. http://store.steampowered.com/app/349700/ |

To avoid doubt, we even asked it if was The Child sticking her fingers into other children's mouths. Oh the joys of all this. |
