What is a sport anyway? Is baking a sport? #tbt

I’ve been missing teaching lately. I’ve been thinking about some of the fun classes I’ve taught in the past. One of my favourite was philosophy of sport. I’m also supervising a PhD student right now who is writing a dissertation in philosophy of sport and one of the questions he’s interested in is whether e-sports should count as sports.

So when this post showed up in our stats report, it got me thinking about other things that might be sports.

Nicole considers baking as a sport. What else might count do you think? When the kids were little I joked that getting them out of the door for school felt like a sport. It was certainly exhausting.

  1. Oh, those amazing pictures make me feel hungry. A sport? I have no idea. Whatever it’s called, the results are obviously important!
