Athletic Cubers

Yes, you are probably talking to mostly kids. I'd guess that most of the people here are around the 13 area, me included.

Brilliant so it's like talking to a brick wall

You are also acting child like, taking way too much offense for people merely being skeptical of the calorie burn of ping-pong, and then accusing people younger than you of being a brick wall. Kind of hypocritical I'd say. You being 8 years older doesn't magically make us comparatively stupid.

Im only stating the facts. Not here to poke holes or insult anyone. And i couldnt give a toss about calorie burning. Im just backing it being a sport when people say otherwise.

No one here is trying to insult anyone, except for maybe you as you called a good portion of the users here brick walls. Now we should stop before it escalates more.

@Etotheipi is right on this one, it was not needed. Don't talk too much with anyone who acts stubborn

My brick wall comment was based on the fact you can never win against kids. They always want the last comment to "win" i only ever wanted to talk to other players and learn from cubers. Never wanted any issues. It's all gotten out of hand for no reason because "their sport is superior"

 

[Nmile7300]

Can we stop arguing over something completely dumb?

Table Tennis/Ping Pong meets the basic definition of a sport. End of story. There is no reason to carry on any longer.

 

[Owen Morrison]

Guys stop arguing over the calories burnt in Table Tennis, it doesn't really matter and everyone has their own opinion on which sports are fun and which sports are not.

 

[2018AMSB02]

I don't know how other to prove that you're wrong than to tell you to check again.

I know, I'm only taking about it because of PingPongCuber.


I guess I just have a different opinion. Is it that hard except.

That’s fine, but when you go on forums telling people that their sport is lazy that’s crossing the line. When you did that you provoked the whole confrontation

 

[Sub1Hour]

Grade A+ entertainment, would watch this argument again. If you want my opinion, I think that wrapping the definition of sports around everything is bad, instead, we should have sport categories with well-defined characteristics that are clear and concise. The only major qualification for something being a sport, in my opinion, is you must be competing against someone else in a match or game or whatever for it to be a sport.

You gotta love older people ruthlessly insulted young ones.

Ok. We have different opinions. Can you just let it go?

I don't even play baseball, just used it because PingPongCuber used it.

Last time I checked, brick walls don't win arguments.

Also, can we just take a second to note how you're drawing this argument out so you can be right by talking about how we always draw arguments out so we can win. This I the dictionary definition of irony. (And it's also being a hypocrite).

I have opinions. Is that okay?

You’re saying the same thing over and over.

You are allowed to have opinions obviously, but when you use them to insult other people by saying “It takes the sport out of sport” and “a sport should be athletic” after several people say they play table tennis, you are just being rude. It’s like if I said that skewb was a dumb event that doesn’t require skill (as an example, I don’t think that) on a thread about people’s favorite events after some people said they like skewb. Please don’t reply with “Am I allowed to have opinions” yet again.

This feels like the OH debate. Lets all take a chill pill and talk about something else thats good about sports, like how the PLL (not the alg set I'm talking about the premiere lacrosse league) is gonna get a season that will be broadcasted in the Olympic Game's timeslot so more attention is brought to lacrosse!

Ahh the age old _______ Isn’t a real sport argument...who wants popcorn?!?!

I would rather go practice some putts.

 

[ProStar]

I got a way to solve an argument. We should add a new rule to ping pong: while the ball is on the other team's side you have to do jumping jacks

Smart man! The sound of chains sure is a lot more satisfying...hardest part of the game IMO.

 

[brododragon]

I think @alexiscubing didn't like what I had to say. Whatever, I've got enough popcorn to watch a whole angrylution.

Think that table tennis at the recreational level could be considered more of an activity than a sport. That being said, table tennis at the pro level is definitely a sport. Watching a pro match can show you how much work each of the competitors are putting in.
