Haven't watched much other than the USA v. Ghana and France v. Honduras games but they've both been pretty entertaining.

So, England are out again!!!!!!!!!!

I don't know why we bother. Oh well, there's always Spain. Oh wait, they are out as well.

Fuck it. Come on 'murica!!!

Great job today France, that was some glorious soccer playing right there.

I second this question.

I don't see it as a sport in the traditional sense, but I do see the competitive play of it that might make it a sport to you.


Anywho, let's rank sports, I'm day drunk, and watching the World Cup so why not ya know?

1. Hockey
2. Football
3. Fútbol
4. Basketball
5. Baseball

1. Table Tennis
2. Football (i.e. Soccer)
3. Curling
4. Golf
5. Squash

That's the best I can think of, in order of interest (not necessarily how often I watch or play them).

1. Starcraft
2. Hearthstone
3. CS : GO
4. Baseball
5. Speedruns

I'd count the inevitable all-nighters, mental training, and pressing 9000 keys in 1/10 of a millisecond (may be slightly exaggerated unless its Starcraft) as physical exertion. You're physically exerting yourself to do something. You also need a lot of skill to play them (can confirm, suck at Starcraft, CS : GO, League, DOTA, etc.) and these games have communities that form teams that compete against each other, for the entertainment of others.

It doesn't say how one is exerted.

so i guess this makes stenographers athletes of the courtroom then as they physically exert themselves every day in court
but it's more like golf because it's just them beating their own scores

If they're competing against other stenographers then sure.
