I don't suppose you consider Danger Wank to be a sport?

Chess is cool, but I like video gaming too.

I don't play many, but I love watching tennis. And I am quite decent at ping pong :p
1. Tennis(by far)
2. Boxing
3. Table tennis
Chess would've been up there but I've never considered it a sport, play it on the net a couple of times a week. It's not as funny to play on a computer as in real life. Almoust all games I play are blixt games and you only have like 5 minutes. I don't learn very much from them.
I used to play table tennis in a club for one year, before that I played on my free time so I was pretty good at it but I haven't played it for years so unfortunately, I would probably suck. Now I'm playing tennis with my dad once a week and it's the best indivudual sport by far. It requires really much technique althought it seems easy when the pros do it on TV. I've played it for two years but I won't get better at it since unfortunately I don't take it to seriously.

I think the next time my friend comes up to see me we'll beat Halo: Combat Evolved. Again.

Chess,golf,video games,bowling and competive eating are NOT sports.
Please explain athletics. (Do you mean track and field?)
I'd say track and field. I guess I mean I've never fenced or anything like that. Although you can play basketball by yourself by shooting around. I guess that's why tennis is up there. I mean you can play tennis against a wall. So from the list either tennis or other. Oh, and bocce (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bocce) is awesome. But bocce resembles bowling so it's not really a sport.

Chess,golf,video games...are NOT sports.
They are, however, activities that constitute governed (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulation_of_sport) competition designed to pit the physical and mental capabilities of some participant against another. Thus, while they may not be adequate to one's particular tastes, to declare them as "not sport" is simply ridiculous.

I like riding my bike, I like watching boxing, UFC, and womens volleyball. Starting arguments is kind of a sport too, isn't it? Cause I'm pretty good at that as well.
What the heck kind of poll is this???? Chess and video games as sports, and wrestling isn't even included???

Surely, competetive eating is far more exciting, no? :p

While I absolutely love some of the games in the poll, I don't really consider them sports.
My favorite? I've recently been getting into SCA heavy combat (which is sometimes an individual sport. Depends on what you're doing. :)), which I'd say counts.

out of that list, boxing. but in actual fact, kayaking or surfing.
