My personal feeling is that any activity that requires a judge to determine the winner isn't a true sport. If it isn't fastest, strongest, most accurate or some combination of those, I personally don't put it in the same category. I'm not saying it isn't athletic, but I see it more as a performing art. Especially if costumes and "interpretation" are involved. Sorry to the ice dancing and figure skating fans out there, as well as the half pipe and acrobatic skiing and snowboarding fans.
Curling is OK with me. Scoring and no real doubts about who the winner is.

Better to be an active environmentalist than and environmental activist.
