How do you figure that it's more of a sport than golf? There's alot of skill, technique, and concentraition required for golf. In NASCAR, you just drive around in circles. Success in NASCAR has alot to do with the car and the pit crew.

Yeah, but atleast in Nascar you get to drive your own vehicle around unlike golf where you sit back like a lazy shit and have your caddy drive you around in those little carts.

Carts aren't allowed on the PGA tour. The Caddie carries your bags and advises you on club and shot selections.

More of a sport than boxing? Uh..no :rofl. But it is a sport. However F1 is the true racing sport. I watched some Nascar on TSN once..I guess there is some technique involved by the way the commentators were talking, but I just wasn't seeing it. Even the crashes in F1 are better so I don't see the whole reason behind Nascar's popularity other than you can see the cars the whole time from your seat..

Well nice to here that atleast the golfers are being forced to get some exercise in.:yep

Tiger is absolutely ripped the guy keeps in such great shape it's a great sport...There are the John Daley's of the world but for the most part Pro golfers have to keep in good shape
