Sports section

I know this idea was floated a while ago and the mods said they'd consider it, but I'd like to reiterate my support for having a sports section. There seem to be a fair amount of discussion about exercise and sports that pop up anyway, might as where have a coherent place to put it.

I would be all for it, but do you think there is enough discussion to warrant it? I guess I don't feel like I see enough topics that would fit into a sports category to make it worth it.

Could there be a trial to see if it gets much activity?

Maybe, I think if there was a category to place it it would encourage more discussion. Some of us would much rather talk about sports than gaming.

Why? 0_o

I kid Tongue

To be honest I see it getting as much attention as gaming does. If not more if it got combined with fitness/exercise. I know a couple of people had threads talking about them getting fit. Seems like that fits with sport pretty well.

Perhaps, nothing to oppose here. One more forum to moderate won't make much difference now. As to creating it, its up to the guys in red Big Grin
