To tell the difference between true sports and mere games, it's a simple matter of listening for the word "play" when we talk about them. For example, while I love chess, I PLAY chess and it is therefore a game and not a sport. I also love rock climbing (even more than chess), but wouldn't say that I PLAY rock climbing, and it is therefore a sport. This argument is particularly useful when needling my dad about PLAYING golf...No, dad, it's not a sport, just a game.
