Think horseback riding isn’t a sport?
You lift weights, I lift water buckets.
You run 1 mile, I ride 10.
You work with a team, I work with a 1200lb animal who I have to communicate with, an animal that doesn’t understand words.
You have 4 quarters, 2 halves to show what you got?
I have less than 2 minutes to bring it.
When you fall down, you fall a couple of inches. We fall more than 5 feet.
Your sport is one season, ours is all year long, even in the freezing cold.
Who is the athlete now?
