2142604, I think dexterity and coordination always get short shrift Posted by Cocobrotha2, Wed Mar-06-13 04:05 PM
in this argument.
But it's what separates a good jumpshooter from a great one in basketball... or distinguishes an accurate passer from an average one in the NFL.
Just because bowling, darts, golf, and car racing depend almost SOLELY on dexterity and coordination doesn't disqualify them as sports. There are other sports that are solely about speed or strength.
But a motherfucker that can hit a tiny target 20-30 feet away with precision and accuracy is just as much an athlete as Usain Bolt or Kendrick Perkins.
