Recently I posted an article to this newsgroup stating my opinion about the
validity of bowling and golf as a sport as well as tennis, and said that
I wondered what opinions others held. Well, I got an interesting answer
today -- not from the net, but in a quote from John MacEnroe in today's
newspaper:
"Tennis is a real sport, like baseball, football, and besketball. Golf
is not a sport -- it's an artistic exercise like ballet. You can be
a fat slob and still play golf."
Is he implying that you can be a fat slob and still dance ballet, too?
(I don't think I want to hear what he has to say about bowling.)

(Can anyone identify the author of that quote?)
