can western chess classify as sport?
-
Just watch news at ten. It said that this year sea game chess is in for the very first time.
I find this is ridiculous as playing chess doesn't help a person to exercise. If chess can be a entry for this sea game competition, I wonder what is next? Manjong? Arcade fighting game?
