Chess a sport? Darts and snooker possibly, what about dominoes, ludo, monopoly? Oh, and don't forget snakes and ladders! 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />

I used to 'love' whacking you with a stick of rhubarb or a rolled up newspaper 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />

Remember your Javalot ? was that a 'sport' ?

Decided to add chess because some people do consider it a sporting event. Then again some people also rate golf, snooker, darts, bowling and petanque as sports. I don't. Just shoot me. 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':P' />
