Well...he doesn't participate in a sport. According to your old friend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kountzer Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 American is obsessed with the legendary success of Michael Jordan. Now superstars from every sport are measured against Jordan. Even swimmers & track stars. Amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely he is an athlete and so are swimmers, track stars, etc. But I think track is more of a competition than a sport. Just how I see it and everyone will have a different opinion on this. However NASCAR drivers are neither athletes nor is it a sport. Just because they have endurance does not make them an athlete. Driving in a circle doesn't take much except a set of nads.

winwin Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 So as for the topic, Jordan and Phelps are both athletes. Jordan played a sport, Phelps participates in a competition. I give the edge to Jordan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
