Recognition for Chess in Scotland
#29
Mike,
I must strongly disagree with your comment that my statement is pointless, just as I would disagree with your comment that there is no physical involvement in chess. That is a rediculous statement. Are you saying that a chess player is as fresh in the fifth hour of a match as they are in the first? There is no way that they are.
There is a certain degree of physicality involved in chess and even within the narrow definition of what is a sport in this country, that to me classifies chess as a sport. The point you make about the the thinking mind's involvement is irrelevant because to play a sport and to play it well you need your mind focused 100% whatever the sport.
