Sports by Athlete Quiz

I think Martial arts should also be accepted for mixed martial arts.

shouldn't "Free Running" be acceptable for parkour?

Wow, we have really loosened our standards of what a "sport" is. 19/20 though.

agreed i had to look it up i never heard of parkour. nobody i know has either

parkour is cool, but shouldn't be on this list... as for table tennis.

why is montana the rep for Football, Steve Young was better than him, and Manning will end up being the best of all time

isnt there a kevin martin that plays basketball for the rockets?

There is Balloutad however this quiz does not seem to have any repeats and pretty sure Micheal Jordan is a little better known than he is

So... 1% of people didn't know Tiger Woods played golf???? They better be keeping a spotless cave in the middle of nowhere, or I'll be upset.

No one will ever say that Steve Young is a better QB than Joe Montana, thats like saying Scottie Pippen was a better basketball player than Michael Jordan, come on man... There is a Kenyon Martin that plays for the Rockets.

i missed parkour with the rest of you. guessed my way into a lot of the random sports.

i thought speed skating was called 'in line skating'

I'm thinking UFC or Cage Fighting should be accepted... took me ages to think of typing MMA lol... No idea on the speed skater... I admit, I was just naming sports after I got stuck - so missing 1 ain't half bad!! lol

some of those seem pretty fishy to be considered a sport! what makes them an official sport anyway?! o well i still what im doing anyway (when it comes to real sports) 20/28!

Wrong. Table tennis is most definately a sport. It's one of my favorite sports. There is a difference between a sport and a game, but even pool (billiards) is considered a sport. Anything that involves physical competition between at least two people, where a crowd can spectate and root for someone is a sport, even if the activitity isn't very demanding on the body. Table tennis can actually be VERY demanding. Have you ever tried to play, or watch the guys on tv play?

And for that matter, while we're at it, ESPN apparently even considers poker a sport. POKER!!!!!!

'in-line skating' is with rollerblades.

Parkour, I had to look up, still not sure what kind of sport it is. David Belle is listed as a phys ed trainer. Kevin Martin is also a basketball player. And it's Misty May-Treanor. She's been married since 2004, should be long enough by now.

No lacrosse, rugby, fencing, racing, and others...but curling made it? Good quiz but needs to be expanded.

If sachin tendulkar is there for cricket - which I am fairly certain is a sport not played widely in the US - then representatives of rugby (George Gregan, Brad Thorn, Dan Carter, John Eales, Phil Kearns etc) should be considered, and rugby league also (Benji Marshall, Andrew Johns, Wallie Lewis, Peter Sterling, Ryan Girdler). Just an Aussie perspective on the issue. And maybe throw in somebody royal for Polo, hehe

Good quiz but missing some big ones and is parkour really a sport? @theLAYTshow - I love Benji Marshall!

I always forget the 'football' issue. I see David Beckham, type 'football', and it appears next to some guy I've never heard of.

Bill Kazmier. I typed in weight lifting and body building...weight lifting should be accepted

no softball?? parkour, curling, diving, cricket, and no softball? come on

I think 'ice hockey' should be accepted for Wayne Gretzky. To me, hockey is more comparable with field hockey than ice hockey.

You know dancing is a sport...just btw. I know what Parkour is and Dance is waaaaaaayyyyy more a sport than Parkour is.....same for table tennis
