"Not a real sport"

Some people like to accuse various sports of not being a "real sport".

Why does it matter? Spaghetti isn't a real sport and I still enjoy it.

We enjoy lots of things that aren't sport. But some of us who enjoy sport want the word to mean something specific, be less elastic.

Then again, sometimes it's just a stupid put-down.
