I dunno how or why this word ended up in sports, but it needs to get axed. It's the stupidest sounding phrase I've ever heard used to express something in sports. "Vince Young makes a nifty move", "Lebron James just had a nifty move to the basket", etc.

uh oh now we're getting into that discussion of sports vs games again...

football = sport
baseball = sport
basketball = sport
hockey = sport (even though it sucks)
golf = game
poker = game
spelling bee = game
auto racing of any kinda = eh not really a game.. not a sport either /shrug

anyhow, if it's a popular game/sport/driving competition, it will be reported on, no matter how much it may not be an actual sport.

i mean really... would you rather see auto racing or WNBA?
