    You're right ... it's depressing that the Big Lead thinks wrestling is a sport.

    Wasn't it a lead-in to Wrestlemania?

    Doesn't matter. It's still not a sport.

    Exactly.

    And the last time I checked WWE Raw is on Mondays ... and there's only one per week (they actually split the ratings into two one-hour blocks instead of one two-hour block).

    Wrestlemania was nearly a month ago.

    I don't think he was trying to argue that it was a sport. Rather to rationalize why it generated such high ratings.

    I'm sure if you asked the bros who watch pro wrestling, they think its a sport.

    Sports Entertainment is how the wrestlers and companies describe themselves. So technically.....
