Summary: li. Sport. Why chess counts as a sport.
A/N: Over halfway done! Also, I will be continuing the previous chapter into a longer story.
Sport
"Chess is not a sport, Spock!"
"On the contrary, I believe it demonstrates both qualifiers of what has deemed a 'true sport'."
"Oh yeah?"
"Yes. It demands both a level of physical fitness and strategy."
"My grandmother could play chess, and she can't even walk up a flight of stairs."
"I was under the impression both your mother and father's parents died before you were born."
"That's not the point!"
"But if you do not have a grandmother, then your argument is invalid."
"It's the spirit of the thing, Spock. It means any old lady could play chess."
"Only if they have the physical capacity to remain seated for extended periods of time."
"Seriously?"
"Without the ability to remain focused in a stationary position, it is impossible to play a game of chess to it's fullest."
"Fine. You win, Spock. Chess is a sport...Check-mate."
