Sports redirects here. For other senses of that word, see sports (disambiguation).

A sport consists of a physical and mentally competitive activity carried out with a recreational purpose for competition, for self-enjoyment, to attain excellence, for the development of a skill, or some combination of these. A sport has physical activity, side by side competition, self-motivation and a scoring system. The difference of purpose is what characterises sport, combined with the notion of individual (or team) skill or prowess.

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Tue, 15 Dec 2009 00:00:00 -0500
The Arizona Cardinals threw away a perfectly good chance to clinch a second straight National Football Conference West crown.

CARDINALS 24, GIANTS 17; Giants Lose the Ball Too Much to Win Their Comeback Bid
By JOE LAPOINTE Mon, 26 Oct 2009 00:00:00 -0400
In a match between Super Bowl finalists from the previous two seasons, neither the Giants nor the Arizona Cardinals played at a championship level Sunday night. But they sure made it close and interesting, with the Cardinals winning, 24-17, at Giants Stadium. Two Giants drives that could have tied the score died in the final five minutes.
