i just wanted to say that for culminating my older sister found out marching band could indeed be considered a sport, but for the most part isn't because they refuse to subject themselves to sports leagues that takes all the money and crap like that.
and has anyone been to a marching band competition? they are awesome, and fun, and it is hard competition. like C.D. Hilton, whew. and toni, did you see Yorktown? i think it was them. and did you see the guys who's show was the romans? that was cool. what is riverbend's show this year? Chancellor's doing 'flying' or some thing like that, and it doesn't sound that great, but it might turn out okay. we have like 40 freshman and like 5 seniors in the band. it's insane.

Our show is some kind of jazz thing. From what I've heard of it, its not that great. All of the people in our drumline are freakin out tho, because they tell me that their part kicks ass, so i dunno. it should be interesting. Like marching band ever isnt.
Marching band is an activity...calling marching band a sport is like calling latin club a sport we walk around in latin club and its not a sport, so get over it
Marching is a lot different than regular walking. Plus with an instrument and playing (which takes LOTS of air). its hard hard work.
Could you consider a cigarette an instrument? Afterall smokers do walk with cigarettes. And it does require a lot of breathe (for them, anyway). So I guess smoking is a sport too huh?
guys marching band is not a sport. period. no more argument. Unless, of course, you have a good point to argue, at which point i will say you are wrong without providing any proof. Therefore, Marching band, chess, poker, smoking, and trying on shoes are not sports.
its not a sport! u could say going to the mall is a sport because u use way more energy there than u do at marching band, i play and instrument and i can walk, so i can say these things
I dont care whether or not u non marching band people think its a sport, but u guys think it is so easy. u have no idea how much work goes into learning the music, learning how to march,learning the show, and being able to be where ur supposed to be at the right time. and marching and walking are not the same things, in marching band you have to "dip it low" and roll ur feet which u do not have to do while walking.
I never said it was easy. I believe you guys when you say it is hard. It is Jake that calls it easy. However, it being hard does not make it a sport.
nor did i say it was easy, but it is most definitely not a sport and requires much less physical activity, i mean i play soccer and play a full 70 mins a game. That is about 5 miles of running and marching band is not that physical
