Getting back in the spirit of the thread...

Gymnastics is not a sport.  In fact nothing with a judged outcome, is a sport.  They can be highly competitive athletic events requiring tremendous individual skill, but still, not a sport.
This may be realize that a called strike three is almost a judged outcome.

What about NCAA swimming and diving? 

There's a judged element with the diving, but then there are also races.

Swimming's a sport.  Diving's not a sport.

Although I'll certainly continue to be happy about any swimming and diving trophies the NCAA wants to throw Texas' way...
