Cricket, and then they just make up the winner.

Rain stops play:
Australia 80000 runs
England 4 runs

England wins on the Farnsworth Louis method

>it’s the responsibility of the home team to ensure the game runs smoothly. Failure to do so results in a penalty

Any bat-and-ball sport. You can't play them decently in the rain, cricket probably the most of all since the pitch would turn to mud. Tennis I assume. Golf. Basketball (i.e. if there was an outdoor match).

tennis is the main example, grand slam tournaments get delayed every year

>Cricket, and then they just make up the winner.
They made up the winner in the most recent world cup. Cricket is quirky like that.

You need to play baseball from a very young age to have any chance at being decent. Meanwhile, you can take any giga at 20 years old who's never played football or basketball and turn them into a professional relatively easily.

Difficulty factor and learning curve should factor in "what is a sport," not how much running and jumping around there is.

Ah, so chess is more of a sport than b*seball, gotcha f am, thanks for the heads-up

Then how come you aren’t a pro athlete?

I should've clarified the difficulty and learning curve in this instance is with regard to physical execution. Developing the array the batting, throwing, and fielding skills takes longer than the developed the very specialized skills you need to excel in American football and skillset in basketball. This is why over here, top draft picks are ready to go pro immediately in the NFL and NBA, while top baseball drafts sometimes never make the league and pretty much always need a couple of years in the minors for development.

they have a machine called that can roll out the moisture and covered stadiums for years already though

>longer than the developed
*longer than developing

have sex
lose weight

its called the duckworth lewis method.

you get the score and you times it by the segments of the game (overs) left to play here is the wikipedia article because it is hard to explain

its basically an educated guess of stats but its better than nothing

>never
can a roastie or a diet beat a comfy game on tv and a pint of beer?

>Then how come you aren’t a pro athlete?
I ain't a giga, bro. You also need to have giga athleticism to excel in baseball. Even those chubby pitchers have giga arms that are a rare athletic trait.

>implying you have to do some meme diet to not be fat
you're on a SPORTS board, doesn't that tell you anything?
not gonna bother with the rest, go have sex

>the duckworth lewis
the guy who did the father ted theme song and my lovely horse has a band called the duckworth lewis method

golf, if a thunderstorm is part of the package as metal clubs and lightning don't mix.

Have sex

It's not canceled, it's just postponed. It resumes when the rain is done.

>baseball isn't a sport
>MJ struggled to play baseball

>he actually thought this post was real
reckon you might be retarded lad

so true. this WILL trigger 99% of posters on Yea Forums but it's an indisputable fact.

Again, Finland will do it in its own way

The grip is rubber so it would insulate the person if their club got struck
