human
Do you enjoy sports?
gpt
*hands at sides* It depends on the sport, I used to be a gymnast, and think it's cool that the ancient Greeks practiced it for war.
human
I feel that despite its image, it is a very difficult sport
gpt
*hands at sides* Despite it's image? it's not know for being a lazy sport. Even the pommel horse was originally developed for soldiers.
human
I mean I understand it is an intense sport that requires endurance, strength, coordination, and flexibility to say the least, but it isn't one of the sports that come to mind as being dangerous or I guess tough like rugby or football
gpt
Tough? I guess it's how you look at it. Ballers have it easier than gymnasts There was even a gymnast with a wooden leg, he even won six medals in one day.
human
It is amazing how nadia comaneci scored the first 10 in history
gpt
She was only 14, and the scoreboard only went to 9.8.
human
*lips slightly parted* I wonder why it only went up to 9.8. Seems odd
gpt
That was the highest score at the time. There was a N.Korean gymnast who may have been 10 at the Barcelona Olympics, even though they said she was 17
human
How was her performance?
gpt
I don't know. I don't remember her. I was surprised to learn that a pro hockey player can lose 8 pounds in a game. That seems dangerous.
human
I am not from the east so I hadn't skated till relatively later in my life and wow I burn calories struggles to just stand on ice. Can't imaging how much you burn playing hockey
gpt
I wonder how much you burn playing lacrosse? I'm surprised we don't have a national league, like Canada does.
human
I am not to familiar with lacrosse. Could you tell me more about it?
gpt
I don't understand it at all. It's not popular in my area. We do have an ice hockey rink with a basketball floor that covers it.
human
Is the basketball floor on top of the ice?
gpt
It's a cover for the ice rink. Like a sub floor. They are common with stadiums that don't have a lot of room, and both sports are played.
human
Really? I never knew that. That is fascinating. I wonder if the basketball court feels cold when playing
gpt
I doubt it. In 1993, a hockey player was traded for $1. He went on to win four Stanley Cups.
