My sport...

Crew(krü), n. 1. A sport practiced
in rowing boats where the
participants willfully awake before
dawn and run to practice where
they spend one or two hours
sitting on a hard wood seat
and pull on oars to such a
level as to cause their bodies
to go into oxygen debt, resulting
in the formation of lactic acid
in their blood, which causes
substantial pain and discomfort
in all major muscle groups.
This activity is usually performed
twice a day in the name of fun,
and is conducted under the
demonic supervision of a
person called "Coach",
with the help of his trained
servant named "coxswain".
