	Guardian \| Sporting 'crown jewels' must stay free to air, EU rules
		The decision means that armchair sporting fans can continue to watch the Wimbledon tennis tournament and the FA Cup final free, without fearing they may be snapped up by subscription channels.
		In accepting the list - thought to be the longest in Europe - the EU has dismissed the objections of the Kirch media group in Germany, which is partly owned by Rupert Murdoch, Sky's proprieter.
		The list of protected sporting events, maintained under the 1996 Broadcasting Act, is: Olympic Games, Fifa World Cup finals, FA Cup final, Scottish FA Cup final, Grand National, the Derby, Wimbledon tennis finals, European football championships finals, rugby league Challenge Cup final, rugby World Cup final.

	Sport - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A sport consists of a physical and mentally competitive activity carried out with a recreational purpose for competition, for self-enjoyment, to attain excellence, for the development of a skill, or some combination of these.
		Ice skating and Tai chi, for example, are sports that come close to artistic spectacles in themselves: to watch these activities comes close to the experience of spectating at a ballet.
		The closeness of art and sport in these times was revealed by the nature of the Olympic Games which, as we have seen, were celebrations of both sporting and artistic achievements, poetry, sculpture and architecture.

		The whole point of these sports in the first place was so you could be athletic, while not being lumped in with the rest of bone-headed jock America.

		The rankings are based on the total experience, including the event itself, the participants, the setting and the atmosphere for the fans.
		This is by no means a comprehensive list -- there are just too many games in too many sports for that -- but it does include a full range of national and international competitions well worth camping overnight on the sidewalk for a ticket.
		Former Sports Illustrated writer Steve Rushin once described the NCAA hockey championships -- played the weekend after the NCAA basketball Final Four and the weekend of the Masters -- as "the greatest event you've never seen." There's a lot of competition for that distinction on this list, but it's certainly among the contenders.
