Claims to be an adjective, but probably isn't. DCDuring TALK 16:26, 30 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

Though, there is no corresponding noun definition. We need that first. But, IMO it is citable as a noun. Mglovesfun (talk) 16:51, 30 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
In general our definitions are ok but it could be clearer. For example to what extent is the 'sport' different from the 'basketball' definition? Mglovesfun (talk) 17:54, 30 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
I've cited the noun sense. They are under the correct definition as the entry stands, but I think we might need an entirely new definition to be more accurate. Mglovesfun (talk) 18:13, 30 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
