Wouldn't your definition here make Chess a sport?
The chess board is a field of play with an opponent physically impeding your progress

You're really reaching with that definition of "physically". It's not that high of a bar. Try using a step ladder.Wouldn't your definition here make Chess a sport?

There's nothing wrong with dating college-aged women as a middle-aged man, unless you ask Mrs. Finger.

This is how rumors get started. Here's the story:
Not long ago we were back at her alma mater for the big team reunion thing. I'm chilling with some of the other husbands at pre-meet reception and I'm having a great conversation with this guy that is in the same line of work. I ask him which one is his wife and he tells me that he's here as a guest of one of the current gymnast. I'm thinking he's her dad. Nope.
When Mrs. Finger swings back by I introduce them and tell her that he was here with one of the women she was just talking to. She's flashing that magnetic amazing smile of hers, but after all these years I know the eyes.
So, when we're alone walking over to the venue, I know what's coming. She tells me she thinks it is odd and creepy that a guy that age is with a college-aged girl. I remind her that I'm a bit older than her and met her when she was still in college. She concedes it, but it wasn't like I was 20 plus years older.
It was at this point, I should have taken the knee. Instead, I went for style points by waxing philosophical on the nature of male/female relationships. Perhaps the fact that I am, in fact, a middle-aged man who at that moment was in an area literally swarming with athletic, flexible, college-aged girls contributed to ire and acrimony of the following moments. Generally as a married man I'm prohibited from dating in general. It was pressed upon me specifically that dating a college-aged girl would be frowned upon. Thirties me would have doubled down and asked, "what if you died?" Forties me looked into those blazing eyes and and thought of how truly incredible the "show him I'm the best" sex was going to be if I played my cards right.

All I'll say is this: there are very good reasons she loved the nickname @AlexDaGator came up with for me. She's repeatedly threatened to have it put on a t-shirt.
"The Apparatus"
I've learned it benefits to never give a perfect 10, but only the Russians would have given it a 9.98. And if competitive cheer is a sport (with a due respect to our resident rules expert Patsy) the post-meet session should probably qualify as one as well.
See, it can stay in the sports forum. I brought it back on topic.

Dear readers, do understand that this man is an expert at satisfying his own wife. Please don't use this dangerous method with yours without some considerable thought. It can easily be confused with the method many of you dad-bodded oafs pursue:
"The key to good sex is to always leave them wanting more."
which eventually leads to...
"I'm leaving you"

You're over the target, but I'm not anti-generosity. I've often thought of penning a sequel to a popular Indian book. My title would be Karma Sutra: What Goes Around Comes Around. But as very young man, I was baffled at why the most attractive women always seemed to go for a series of total douchebags. This is when I discovered the attraction of hypergamy to women. The douchebags acted like they did not care (because they didn't) and this crazily fired off signals in her brain that he was high status, and therefore, attractive.
I owe a great debt in this regard to a cheerleader. See, once again, I've steered us back.
The key to making it last is to not actually be a douchebag, but also not become a worshiper in the cult of WaW (Women are Wonderful).
