    Actually, it's not. We use proper English on this site (E.g. News Centre instead of 'News Center')

    That said, sport = noun, sports = adjective (e.g. sports bar, sports car, sports network, sportsman, etc), both in proper and misspelled English So Sports Forum is the correct term.

      Adjective, schmadjective!

      The name of the forum is dependent upon the topic being talked about within. In the History Forum it's history, in the Sport Forum, it's sport. I don't see any reason to complicate matters beyond that.



      Or you could just drop the whole thing and merge the sport threads back into the OT, since it seems to be garnering so much controversy.

        Alas I have to agree with LordShiva. In the context of this (albeit somewhat pointless) debate it would be "sport forum"

        I think we should have also have a grammar nazi forum.

          You'd be agreeing with Winston there; I don't care whether it's "Sport" or "Sports," I just want the "Forum" nomenclature made consistent

            Now this is what I see on the Miscellaneous forum listing:

            Off-Topic
            Sub-forums: History Forum, Sports Forum

            But it's still listen as "History Forum" and "Sports" in the Off-Topic forum.

              Aye, and having to argue that point is even more ridiculous than the debate I'm having!

                I don't know why, but I just hate the word "fora". Ugh. Just typing it makes me cringe.

                Nothing personal. Just throwing it out there. Not that anybody cares
