Badminton was the next best thing to archery for me back in high school phys ed... unlike tennis, I could smack that damn birdie as hard as I felt like and not cause it to bounce out of the court or hit anybody. I have fond memories of competing witht he few other phys-ed haters in my class to see who could get the most birdies stuck in the light fixtures or on top of the a/c units in the gym...
In all seriousness, my definition of what constitutes a 'sport' is rather broad. I'd lump riflery, archery, skydiving, scuba, and most other physical, outdoor, or competitive recreational activities in with 'sports.' Badminton might not be as likely to result in personal injury as football or... well, football, but a sport it is.

First time saw it years ago, I was like those kids just aren't inshape to actually play anything else, its not really hard, and takes mininal strength/movement, but its quite amusing at times

You didn't see them play competitively. 
A couple years back, for shits and giggles, a couple buds and I decide to 'try-out' for the high-school badminton team.
So you're looking at five white guys, who are all around 5'9 -6'1, we all played rugby, and two others wrestled.
We head into the gym, and find that we are the only white dudes in there. The rest are all Asian, and they are all shorter, and thinner than us.
Of course, all five of us thought this is going to be f*cking easy. We weren't all that fast, but we were all about muscle, and arm power, so we all agreed that we'd have this try-out wrapped up in half an hour, and we'd be Canadian champions in about two-weeks, give or take.
We got our asses deep-fried, basted, herbed, and handed to us within five minutes. I've never seen such speed in my life. They were so clever, that they just used our power shots against us, and made us run all over the place diving for the birdie.
After that day, I got a new respect for the game.
I decided that I'd be better served in Volleyball. Watching it that is. Especially Women's Volleyball on ESPN.

If it involves a projectile and you can make it extreme, I say yes.
And there are ways to make badminton extreme...

I believe hunting and golf, played simultaneously, is going to be the next "big thing" . It's a match made in Heaven baby!

sadukura09 wtf.... why are you asking who I am? You have 995 posts on this forum, I have 3, obviously I have no clue who you are, since you spend all your time on these forums but hey, whatever noob, keep posting instead of playing, I imagine you're better at posting. Even though it seems as though you just flame. I was just stating my opinion. Now like I said, go die plx.
