1. In his article. Andriesen doesn't really take a stance on the definition of a sport, he simply reports on the many ways which he has heard it defined. He Mostly focuses on Rodney Fort's criteria in defining a sport. The reasons established by Mr. Fort is constantly contradicted by well known sports which don't meet the given criteria. Overall the closing of Andriesen's article is where we learn that his opinion is that as long as people are having fun doing something, it is a sport.
2. Personally I don't really see a need in declaring a sport official. I think the only thing that should be required for a sport is something that takes physical skill, takes practice and is competitive in nature.
