No, esports are not sports.
If sports channel can show golf,nascar,bowling,chess,darts competition and
etc why can’t competetive video games be shown there as an eSports? People
need to realize that the world is changing to more towards technology and
gaming is one of them.Gaming industry is growing rapidly and it makes
money,maybe they dont like it as an eSports because they thought playing
video games is for teenager who’s too lazy to do ‘real’ sports.Correct me
if I’m wrong just my opinion on this. :)
Is motor sport physical sport ? Mostly not. SO what the fuck is problem
with Esport ? That someone can get rich by just pressing few buttons and
getting his shit straight is amazing imo.
fuck the haters,grate video guys

Esports lol more like E-competition.
It’s not a real sport.
it isn’t a sport.
nerds wanting esports to be considered sports are like trannies wanting to
be considered women.
Hm.. Well.. Football (or soccer for ‘muricans) is 50% Game and 50% acting..
That is considered a sport and not acting. Why wouldnt esports be a real
thing when it already is?
I don’t know, is competitive eating a sport? Is the dog show a sport? Is
poker a sport? Once you answer those questions, that answer is the same for
e-sports.
Gamit isn’t a sport. People who are professional in a sport shed blood,
sweat and tears to go to professional
It’s a Sport, they’re just not Athletes.
It’s not a sport… lol espn broadcasts Spelling Bees, that doesn’t make it
a sport… it’s just a competition
Sitting on your ass for 10 hours a day will never and shouldn’t ever be a
sport
Sport – An activity involving “PHYSICAL” exertion
No, esport is electronic sport, and Sport is athletic physical sport
(fingers don’t count) still fun to watch tough
Last time I checked (as an actual person who plays rugby) video games
didn’t involve training and doing laps that never seemed to end at 6am in
the shitty cold pissing rain then going on to play a match the next day. If
they decide to call playing COD A sport, fine whatever but just remember
kids….Actual people push themselves for ACTUAL sport, regardless of what
it is.
Hell No! As much as I respect the FGC and gaming in general I absolutely
can not picture Justin Wong running an impressive 40 yard dash.
Athleticism is one of my main criteria of sports (nascar is not a fuggin
sport either) and E-sports doesn’t fit into that
To be labelled as a sport the activity must be physically exerting ,and
video games are not
Esports aren’t real sports. This is coming from someone who watches esports
and supports it. It’s a videogame, its competitive I get that but it’s not
a real sport
Its not a sport, its a competition. For anything to have a chance to
qualify as a sport, it has to be physically demanding. Gaming is not, which
is why so many people do it. I’m not dissing gaming (as I am an avid
gamer), but its not sport. It’s competition. Golf (as lame as it can be) is
physically demanding, NASCAR is definitely physically demanding, even
competitive fishing is physically demanding. Gaming is like chess. They are
competitions, and more mentally demanding than physically.
To answer your video title question, no.
just a bunch of ignorant people is arguing lol Its so stupid considering
how the world is going through a health craze and all about health
lifestyle but don’t understand the anatomy of the body. You people cry it
requires physical excursions of the body which it does and one of the major
parts of the body the BRAIN its already been recorded with chess players
which is why its probably on espn. Not to mention the required training in
muscle YES MUSCLE and JOINT training, Twitch reflexes which is present in
ufc and may other sports you dufus only train well known big muscle like
your biceps and traps etc How about people educating themselves in actually
going into university in medical studies of the body before screaming the
definition of sports and what physical excursion is until you have the
knowledge of be specialized in all parts of the body you can go fuck
yourselves. Last thing i need is sports fanatics that dropped out of
highschool are crazy over a corporatised sports thats fixed by a bunch of
board members to grab money from the lesser common folk who are to stupid
to realized whats happening. Sorry you people are from the old age where
grad 9 bio used to be university bio you people are outdated and have no
valid reason to judge and are from a by gone era and to you uneducated
teens and uni students try changing to a medical professionals or taking
science classes maybe perferably in kine, or biomechanics? before judging
something that is out of your league other then that you play alot of games
that excuse is saying your 40 year old mom is a gamer because she plays
candy crush alot on her phone. Oh also there’s a thing called sub
categories and reorganizing what sports are just as the same as how musics
how different or a wonder precised organization of the animal kingdom down
to the dot, which EVERYONE should have learned about; kingdom, phylm,
genus, order, species does that ring a bell? There’s a reason why an ant is
still considered an animal when comparing it something like an dog yet are
obviously different and yet the same.
Look at all these butthurt kids who want video games to be a sport so they
can be considered athletes. As someone who has played varsity baseball and
basketball as well as competitive halo and cod, no video games are not a
sport. Even competitive players such as nadeshot don’t think that it’s a
sport
I suppose you can die from trying to clutch in counter strike and your
heart is going 900bpm XD
