lol you keep trying to prove to me that they're the same and you'll never convince me, i think it's stupid and not worth watching, i honestly feel similarly about most real sports also literally anyone who doesn't already have a life can play videogames professionally bro. you're nuts for even trying to make the comparison I guess poker is a sport too? lmfao, Gtfoh

  • Also golf and bowling don't require very much physical exertion either yet they're also sports, same thing goes for billiards.

  • Yet they're called sports by the people who are paid by the institutions that built up the sports you choose to call sports

    sport- an activity involving [u][i][b]physical[/b][/i][/u] exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment. there it is fam, the modern definition of a sport videogames? not a sport poker? not a sport goodbye lol p.s not suprising that some twitch donkey thinks his activity is a sport and wants to fight for its acceptance as a sport. not a sport bro, will never be a sport, and it will never be respected by the wider population as a sport. your activity will always be derided as a children's diversion

  • I don't think it's a sport or that they deserve to be paid but at the end of the day they're all paid to entertain SOMEONE and that's why they're paid.

  • Poker has a competitive scene analogous to sports as well, yes. No one is saying sports and esports are exactly the same. You said they were incomparable when they actually share a number of distinct parallels. Look, I don't care about changing your mind. Believe what your feelies tell you.
