[quote]This guy was arguing with me yesterday saying Its just like real life football......XD WHAT!!![/quote]
I asked a forum friend the same thing, now I'm asking you guys. I was taking too this hardcore Overwatch guy at work yesterday and he almost broke down crying (not really, he did get pissed tho lol) because I said football, basketball, ect are real sports and eSports aren't.....because they aren't. Are eSports a job....idk.
Edit: How are they real sports if you say yes? Please explain. I can name 70 real athletes, but not one esport gamer. But thats just me. [spoiler]I don't follows sports, not a hardcore sports fan but I dabble[/spoiler]
Edit: video, He makes perfect sense
Edit: no/XD for the win
Edit: Alright Esport fans, dont get triggered, If you think it is and enjoy it who care what me or anyone else thinks. I was just trying too see where everyone's head was, no big deal. Those guys get paid too do that stuff and I didn't know that. Watch, Destiny 2's pvp will become an esport.

There are aspects that make it sorta sporty, but none of that has to do with stuff like athleticism though. It's just a crafty term they coined. With that being said, they tried to make it have more sports types of aspects. Teams competing Sports jerseys for their teams Attempting to have good sportsmanship and conduct Coaches for the teams. Obviously it isn't a sport. Which is why they call it an Esport. If you gather all those teams into a thumbwar contest tho, well then you'd have a real sport.
