The media is becoming more and more irrelevant as technology evolves. I used to watch TV a lot now all I have to do is open up KZfaq or Netflix.

That's why no one watches tv. Tv and news channels are becoming irrelevant because they can't keep up with the times. We are developing society and technology at an astonishing rate, and they can't keep up.

Enoch Annor there are hundreds or thousands of profession and people never like the ones they have no idea with or sucks hard on

Enoch Annor agree , but you dont need approval of what you like, just enjoy it, people dont get it? fine , esports scene at this moment is supporting itself without needing to impress or convince skeptics. I have learnt, that changing people minds with words and arguments regarding an established and known subject(like sports, religion or politics) is pointless.

People don't hate it because they don't understand it. People gate it because these fat lazy fucks are going around calling themselves athletes from sitting on their ass playing video games all they. Nobody would care if E-sports was made separate from actual sports

I'd say anything that is able to sustain itself economically and is worthy of competition is a Sport. be it physical like UFC, be it intelectual like Chess, or virtual like Video games if it has a fan base thats passionate and big enought to make some of the "athletes" make a living out of it I'd call it a sport. Hell, the only reason we are not banging rocks and sticks together still is competition, humans are always competitive, like it or not. if we're not doing something for fun or for love, we're doing it to get better, to stand out, to be recognized. It's kind of silly to see people like these on TV ignore the potential of Video game Competitions, the data is there, its real, its growing exponentially every year, and yet they cease their chance to get onboard with it

Games that are played vary vary well, Anyone can "play" them. If any of these people joined a tourny they would be rekted so badly giving them no real training or telling them the rules. They would be rekted in basket ball if you gave them no real training or understanding of the rules. The only difference is Video games are new, and anything new is bad and should be dismissed. That counts new, life saving medicine.

Boom Knight esports and video games are not exactly new. It's just that there are sooooo many people getting into it now with these massive sponsorships and tournament prizes.

The oldest esport at maximum I would give it 25 years. Now something like baseball has been around before tvs. Meaning old farts like these grew up with normal sports. They see esports that they never grew up with, remember around the time they grew up, video games where an geek thing and you would never be seen as cool for liking such things. Is moving onto esports because welcome to bigoted old people owning the news. This is why esports is getting shit when they ignore the superbowl and be belittling it as a real sport.

An activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment. That's the definition of sport you idiot. Notice the key words "Physical exertion". Unless moving your fingers on a keyboard playing league of legends counts as physical exertion then I guess E-sports aren't really sports

The first season of star trek aired in 1969, It's not about age, It's about ignorance and how stubborn people can be with disrespecting other peoples interests and opinions.

They don't want an explanation; they are pissed that something they think is just a negative hobby for children and irresponsible adults can make them a lot of money. They feel like making money from esports is the equivalent of paying your receptionist millions of dollars because literally anyone can be a receptionist. While it couldn't be farther from the truth it takes a lot of practice and dedication plus talent to be good at esports. I feel like receptionist is a good comparison to esports in this sense because you can find plenty of ok/good receptionists and esports players but there are few that are exceptional.

I hate it when they call someone onto the show, and then just ignore everything they say.

What you're doing is more like watching people play FIFA Waching sports is just a more direct thing. You're closer to the actual thing.
