That's like saying chess is a sport because there are chess tourneys. It is not a sport by any stretch of the imagination.

Sports is all about pushing your body to the limit, not your mind, or thumbs for that matter. Not to say that it wouldn't be cool if video games were a sprt, because then that would label a lot of us as extremely athletic, if you guys don't polay another sport already.

I agree, there is no way videogames are a sport, i mean i love them and everything... but pressing buttons all day is not the same as a real sport
