I really think gaming is a sport because it requires strategy, teamwork, and tons of practice. Plus, my life has changed since I started taking it seriously. ๐Ÿ•น๏ธ

The gaming industry wants you to think it's a sport so they can monetize it more. Follow the money, folks. ๐Ÿ’ฐ

Sports should be about physicality, not sitting behind a screen. Call me old-fashioned, but gaming ain't a sport. ๐Ÿ™„

Can't believe people are comparing gaming to physical sports. It's a whole different league.

If running chess championships is considered a sport, then gaming's not too far off.
