Look, if we're calling video games a sport, then I should be able to call my grandma a professional athlete for winning at bingo last Tuesday. That's where this logic leads. A sport requires physical exertion as a core component, not just hand-eye coordination. Chess is more physically demanding than some video games, and nobody's arguing that's a sport. Your opponent's gonna say "but esports players train and compete!" Sure, and so do competitive eaters. That doesn't make hot dog swallowing a sport. The whole point of a sport is that your body is the primary tool, not a controller. If you can play it while lying on a couch with a bag of chips, it's not a sport. And don't get me started on the "Olympics should include video games" crowd. If we open that door, we'd have to include darts, bowling, and maybe even competitive napping. I'm all for respecting the skill involved in gaming, but words mean things. Let's call it what it is: a competitive activity, a game, even an e-sport if you want. But a sport? That's a stretch that breaks the whole category.
