league of legends is now officially recognized by the US government as a sport

ITT: Fat lazy people try to feel special by sitting at a chair all day.

I love video games as much as the next guy, but calling video games a sport is ridiculous. It falls under same stupidity of calling pizza a vegetable because it mostly pizza sauce.

Also Pizza sauce is made from tomatoes, which is a fruit. So if they have the nerve to call pizza a vegetable then it is actually a fruit.

wtf

wtf

Government wasting it's tax dollars on stuff that is irrelevant.

[Dodger]

I feel like there should be specific classifications for competitive activities which can be called sports. Ex. Physical sports, Digital sports, Strategy sports

[Harm94]

How about anything physical will just be called sports and anything involving technology is not a sport. Honestly why does the government need to say that some overrated video game is sport?

Counter Strike and DOTA are more intensive games than LoL

[Cool Boi]

lol so a bunch of nerds tapping keys on the keyboard is equivalent to actual physical activity?

On the bright side, with all the finger excersize, they'll dominate in thumb wrestling

[MrKitKat]

They're tapping things more than you are.

That's right.

woooooooooooaaaaaah

Everyone imagine the olympics in 100 years

i feel like a lot of people in this thread don't agree with lol being a sport just because it's lol

Everyone imagine the olympics in 100 years

A bunch of fat immobile people in electric scooters playing video games in a massive room full of wires, computers, and Mountain Dew and Doritos at every computer.

A bunch of fat immobile people in electric scooters playing video games in a massive room surrounded by Mountain Dew and Doritos.

[Ghille]

So I guess I play a sport now.
