Maybe we can call them hand athletes but that sounds like a masturbation joke.

I mean if professional bowlers and golfers are considered athletes then yeah. Beer-league bowlers and amateur golfers are far more athletic than pro gamers. --- 'It's okay that those gangbangers stole all my personal belongings and cash at gunpoint, cuz they're building a rec center!' - OneTimeBen ...

I haven't caught up on reading this thread, are people still against granting pro gamers athlete visas? Nobody's said they shouldn't get visas for international competitions. What's happened, though, is people are arguing that pro gaming is not only athletic, but moreso than actual sports. Someone claimed that top-level pro gamers are more athletic than top-level athletes in real sports. --- 'It's okay that those gangbangers stole all my personal belongings and cash at gunpoint, cuz they're building a rec center!' - OneTimeBen ...

If curling is a sport, then yes. Curl involves sliding a 40 lb stone down the ice. The curl itself involves vigorous sweeping in order impact the curl as well as the velocity, and final position of the stone. I dont think any gaming outside the ddr type recruits as much muscle as curling. The two are incompatible for comparison. --- Polite fiction is still fictitious even when no one is offended. ...
