The debate over whether or not esports are sports is not only one that’ll rage on for the foreseeable future, it’s also one that’s entirely pointless – because people will continue to play sport, and people will continue to play video games competitively no matter their designation. Most within traditional sporting doctrines don’t want to see esports given the same status as sport, and that’s purely because it would mean a little funding funnelled away from them, and into this new-fangled computer gaming nonsense.
