@driftingsilvia But I can still think people are idiots for idolizing (aka calling them a hero) someone that plays a video game for a living.

@driftingsilvia Do you honestly believe this guy that makes money playing Starcraft can be considered a hero? I mean, firefighters I would consider heroes, not some guy that plays video games.

@Srd3285 I do make money doing something I enjoy, which isn't limited to video games. I know a lot of you people posting here can't exactly grasp that.

@blarbz Why especially (I assume that's what you meant to spell) motorsports? I couldn't give a rat's ass about motorsports. Just like I couldn't give a rat's ass about competitive gaming, only that's what this article is about, sadly.

@blarbz I look up to people that have done something with their lives. Playing video games professionally still doesn't constitute as anything.

@srocciso I'd much rather my kids grow up doing something productive while staying in shape. Video games aren't productive and do nothing in the way of excercise.

@blarbz Oh lord, I guess when you're raised on the Internet you'll think things like this.

@FragRaptor @tHeHaUnTeD I play video games online, can I be referred to as a hero too?

@blarbz @tHeHaUnTeD Except this isn't an actual sport.

@FragRaptor So you're comparing esports to real sports? lol
