Oh good. The States has never had issues removing crazy power mad leaders in the middle east through force before. This will be fun to learn this lesson for the first time. Read more

Its the exact same thing with football, baseball, basketball, soccer, and so on and so forth. All of them are still just games. Read more

Attitude is everything. I remember I once saw my Quarterbacks head drop, just for a second, during a game. That second was enough, it was like a virus that infected the entire team. I just dropped my controller and walked away from the xbox. Read more

Sherman was confused by the trade rumors, but has decided to run with it. Read more

Nah, he’s there to be the public face of the owners so that most of the public shits on him rather than the actual owners who are the truly awful people in all of this. And he’s done a masterful job at that and could certainly continue while the owners try to fuck the players again when the next CBA is up. Read more

There is no real need to go point by point though. Your attempting to show that Esports are not real entertainment and five seconds of research would show you that there are hundreds of events each year, attended by millions of people and watched online by millions more. You are wrong. Read more
