ulmyxxDo they ever look at themselves and say holy shit i make a living off esports lol.
see id love to +frag this but id like esports to actually become a thing and its because of this that itll never become a thing
would you ever say "do they ever look at themselves and say holy shit i make a living off sports lol."? i doubt you would, and its because of this that esports are a joke in NA and aren't as big as they could be yet.

Yea? Making a living off normal sports is just as ridiculous in my eyes.

and yet a lot of people do and schools will give people scholarships to play sports at their schools and millions of people watch it on their tvs
That was painful.
JW looks so done with this shit like he wants to kill the cameraman or something.

I never said I couldn't figure out why? I said I find it ridiculous, and if you don't have a problem with "sports stars" getting paid completely absurd amounts of money you should maybe get your head checked as well.

You can't honestly be surprised or confused by the fact that people can make a living off of it. You are watching the strongest, fastest, most athletic people on the planet train and work out constantly to compete against one another in something that they practice for thousands upon thousands of hours for MANY years. A professional athlete plays at a level far, FAR beyond the average player. Nobody on this forum could even come remotely close to competing with LeBron James. You could practice basketball every day for the next 10 years and STILL not come even remotely close to LeBron. He would absolutely destroy any of us every single time. They don't pay athletes millions of dollars for no reason, they are a combination of genetics, talent, hard work, and practice and watching people who are that good at something is exciting.
With esports part of the reason it isn't this massively popular spectacle is that the skill gap is much smaller. GeT_RiGhT is definitely a better player than anyone on tftv, but it's not like he is some elite god who would crush any of us with ease at any time. If you played CS every single day and practiced for several years you could definitely get close to that skill level. There are pros with only a few thousand hours on CS. Becoming an elite video game player is possible for a lot of people if you just practice a lot, becoming a professional athlete is only possible for a tiny fraction of the population, and that tiny fraction still has to put INSANE amounts of work in to become successful at the highest possible level. People pay to watch those guys compete with one another because it's at such an elite level
I love to watch both though so I see what you mean for sure, but it definitely makes sense why sports are so popular

So what you're saying is these sports stars that generate absurd amounts of revenue shouldn't be making a lot of money? Where exactly should that money go?

when u do something that is very fucking difficult and (arguably) very fucking entertaining you should get a lot of money for it
very small supply and very high demand demand
not a hard concept

People pay to watch it because they enjoy it and want to see it done by people better than them. I don't think spectators look up how many hours a player has spent training before they watch. There are NFL players who were track athletes who converted, they haven't necessarily spent ten thousand hours doing it. If it was purely about being an elite level, so many people wouldn't watch lower division football, or international teams with no chance of winning or even qualifying for World Cups.

Wait what are you even saying. You say NFL and then World Cup. From my google search, there's no European football league called that.
Also lower div football like CFB, the players are still better than 95%+ of people.
