athlete as defined by websters: a person who is trained or skilled in exercises, sports, or games requiring physical strength, agility, or stamina



i rest my case as to why online gamers are not athletes =)

[KGarcia]

Going by the proper definition of athlete, agility refers to dexterity, which is something that you would need in order to be an effective CS player. However I still don’t think people who play this game can be considered athletes. I was an all state athlete in baseball and the hard work that you have to put in is nowhere in comparison to sitting on a comp playing CS. If anything it makes you less of an athlete because the more you sit in front of your computer the less physically fit you will become. I do believe that playing CS in leagues and tournaments can be very competative like any major sport can be but to think that people would fill a stadium to watch some people play CS or any other type of PC game is absurd. Same can be said about video games being in the olympics.

If sitting in a chair and performing repetitive actions with your hands qualifies someone as an athlete; I must be an Olympic caliber masturbator.

an athlete is a person that is able to control their bodies in a specific way... getting tired in doing so isnt a requirement, ., , so, gaming IS a sport and should be featured in the Olimpics., i know i would watch.
