I kinda agree with this. Maybe if he left out the last sentence he wouldn't have gotten roasted.

Considering the comment I was replying to (+ the fact that I said "video games"), I'm talking about how people watch other people, I.e. YouTubers, play video games with added commentary.

My cousin watches guys like Pewdiepie (is that right?) play video games on YT. I just don't understand



No where am I relating this to actual sports.

I wasn't talking about actual sports!!

I'm SOLELY talking about video games. Like I specifically stated in my original comment.





Watching a baseball game on TV is completely different than watching someone in their parents' basement streaming themselves playing Minecraft w/ added commentary when said spectator can just go out and buy Minecraft and play it for themselves.

What's the difference if it's watched live on TV or streaming on Twitch or YouTube? Or if it's recorded in some kids basement.

Guess what, people watch NON professional sports videos on YouTube as well.


Do you watch live box breaks? Well why the hell do you? Just go buy a damn box and break it yourself

The difference is, the watchers have the ability and the opportunity to go out and buy the video game and play it. Obviously, they can't just go out and play the sport.

And with box breaks, the cards (teams/players) you bought are yours. You get the cards so you HAVE A REASON FOR WATCHING.

Unless you're watching tip/cheat/walkthrough videos, what's the point? Why would I want to watch *insert YouTuber* play Minecraft, when I can buy the game and have fun playing it myself?


The bolded is my primary point.

why can't they go out an play a sport? Who's stopping them?

I love watching baseball, I also love playing baseball.

I love watching video games, I also love playing video games.

And surprise surprise I can't always jump on my PS4 and play! Maybe I watch it while taking a dump, or while at work. Or maybe I'm just not in the mood to play but I want to watch someone else play for a while. Why is that so weird to you?

LCM here is a crazy saying I try to live by.

"To each their own."

I don't always need to understand why people do certain things, but as long as it makes them happy and they aren't hurting anyone then just don't worry about it.

Were we not talking about watching sports professionally this whole time?

So be it. In my eyes, if you have the opportunity, why waste it...

Why does it matter the level of sport? Anyone can go out and play sports, but we all still watch them on TV, or YouTube or in person.

People have made very fair comparisons to watching sports yet you didn't catch on or agree. i wouldn't call you an idiot but you seem to have your mind made up already and come off as argumentative.
