Not a True Sport?

Some would say that professional Starcraft is not a true sport because it involves sitting in front of a computer (sometimes in front of thousands of screaming Koreans).  However, other than the obvious physical benefits of traditional sports, not much of a difference exists between cyber-sports and traditional sports.  Both have professional teams, intense competition, bitter rivalries, outrageous scandals, crazed fans, and demanding training routines.  At the end of the day, the dedication, training, and mental toughness that it takes to be a world champion in Starcraft is almost no different than what it takes to win a Super Bowl ring.  Anyone that considers cyber-sports to be inherently inferior to normal sports misunderstands what it means to be a “sport.”
