>The Paris Olympic bid committee will consider esports for inclusion as a medal event in the 2024 Olympic Games, according to Tony Estanguet, the committee’s co-president. Estanguet confirmed that talks have been scheduled with the International Olympic Committee and with esports representatives “to better understand what the process is and why it is such a success."
>Joining the talks will be several major video game developers including Activision-Blizzard, Riot, and Valve. Several prominent, but yet to be named, Twitch streamers and YouTube personalities will also help make the case that esports should be an Olympic event.
I finally made it guys, I will be the CSGO captain of my small shitcountry. 28y old virgin NEET who weighs 400lbs+ and I will be an olympic athlete. I am tearing up just thinking about how my life will turn around because of this. never thought I would see the day where I make my dad proud.

So many actual great sports that are not in the olympics currently and we going to add video games before them, sad.
Like players with one hand or what?
practically people could play with their feet but they would get btfo by the one handed guys.
>Exclude historical sports like greco-roman wrestling
>Add non-sport garbage
Fucking bullshit
>>77547574
>So many actual great sports

That's nice and all, but where's my olympic poetry?
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_competitions_at_the_1948_Summer_Olympics#Literature
>We will consider it
>We have considered it
>We have told them to fuck off
That shouldn't take long at all
How do you decide if a particular video game belongs in the summer or winter olympics?
lmao @ you bitter manchildren. top-level csgo is way more a sport than fucking horse dressage
>>77547693
>clicking a mouse
>sport
This world is going to the toilet. A chubby asian kid will now be considered an athlete and turks are germans.
Who ele is going to commit suicide by the late 40's?
>>77547536
>Esports makes it in before Chess

Marn had some leg disease. It looked like his legs were rotting off.
OK, so if they're considering adding e-sports, why not motorsports then? A boat and a car race, not asking much.
>>77548851
They already have sailing
Finally I can tell my familiy I'm training for the olympics when they laugh at me for playing vidya
Why not make an entire "Olympics-like" competition then?

>>77547536
Remember people, those are not called "Olympic sports", those are called "Olympic Games", anything that can be put in a competition format can be in the olympic games. even a pottery competition. 100 years ago, there was a painting competition at the olympic games
I support such things, if we could get rid of women at the olympics we'd have some disciplines
>>77548810

>>77559055
You're right. We should let competitive investment banking into the olympics because the revenue per CEO is so high. Good call dude you must be a super genius!! (Oh, you follow MMA. I guess you are retarded after all. Go watch your mens bikini wrestling matches).
