E-sports are a really big deal. Like, really big. MILLIONS of dollars are in the prize pools for these events, and the players dedicate themselves to hours of grueling work and stress in preparation. But many people question whether these are true SPORTS, pointing to the lesser physicality involved. Sure, e-sports and their players are incredibly competitive and skillful, but is it enough to deserve a space in high school and college athletic programs? Should educational institutions be supporting e-sports because of the numerous "intangibles" they offer? Watch the episode and find out!
