awsome podcast it a very iffy topic with me. Phil is sooo cool glad that i heard him there with u girls!
Curling does suc........sorry if I offended ne1
Hmmmm, video games will never be even thought of as an olympic sport. I think that WCG is the olympics of video games as it is.
Curling. Boring. watching people try to melt ice with brooms is not my idea of a sport.
I will say that I don't think that gaming is physical enough to be considered as sport. On the other hand though, I do believe people who play games in tournaments and such can be considered athletes.
I enjoyed listening as usual. Hearing Jinx make up words and ideas is always entertaining.![]()

John "Fat" Wendal has been onto this years now, not as an olympic sport but as a sport full stop...
It should be a known sport as it takes a hell of a lot of practice and dedecation to become professional.
I hope oneday it will be a known sport, but, that day may never come so we just keep on wishing untill we can represent our countries in a Quake 4 tornament that will be screened on teh BBC![]()
about the fan base i think it could be formed for watching on tv, here in Korea where i live (i'm canadian) they have a channels on Korean cable that is just watching people play games. channel 45 in case anyones wondering :P
most often i see them playing starcraft (oh my god, koreans play starcraft? never!)
hahah anyways, ya it could be formed but i don't think it should be added
Also i think it would be a winter game nto a summer game
OMG soccer(football) is the greatest sport there is, no questions asked.

Video games in the Olympics? Hell. No. Not now, not ever. Organizations like MLG can barely control the out of control brats over there - how do you think they would look on the world's stage? Gamers would be a laughing stock.
*yes I know south Korea has two video game channels, but thats S.Korea and they're weird![]()
