Should pro gamers be considered athletes? - CNN.com

CNN.com has a very interesting article regarding pro gamers as athletes. Should pro gamers be considered athletes? - CNN.com

It is quite thought provoking, I'll just come clean and say that I am of the opinion that yes, gamers should absolutely be considered athletes. One of the interesting points made in the article is that many gamers have physical work out routines as part of their training.

And I would hypothesize that as we use more and more computers to play games, and when pro gamers are considered athletes we will see that the very best of the best have to exercise their physical bodies as well as exercise their minds to become pro gamers and maintain an edge.
