Or just a plain moron?
I stumbled across this headline browsing through the news:"Video game athletes battling it out in California"
I paused, scratched my head, and consulted a dictionary.
"A person who is trained trained or skilled in exercises, sports, or games that require physical strength, agility, or stamina" - Merriam Webster
"A person possessing the natural or acquired traits, such as strength, agility, and endurance, that are necessary for physical exercise or sports, especially those performed in competitive contexts." - Free Dictionary
So, what do you think? Is there any such thing as a "Video Game" Athlete? It does require, sometimes, some level of hand-eye coordination. But on the other hand, I've never seen anyone running the 440 with a bag of Doritos in one hand and a Mountain Dew in the other?
