    Because the dudes playing Football are the peak of talent and skill for it, and I don’t like getting concussions. The ones playing Minecraft et. al. are largely random dipshits who are good at being entertaining, not skillful at the game itself. Also I don’t get concussions from playing Fortnite, just brainrot.

      Hmm, I wonder why someone would ever watch something entertaining… 🤦😂

      Being skillful at some random computer game doesn’t fill anyone’s pockets.

      Being entertaining, however, brings in ridiculous amounts of cash, if you’re “the peak of talent and skill for it”.

      I assume you derived these conclusions from yourself and applied them to the entire playerbases of Minecraft and Fortnite.

        Good thing I didn’t say the entire playerbase (more particularly, the subset who streams) when I wrote my comment then huh?

          That makes more sense. You are correct about a lot of those streamers, not necessarily all of them but a majority.

            I so agree. I mean I don’t watch streamers period because I don’t have patience for the ads, but my teen gets so excited every time he beats a streamer at any video game (or he beats a “college” team), I’m not going to piss on his campfire
