1. I feel like there should be an e-sports channel, just not on ESPN. That’s reserved for real sports

2. Whyyy pay for a tv package to wacth this when its broadcasted free on twitch

3. In Korea they have HUGE Starcraft viewership on TV

4. yes, bye

5. Fantastic video bro I agree counter strike would be huge if they gave it a try on television

6. driftor plays league???? 😀

7. TV is dying out its better off on the internet

8. If Poker and Chess can be considered a sport, then I think CS GO can be one, too.

9. Why do people even watch competitive gaming it's not very entertaining. Watching funny gameplay cometary is better than watching pros

10. hey why not give esports its own channel on tv

11. csgo n mobas like league should but not cod.

12. But the terrorists will win!

18. hey Drift, you think you can send me your sources/bibliography from this video? I'm kinda writing a tiny paper for college with a similair topic so I could use it^^

19. I think yes cause cod has made it to the X games

20. are u a little baby silver in csgo? soooo cute

21. i think that a new broadcast station would become an eSport channel before ESPN will

22. I never felt that it needs to be broadcasted on television because most gamers (or how I feel that most gamers) tend to like just being to hop on their phone their laptop because it's more convenient. But I think I'm wrong probably.

23. Twitch should just get its own network on Television.

24. They should just make an eSports channel on TV.

25. Good Try. Playing video games is not a sport.

26. Driftor sent me

27. Did you really just say the World Cup only gets 30 million views? Did you even search up facts? The World Cup got 715.2 million viewers at once you can't be this idiotic to say a VIDEO GAME got close viewership to an international sport
