Chess should be in the Olympics.

I don't know... if dart is, why not?
Dude, have you seen darts? People are hype for that shit.
ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY

MMA should be an Olympic sport, it has origins in Pankration which actually was an Olympic sport. Of course in those days if you tapped out you were socially ostracised so many people literally died rather than give up and the only rules were no biting or eye gouging.

Pankration would be dope to see in olympics today.
One of the most impressive facts about pankration is that there weren’t weight divisions as is the norm for every modern combat sport; there were no time limits either, and a contest wouldn’t finish until one of the two opponents surrendered.

However, due to the many deaths of contestants taking place inside the arena, after a certain chronological point (estimated to be post 200 BC as well) the judges had the right to stop a contest if they thought that the life of one or both of the athletes was in danger. The referees were also armed with stout rods or switches to enforce the two rules of combat: no eye gouging or biting. The fight wouldn’t finish until one of the combatants was knocked out or accepted defeat, which the loser signaled by raising his index finger.

So Pancaketion was the original UFC before Dana White turned it into gay porn?

And for those that still care, if you ever did, Game Informer absolutely refers to esports gamers as athletes. I shit you not. They aren't even embarrassed by it.

Methinks it was gay porn from the start, seeing how the Ancient Olympics had everyone be naked AFAIK.

They did and it makes sense. It's not like people are going to take pictures. And I'd like to see you call some naked dude a faggot when fucking young boys was A-OK at the time and the fucker just killed some dude with his bare hands.

Pankration is wrestling, if wrestling were an actual martial art and not a sport/shitty theater production written by rednecks, for rednecks.

I did a little greco-roman, which is to pankration as a mcdojo is to that karate guy who would kill bulls by punching them in the face.

Apparently e-sports wants to introduce the national anthem in matches just to allow players to bend the knee.

They want losers to kneel in a game that requires you to sit.

Well, they could kneel in-game. Though I think most MOBAs don't support that, racist Trump propaganda that they are.

Tea-bagging would be neat.

Also... most teams aren't just from ONE nation in esports.
