Should video games be considered a sport? (SSR)

Video games should be considered a sport because there are big tournaments like other sports and there are thousands of fans and other competitors that you have to compete with like sports. Most people would say that all you do is sit there and use your hands and then consider it not a sport. Well video games require a lot of focus and concentration and that is working your brain to learn to do those skills. Video games also require a lot of practice like other sports, when a big tournament is coming up you practice your sport as much as you can but so do video gamers when there big tournament is coming up and there is money involved usually so they want to make sure that they do really good so they win and you don’t want to be that one person that makes your whole team lose and not get the money. Also, it not only exercises you physically, it exercise mentally as well. Most video games require you to think quickly and on your feet. It also requires you to be able to solve problems which are exercising your brain. When you play video games you have to move your fingers and wrist really fast and that would help you to type and write better because you fingers and wrist can move fast to type and write. Now that people are smarter with technology they have created games that make you get up and move around like all of the Just Dances and all of the yoga games where there is a controller that you have to hold so that the game will reregister what you are doing so you can go agents your friends and see who will win.  Sports are not only physical exercise but it is mental exercise as well and some people don’t think that sports are but If you think about it it’s both.
