hmm tricky one. Ofcourse physically soccer is a better thing to do. But as the thread creator said, gaming teaches you other things. Studies have been done and agree they teach kids things too. Like working in a team on a task. Or hand eye coordination. Forgot the rest. Anyway. St's argument that you are not gonna turn gaming into work isnt valid cause for 99.99% of the population turning soccer into a career isnt doable either. Yet we dont frown upon people who spend all their spare time playing sports.... It's maybe a bit like how people looked upon comics and then tvcartoons when they first came out.
