You can try to say "well, exercise when they're not playing", but it's still unhealthy to sit that long. It's bad for your back, your tailbone, and your general health. Exercising doesn't erase that much sitting every single day. I love pro gaming but I hate how SC pro gamers play upwards of 12 or more hours a day. I'll probably get flamed for this but I think that kind of playing ruins competitive gaming. It furthers the stereotype that gaming is for nerds and makes it impossible for people with other things in their life to compete. 8 hours of sitting a day is unhealthy. Good thing that doesn't happen in America... oh wait, except for the millions of people who have 9-5 desk jobs. Honestly, all of us do a lot of sitting, whether it be in class or at work or on the internet in our leisure time. I will admit I find it annoying that pro gamers are able to play so much or can even stand playing so long for that matter. But it's the same with mastering anything. Professional musicians and professional atheletes often practice 8+ hours a day, but nobody calls them nerds. | ||

Heh, i never thought i would say this but i think rekrul might have had a positive influense on idra. Maybe its just his age, but he seems to have matured a lot during the last few years. How long are you planning to stay in korea apollo? I kindda thought it was more of a temporary thing but you have been there for a while now. He hates us too, just not as much. haha, good one  Like someone else stated already, the d.apollo was really obnoxious and pushy and just running over idra, in the start. got better towards the mid, but still he's a bit too hyper lol. Good interview tho overall, wouldn't mind more! Really? Apollo seems like a very friendly pleasant guy to me. Maybe a bit more experience with doing interviews could help, but i honestly dont understand this comment at all. | ||

My pet peeve though with interviews, is when the interviewer interrupts the interviewee and doesn't let him talk for very long or say everything he wants to say (e.g when IdrA was talking about the politics of SC2 I was really interested in what he had to say, but it was kinda cut off mid-way). Apart from that well done. Thanks. | ||

The picture was a visual aid to draw attention to childhood obesity, a problem that is more prevalent in the United States of America than anywhere else. I am using this as an example of how irresponsible parents are, and while much like McDonald's bad parenting is a universal problem, there is much evidence to suggest that American parents would not disallow their children to pursue a career in ESPORTS on the basis of responsibility. I dunno I thought it was pretty obvious | ||
