Why watch other people play sports?

Because for sports you need actual skill and manly men. In video games you're just pressing buttons.

And eSports pros have no skill at what they do right?

Professional sports involve physical parameters that very few are born with, and even then STILL cant make it to the big leagues despite that. Pro gamers are skilled, but they are not exceptional in mind or body. I even find it kind of insulting that some people want to compare someone who pushes keys for untold hours a day to someone who is literally the strongest iteration of physicality humanity can offer.
