gaming Could an Esports event get NFL/NBA/MLB ratings?

Esports is rising in popularity. Do you think one day an Esports event could get the kind of ratings the major sports organizations do?

Most definitely I find normal sport boring anyway but Esport I think is somewhat entertaining

It really depends on the popularity of the game. Regular sports has the mainstream appeal and the atmosphere that pulls even non-fans in at times. Esports, I don't think it currently has that same aura to it. Then again I haven't really watched much at all so I probably wouldn't even know.

I can't really see that possibility for much aside from League of Legends or Overwatch.

Maybe, it's difficult for me to tell though.

Well...from what I have read about major sport's trends, it wouldn't take much in the not to far future.

Shame that ponies pay attention to video game sports and not the real thing
