Danny Mills on gamers as athletes: 'Are you kidding?'
Are gamers athletes? It's a strong 'No' from former England footballer Danny Mills. He says, if you don't wear special footwear, it isn't a sport.
This is a response to a 5 live Sport special: Gaming - The Rise of the Cyber Athletes, in which OJ Borg explores the growth of electronic sports, the professional players who take part, and the debate on whether gaming could be considered as a true sport. This programme will air on Thursday 15 January at 8.30pm.
