00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:14,040
Speaker 5: because it's not a sport.

125
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 1: Top golf a sport. I'm just saying sport k one

126
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,480
Speaker 1: a sport exactly, So why would they have if it's

127
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 1: not a sport?

128
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:27,920

Speaker 4: the Olympics if it's not sport?

130
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 1: Inclusion?

131
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 3: Inclusion, bro, the same reason there's breakdancing. So what is

132
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 3: that We're just we're just bridging the gap.

133
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 2: We also have not had football in the Olympics until

134
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,159
Speaker 2: there's an upcoming Olympics. So you know, if we're using

135
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 2: first and this is a well not come on, man,

136
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:53,240

00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 2: be one of the most controversial episodes that we have

138
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:59,600
Speaker 2: ever done. So let's get to one final argument for

139
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:01,120
Speaker 2: each of you, and then we're gonna throw it to

140
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,360
Speaker 2: the fans for a final decision.

141
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 4: So it's gaming a sport?

142
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,920

148
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:30,440
Speaker 1: Is that not?

149
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:30,920
