Don't know much about it, but my company Rotowire invested like 100K in building out a section for clients, but we sucked at it because we were GenX and didn't really get it. Good lesson though -- stick to what you know.

For a few years there it seemed to be the in thing for traditional sports media and orgs to get into e-sports but I don't know that any of them did well in it. Even the NBA's esports league didn't seem to go anywhere. So, I think it is a good point about sticking to what you know and are good at.

yeah, we hired a 22-YO kid to run it, but even he wasn't that into it in the end. It's a weird thing to watch people play video games, IMO
