wait e-sports gets its own Olympics in a random new cycle that's not summer nor winter but a third other cycle? and they choose to announce it a week before the actual 2024 summer olympics?

i respect e-sports but do think this is a total money move by the IOC, no matter how nicely worded the press announcement is.

Kinda sick ngl
