That is such an odd point to make. If I film some random people playing football it’s suddenly media? Settlers of Catan becomes something else entirely when I play it on a screen instead of on a table? You’re just not making any sense.

We are talking about the difference between a sport and art. Something developed by an artist for a player to experience as the player vs people engaging with a framework of rules for competition

Both are part of the larger group of pastimes. Both have, by necessity, rules. You are constructing artificial rules that make no sense.

I’m not constructing artificial rules???

I’m pointing out that watching sport is different than watching someone engage with art that is meant to be experienced first hand. It’s inherent to the medium.
