I'm pretty sure the true reason is that most Americans can't see their boys lose, which is why they have their own sports when everyone else plays something else. "World Series" Baseball for example. So if they'd accept E-Sports, their boys would lose at games again.

Maybe E-Sports are too fast paced for the general US audience? From what I've seen there are lots of breaks in the major sports popular in the US.
