I don't remember other studies labling all gamers as nerdy people who spend all their time playing games. They tend to isolate their study to people who spend an extreme amount of time playing games and come up with the conclusion that these types of nerdy people have a side effect of being socially challenged and so warns against becoming obsessed with video games. However, maybe the media and their unscientific idiot reporters put the spin that this applies to all gamers for some reason.
It looks like they don't mention smart ass gamers like you either, putting a rather positive spin on gamers in general.
