Well, 120Hz is better, but not for the reason the salesman gave.

120Hz divides evenly into 60Hz(traditional NTSC frequency - that is how North American TV signals are broadcast (Europe and Japan use 50)), and 24Hz (the speed at which movies are filmed - 24 frames per second go through the projector).

It would be nice if there were more frames per second, but it doesn't come to your house that way so more 120Hz isn't a factor for sports.
