The awful action-to-ads ratio is a huge reason why I don't watch football. A game shouldn't be so tedious to watch and so spotty on the entertainment value. A football game is like an MMA fight- it's going to be really fun or really boring. Couple the non-stop advertising and usually awful commentary and it's a no-go most of the time for me.

Laziest athletes tho? Sprinters. Seriously, 10-20 seconds of work is all they can muster. Pretty lazy if you ask me.

The training it takes to be able to play football/run track is where the work comes in.

Every NFL player has spent years of working out to get to that level. Most today started as little kids in youth sports. An NFL rookie has been training for over 10 years already.

Sprinters work their ass off, they run multi 300's to build the most important aspect of sprinting which is speed endurance, that ability to maintain/sustain their topend/max velocity for a higher % of the race. that way they will decellerate at a slower pace. A sprinters work out is torturous as is all track athletes.

Most skilled position athletes in the NFL played some other sport coming up,TONS of track guys in football, basketballers, baseballers, guys who trained all year long for years.

There are no lazy pro athletes, the lazy athletes won't be playing at the pro level.

Lazy?

The training this event takes....rough. So once track is over here comes football training.....lazy?

Robert Woods (Rams WR) was the nations top 400m sprinter in HS.

There he takes second. That event hurts, and only a crazy man would even run it. To go from that training to football....lazy?

2/5

It'd be funny to see how many posters on this board could avoid permanent physical disability after even one of those lazy, five second NFL plays.

Imagine being a WR, though. You have to run sprints every play only to be a decoy most of the time.

Every position in football is like an entirely different experience. That's what make the sport interesting.

Most recordings last around 3 minutes, but it took years of playing to get to where you earned a recording contract.

Fighters train for months for a 15 minute fight.

An Olympic sprinter had to run rounds at his nations champs to make the team. At the Olympics he has to run more rounds to make that final. And if he's still in college he's ran league rounds, NCAA regionals, the NCAA, the Olympic trials, now the Olympics, and.....all that training.

Nobody just....10 -20...seconds.

People never sees behind the scenes and what it takes for them to get there, its easy to talk shit instead of doing it yourself.

LOL at people getting defensive over their athletes.

Sycophants desperately wanting dickriding to be a sport.

It's not a particularly tiring sport to play, with not much skillset demand, aside from QB. But you do worry about getting paralyzed every fuckin' play. Where you work hard is in the weight room and during practice, running plays 100 times to get execution down cold.
