OT: ..I wonder what sport Ramona Shelburne used to play?

[DMC]

The is this ?

This has to be the most random, bull "study" I have ever seen. How the do you come up with those numbers?

So playing American football is harder than most sports no matter if you are a offensive lineman, a quarterback or a punter? Ok.

Hey look, Manu pulled his out, run and suck it! Wait, nm..he was pissing, he's done. Come back over here.

Wait..

So dumbaericans are actually arguing now Commercial ball is.mpre demanding than Rugby?

[unleashbaynes]

Well, every professional sportman has elite hand/foot-eye coordination for the sport they play. So it's irrelevant to talk about that, tbh.

son, that is the weakest thing that i have ever heard.

"Well....lets just assume that everyone has elite tiger woods/jack nicklaus/messi/pete rose/tom brady/randy moss/emmitt smith/barry bonds hand/eye coordination! Then clearly stamina is the most important thing!"

Mitch, what's your theory on why foreigners love "stamina" so much?

Mine is that the "athletes" who tend to have great stamina (like endurance runners) are typically short with bodies of little muscle mass. Foreigners are typically short, small, and have little muscle mass, so they can more identify with athletes who look like this:



than this

I'm not sure about stamina specifically, but I do know only a few countries appreciate the muscular physique. Gym culture is huge in USA, to a lesser extent the UK, Canada, Australia and Iceland.

If you have a big body in the US , benching 4 plates for reps, veins shooting out of everywhere - lots of women will be staring, guys will be aspiring to be like you.

You'll be seen as a freak or circus show in Germany, Argentina, Korea, etc because their ideal male body is strictly the lean muscular look, most men there who work out will try to just do light weights and run a lot. That means most of the men who get into sports will just fit in soccer, rugby, tennis, <LHW boxing & MMA. You'll be hard pressed to find a guy who could bench more than 225. Honestly, a lot of Europe seem to praise feminine guys, I see it in S. Korea too.

Handeye-coordination>>>>>>>stamina

If you don't have handeye coordination, it doesn't matter how great your stamina is. You won't even be able to: throw an accurate punch, throw (or kick) an accurate pass, dribble a ball (either in soccer or basketball), catch a ball, hit a ball. Stamina isn't going to help someone who can't even dribble a basketball.

[midnightpulp]

Wilt could dribble a basketball. Also had a nice finger roll.

Seems to be the case. Agreed.

Also seems to be that way in S. America. Brazil is probably the tranny capital of the world, so I understand why a twink like Neymar is worshiped.

Scientific fact, bro.

See the research I posted. It's inarguable.

And baseball with a women's sport included (softball) is more demanding than soccer.

No, don't be a dumb . I'm saying that if you are good enough to play a sport in a professional way it's obvious that you have pretty good hand/foot-eye cordination for that certain sport or else you can't make it professionally. This should be a pretty basic topic of agreement, tbh. Even the tiest of professional sportmen on a particular sport has an above natural hand/foot-eye coordination. This is a trait needed on pretty much any sport that requires skill.

Stamina, on the other hand, isn't required on every sport. And any average joe can have more stamina than the biggest stars of certain sports *coff* standaroundball *coff*.

You can't spin yourself out of this one. Just because they "already have it" doesn't mean "it doesn't count." They probably also "already have" great natural athleticism too if they're able to play a pro sport.

And your argument of why stamina is the most important trait was incredibly weak ("It's the only trait that crosses over into others. It you don't have stamina, you can't run as fast..."). You can say that about ANY athletic trait. "If you don't have strength, you won't be able to deliver a good punch, won't be able to tackle a player, won't be able to kick a ball hard, regardless of how good your stamina is." ALL the athletic traits crossover equally into each other.

You also defeated your own stamina argument with your last sentence. Stamina isn't of vital importance in every sport, thus it isn't the most important athletic trait. The average Joe can also have better stamina than the best quarterbacks, lineman, kickers, cricket players, golfers, hockey and soccer goalies, etc, etc. But handeye-coordination is of vital importance in every skill sport.

That said, I disagree that the average Joe (we're assuming a couch potato here. Average Joes are capable of running miles per day, as running is the most popular activity in the world) has better stamina than ANY pro athlete, even athletes in sports where there's a lot of "standing around." Yeah, the average Joe has better stamina than this guy

WHO CARES WHAT THE NUMBERS SAY!?!?!?!

One sport allows double handjobs in the shower. One doesn't.

Many Americans are brainwashed from a young age into worshipping football. A sport filled with fat guys, yet they claim they're the "best athletes" based on the few positions that entail athleticism. What's more, they claim it's the "ultimate team sport", when in reality it's a sport of specialists and in many cases the players probably don't even know half the team . . . but it's violent, so it makes them feel like "real" men to claim to be fans, even though many never had the balls to actually play it.
