Can you imagine Bolt trying to hit this:
Bolt also doesn't need to develop any kind of skills. Track is a joke. One-dimensional event. Not even a sport.
Best Mexican "athlete" that country has produced over the past decade.

One looks like an actual athlete, the other looks like a 12 year old fan.
"But he lightly trots around a rectangle"
Sure, batting 4 or 5 times per game on a span of 4 hours takes more physical exertation than jogging, running, jumping, falling, stopping and going and getting hit for 90 minutes non-stop.Pitching takes more physical exertion than kicking. So does hitting, as PROVEN by the pounds of force generated (8K to a pathetic 1200lb for your soccer twinks). Baseball players exert themselves more on the basepads than your soccer twinks (proven by faster sprint speeds).
No, it's slap in the face to call this one of the world's greatest athletes
And put him on the same tier as an actual athlete like here:
And Stanton is even faster than that little twink.
But how much?A of a lot more often than the average fatball player does the things I mentioned. All while running a couple of miles over 90 minutes too. DMCball players OTOH are standing around scratching their jockstraps or sitting in the dugout chewing sunflower seeds when they aren't hitting, fielding, or running bases. Or in other words the majority of the time.

Stanton has a great body (no ). Doesn't mean he isn't playing a dull ass game where he's mostly stationary.
A lot much. Anyway, you aren't physically demanding yourself just when the ball is near you, tbh. Everyplayer has to be in constant movement no matter in what part of the pitch they are or how far from the ball they are.
Hitting a ball 500 feet once is more "athletic" than jogging for 90 minutes, something senior citizens do daily.Sure, batting 4 or 5 times per game on a span of 4 hours takes more physical exertation than jogging, running, jumping, falling, stopping and going and getting hit for 90 minutes non-stop.
And training up the athletic traits to do such is more demanding than training up the stamina to trot around and fall to grass like you've been shot from light contact.
So now running around is difficult? Exertion = difficulty? I guess crab boat workers are the best athletes in the world.
Lightly jogging? Jumping a few inches off the ground? (

They play once a week due to scheduling for the weekend. There's nothing in soccer that would prevent them from playing at least every other day. Basketball requires a similar level of fitness (shown by the respective aerobic demands in each sport) and normal sized humans CAN play basketball everyday. , our basketball practices between games EVERY DAY were more grueling than the game itself. The only reason NBA basketball isn't everyday is because tall people (6'5" and above) are much greater injury risk.
Who would that be? Your link is bad. Please tell me its not a pic of Adrian Gonzalez.Best Mexican "athlete" that country has produced over the past decade.

Track is a specialists sport, no doubt. I don't think it tries to disguise itself as anything else though. It's about speed, more than any other sport. Nothing wrong with that.Can you imagine Bolt trying to hit this:

160 games a year x however many teams. Starts in kindergarten, all throughout school into HS, then college and AAA. Scholarships are handed out by the truckloads for it. Even small colleges have baseball teams. Even churches have softball teams. Soccer is played by small children and be@ners. Let's be honest. You never say "hey, let's run down and watch the soccer game tonight, I got tickets". You couldn't name the soccer teams in this region. Friday Night Lights isn't about soccer. How many great soccer movies are there? I heard they are making a real soccer movie, Pitt is starring and trying to bring back a familiar role, but this time it's called "No Money Ball" and it's about a bunch of scantly clad, limp wristed 3rd worlders who don shopping bags for shirts and win the local kickball contest against the neighboring village, and the winner gets the 1st visit of the day to the watering hole before everyone else pisses in it.
Here's a list of some soccer players (not all of them, there are many more) that have died during matches or training because their bodies couldn't take the demands of the sport.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List..._while_playing
Now go find me how many baseball players died from the physical exertion they had to use while playing (so none of this bull of being hit in the head with the ball, tbh).
It doesn't get much more demanding that dying while practicing a sport, tbh.
Running is so difficult that 101 year olds can run more miles in 90 minutes than soccer players, and that running is the most popular activity in the world by far.So now running around is difficult? Exertion = difficulty? I guess crab boat workers are the best athletes in the world.
Look it at like this. Average walking speed is 5 mph. A soccer player will cover about 5-7 miles per match in 90 minutes with a 15 minute break in between. So a soccer player is only trotting around not much faster than walking speed, but DAF and FKLA try to spin it like they're constantly sprinting full bore for 90 minutes, constantly jumping, constantly twirling around.
NOTHING impressive about soccer's aerobic demands. It's not like they're running ultradistance marathons. The athletic trait they should play up is agility. Soccer players probably rule the roost there, maybe behind only NFL skill position players and point guards.
Baseball players are in better shape, they don't die during training, idiot.Here's a list of some soccer players (not all of them, there are many more) that have died during matches or training because their bodies couldn't take the demands of the sport.

"hey, we're in better shape, proof? We die during training"
Oh right, because the world doesn't exist outside of the USA.
Holy , this might be the most murican post ever tbh
Sure it does, there are other 1st world countries where people flee to come here, then there are 3rd world countries like yours, where we have to construct a wall to keep you playing povertyball in the desert.Oh right, because the world doesn't exist outside of the USA.
Yeah, I'm sure the reason why professional sportmen die while playing soccer and not baseball is because baseball players are in better shape. It is not because in soccer you have to run untill you feel like puking while baseball players sit on their asses 99% of the game.
How ing stupid do you have to be to proclaim that dying during training = better athletes? You know who else dies during training? The elderly, fat people with heart problems.Yeah, I'm sure the reason why professional sportmen die while playing soccer and not baseball is because baseball players are in better shape.

Rarely do you hear of a BUD/S candidate dying, so you think soccer training

Do you realize the overwhelming majority died from sudden heart failure, which in otherwise healthy people, is often a result of a genetic disease, not because soccer's 7 miles in 90 minutes (something a 101 did) is so incredibly demanding.

Soccer's overall injury rate is pretty average.
How stupid do you have to be to realize that the point of discussion isn't "dying while playing=better athlete" but rather "dying while playing=more demanding sport"? You have to be DMC stupid, or at least have DMC levels of goal posting.How ing stupid do you have to be to proclaim that dying during training = better athletes? You know who else dies during training? The elderly, fat people with heart problems.

Hey guys, we got a graph!!!
You conveniently forget the part about it being pretty much non-stop. Do something as simple as jumping jacks for a prolonged amount of time and see if suddenly it doesn't become a little harder.Lightly jogging? Jumping a few inches off the ground? (

I mean sure, if soccer players got to stand around scratching their jockstraps or sat on the benches for long periods like fatball players do then maybe you could use pounds of force as the basis of your argument. They don't though. They have to battle through fatigue like real athletes do. Do fatball players other than pitchers even experience fatigue?
Whatever you say son, but those folks wouldn't have died while playing baseball. Simple as that. Nice touch with the shift of focus from deaths to injuries though.
