OT: do these people look like athletes to you

I was joking about Fielder having a svelte physique...Of course he is a fatto…

Dude, I find baseball boring, but it actually takes more mental skill to play baseball than soccer, which I played both in HS.

Try grounding a ball coming at you at a 100 mph and throw a pin perfect pass across your body. Like I said, try hitting a 90+ mph fast/curve ball. Try throwing a ball 90+ mph and let's see how accurate of a pitcher you are, if you can have a high % of those pitches landing in the strike zone.

Soccer requires much more stamina, but as far as skill, baseball acquire a lot more. Because in soccer, you can dictate how the ball interacts with your feet. Unless your a pitcher, you have to guess and react on almost every ball coming your way and its going much faster than a soccer ball is traveling.

my dude, im not sayin baseball is easy. im sayin its boring as , the sport has been on a steroid tear for years, but worst of all its not entertaining. Watching messi or ronaldo, who ever u want dribble through people and drop one from 50 feet out is far more impressive imho.

Boring to watch, fun as when you play it tho

That is just a bad picture of him...Here is another photo... As one can see he is quite svelte...

Please film a video of you walking (not running, not dribbling, not dribbling between opposing players trying to get the ball off you) just walking all alone with the ball on your feet to let us all laugh at how awkward you will look.

And you film yourself attempting to hit a 90mph straight fastball ( you don't even have to make contact because you probably won't) to let us laugh at how much of a sissy boy you will look. man, just put on a glove and go shag some fly balls and see if you can manage that without looking like a total got.

I'd rather see s cure the sick than fat male negros and honkies...

Ya like running around kicking and chasing after a ball for 90 minutes is loads of fun. In soccer, much like baseball, rarely anything exciting happens.

Just curious, how many miles does the average soccer goalie run in an average game?

Is the goalie considered the baseball player of the soccer team?

Yeah, because hitting a 90mph pitch it's the equivalent to trying to walk with a ball on your feet while being all alone in your backyard.

And lol at flyballs, I've played baseball before. That it's pretty damn easy.

of a lot more than a baseball player, that's for sure.

Been playing soccer on an off my entire life. Controlling a soccer ball is like riding a bike son. Once you've got the muscle memory down it ain't no thang.

[Blake]

Than a center fielder, probably not.

[DAF86]

Than a center fielder, probably not.

Yeah, probably too. Keepers are on constant movement to try to block the angles of the goal depending where the ball is (no matter how far it is) and many times they have to cover long distances to try to clear a ball, the same kind of distances a center fielder has to cover when catching a flyball.

[DAF86]

For example

Go to the 1:40 mark.

Well, that's my point. To don't look like a complete tool trying to walk with a ball in your feet you need to have played the game for a long period time. There's just no way you can come out of nowhere and dribble a ball in a decent manner.

[Sean Cagney]

Most of those walruses would probably die after 15 mins of running around in soccer. Hitting is hard but so is swinging a golf club. Like HH said there is like 8 minutes of actual action in the average beisbol game...the rest is 4 hrs of chewing sunflower seeds, ball scratching and spitting tbh.

Bo Jackson and Ricky Henderson played baseball too TBH, they were in pretty good shape.

[Blake]

Lol no long distance running seen in that video.

At best, it's a wash between a goalie and an out fielder

[spurraider21]

For example

Go to the 1:40 mark.

Neuer is unusually active for a keeper though... part of what makes him the best. ing germans, from kahn to neuer (with lehmann in between)

Just like there is no way you can hit a 90 mph fast ball coming out of nowhere. What's your point?

that's why 9 out of 10 times you get the ball taken from you in soccer when you go one-on-one against multiple defenders. Most goals are scored off of set pieces or penalties.

Most soccer matches consist of players dribbling in the back and midfield when not too much pressure. You make it sound like for 90 minutes plus you are dribbling against extreme pressure. Please, it is obvious you have never played soccer at a JV level by comment you just made.

Difficulty

1. Hitting home run
2. Goal in Soccer
3. Goal in Hockey
4. Scoring Touchdown
5. Making 3 pointer

The ? Do you even know how big a soccer pitch is?

At best, it's a wash between a goalie and an out fielder

The bases are only 90 feet apart, so even if you hit three homers in a game, that's only 1,080 feet. Even if an outfielder did that and chased balls like crazy on defensive he probably wouldn't break half a mile.

How much does a football goalkeeper usually run in a 90 minute game?

On an average, 2 miles. But depending on the nature of the game, it can extend upto 3 miles, as seen by Pinto in the recent Atletico Madrid vs Barcelona champions league showdown.

That hitting 90mph fastball is a pro thing, walking with a ball in your feet isn't. It isn't really that hard to understand right?

Sorry to break it down for you but you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.

I'm actually a former semi-pro footballer. Thanks for asking.
