The Most Impressive, Well-Rounded Athletes?

A couple of things about this video

  1. That chick has absolutely no fucking ass…like where did it go? to her love handles?
  2. Is that video real? Or was the deck stacked with more than one Queen of hearts?

I can’t believe that card video was real.

Actually I take that back.

Slight thread hijack - If that card trick was real, it points out an aspect of professional athletes that I, personally have always under-valued and am simply blown away by. He had to have GREAT vision to pick that card out in the first place. Like pro baseball players taking batting practice and working on seeing the threads of the ball, or the logo. I can’t even wrap my brain all the way around that.

I really doubt that video was real!

Tnationers obviously brah…

fuck supermodels play badmitton drive lambos

Yeah, I know he’s a football player and not a magician , but there are some things a magician does that look like skill but are just tricks too.

I mean like when they throw knives at a woman rotating on a board and they have a blindfold on. It looks like he’s simply got insane skills…but he’s not really throwing the knives, just pretending, and what happens is knives are spring loaded into the back of the wheel and pop out (handle-first of course) to look like he threw them.

So the idea of catching on e card out of 52? I highly muthafucking doubt it. I mean there’s a slight chance, but no way I’d bet any more than one beer on it.

I’m really not sure if the deck was stacked but, the reaction of the ‘no ass’ lady and watch the guy in the shorts during the slow motion replay. They look genuine. I can see the ace of spades before she tosses them up and other non-queen cards falling.


I’d rank female soccer players above ‘male’ ones.

this is a nfl de

That’s funny. Wouldn’t ‘bet more than one beer on it’ True…but, funny

I like bball, and I am a huge Texas Longhorn fan. I heard Kevin Durant coudn’t bench press 135# when he entered the nba

Well rounded-

Man, I could debate you on this all day. But, we can just agree to disagree if you want.[/quote]

You do realize db’s are just reviewers with bad hands, right? I’ll put it to you like this: there have been SEVERAL dudes that couldn’t cut it in basketball that went on to dominate other sports, but no one has ever done the reverse. You’re also the same guy that said Deion Sanders could hold his own against Jordan, and everyone told you how ridiculous you sounded, so there’s that.[/quote]

Ok, just to make a point. Allen Iverson was pretty dominant in bball…couldn’t cut it in football. LeBron James is pretty dominant in bball…couldn’t cut it in football. Just a couple for ya. I’m kinda kidding but, what I’m saying is just because a player changes his focus in sports doesn’t mean they couldn’t cut it. I do admit, that some TE’s have had some great success in football that came from basketball. Let me put it this way. Lebron is a great athlete and was a good reciever in hs. Why was he a good reciever in hs? The samethings that made him good in football, make him good in basketball.
I admitted that Deon wouldn’t have much success defending against Jordan in the paint posted up. I still believe that he could get some steals from him. Like Jordan could probably get some steals from Shaq when getting posted up. I don’t think that Jordan could cover Deon or keep up with him on the football field. Bball has some good athletes, but it isn’t all that really. Football is a much more complex game, and the skilled positions work on all of the things you listed daily. [/quote]

This is one of the dumber things written in the history of this site.

For some reason that has me cracking me up. LOL. I am probably just not wording me thoughts well. But, I would argue that ‘bball produces the most impressive and well-rounded athletes…hands down, no debate’ would give my other post a run for its money in the race for the dumbest thing ever written on this site.

agreed

I did well in basketball as long as my conditioning was up to par. Conditioning being equal, my height being greater than the opponents 'made a bigger difference than my strength being greater.

It’s common to see the traditional large PFs and centers in bball being replaced by lankier agile forwards. I’ve never been on a football team it seems like you can’t get by without being pretty strong, regardless of position.
