Baseball is the most shitty sport ever right up there with golf

No, but soccer and tennis are.

As Grape mentioned. Hitting a baseball is probably the hardest thing to do in sports. I’ve been to the Louisville Slugger museum 2X in my life and have worked with hundreds of baseball players from HS to the MLB. One of the attractions was watching a movie presentation on precisely this. Even harder when movement is added to the mix. IMO, baseball players are better athletes than football players.

never said it wasn't

my uncles know sports, they both were all state one in football one in basketball and one said this to me as a kid as we argued about athletic ability

i ran track and cross country and played basketball in high school and was a vey good runner, ran the half mile in under 2 minutes and 5 k in under 17 minutes but was a bench warmer on the basketball team so they very highly disappointed in me and one even said "if anyone is dull even to practice this shit ie. distance running, they can become good at it" :D :D :D

my vo2 max was 71 ml/kg tested at The Ohio State University

Brock lesnar is to me and he would rip Bo Jackson a new asshole in a fight

Brock Lesnar as a fighter is overrated as fuck. He's clunky, has a weak chin and weak gut. He's frightful because of his athletism as a wrestler, his strength, and his Neanderthal phenotype.

Outside of his wrestling I'm not impressed at all. I don't hate him and he's a physical phenom. But as a fighter,  a skilled fighter I don't respect him.

Ubereem whooped his ass easily and that was on no juice. A 205 lb Jon Jones would have destroyed him. Jon Jones at 250 would murder him in under 2 min.

he's a slow clumsy turd with ZERO quickness and agility Thomas Hearns would knock him the fuck out, same for Mr. Julian Jackson (my fav fighter of all times 8) 8) 8))

Julian Jackson's torque on his punches is incredible. Lb for for lb I'd imagine he's one of the hardest hitters ever.

Ubereem was juicy as hell when he fought Lesnar

Right, Bo Jackson might have been more talented physically but his career was cut short so we’ll never know.

But this is just unreal:

Sanders is the only man to play in both a Super Bowl and a World Series,[17] to hit an MLB home run and score an NFL touchdown in the same week, and to have both a reception and an interception in the Super Bowl.

Don’t you have pitchers in your family?

My Dad pitched, was scouted, and got hurt, but that was about it.

The real question everyone wants to know is how big was Bo’s bat?

Looking back, it seems as though Bo Jackson and Jose Canseco introduced steroids to MLB

In a random bar dust-up, dollars to doughnuts Brock would permanently mangle Jon Jones.

Testosterone Suspension is out of the body within 24-48 hours I believe.


So all they had to do was not take an injection within 2 days of the drug test.
