Is golf a sport tom watson wears depends and a 14 year old ?

[barry_smilez20]

Non sport

[Hootie]

I mean...

I've already won this argument considering the likes of Jimmy Graham's who never play football and then all of the sudden when they realize they have no future in basketball they say **** it...put on some pads and all of the sudden he's beasting the NFL.

[Hootie]

and before you say..."well if Jimmy Graham does it, why don't more college basketball players with talent do it??!?!?"

well because even the stud basketball players in division 1 that don't make the NBA can go to Europe and make 3 times more than NFL players make without the significant injury risk NFL players take on a year to year basis

the ignorance people have when it comes to the NFL cracks me up...

there is no reason why a guy who is 6'4"-6'6" with 45" verticals couldn't DESTROY the NFL.

Kobe and Michael in their primes could have been badass NFL receivers. Plain and simple.

Listen you ****ing moron. Randy Moss and Terrell Owens played football their whole lives and concentrated on it solely after high school. If they had decided to make basketball their sport at a young age, they definitely had the athleticism to play in the NBA.

Kobe and Michael are to thinned framed to survive in the NFL. Hell, Michael tried to play baseball and was an absolute failure at it, same with golf. So spare me this greatest athletes in the world shit. Basketball and football are two different sets of skills and success in one is no guarantee of success in the other.

Every player who plays basketball in Europe makes at least 1.2 million?

[Hootie]

Michael was an absolute failure at baseball?! Hahahahahaha.

He hadn't played baseball in 15 years and he went to AA and hit .230. That's ****ing god damn impressive.

and Randy Moss and Terrell Owens had the talent to play in the NBA? Really? Really? If that were the case THEY WOULD HAVE PLAYED IN THE NBA.

Too thinned frame?

DESEAN JACKSON PLAYS IN THE NFL.

The fact of the matter is...

if you're good enough to play in the NBA...YOU PLAY IN THE NBA.

FULLY GUARANTEED CONTRACTS
TONS OF MORE MONEY
LIVE LONGER

that's why the best of the best of the black athlete play in the NBA...and the 2nd tier play in the NFL

a guy like Michael Jordan in his prime would have absolutely crushed the NFL...how do you guard a quick guy that is 6'6" and can jump 40+ inches?

How?

How?

How?

RIDDLE ME THAT

[Sully]

Dumbest argument ever... Seriously.
By the "TO and Moss wanted to play in the NBA" logic, then every player who switched from WR to DB is a lesser athlete than every WR.
It's not a matter of being a lesser athlete. It's a matter of differing skill sets. Nate Robinson and Charlie Ward would've been terrible NFL players, but have decent NBA careers.

[Hootie]

Nate Robinson would have been terrible in the NFL? and why is that?

[Sully]

Bo Jackson... One of the best athletes ever.

... Would not have been a good NBAer. So all NBA players must be better athletes!

Jimmy Graham played four years of basketball at Miami and earned his degree. Then while working on his Masters he played one year of football where he made a staggering 23 catches. He was drafted on raw talent alone and his rookie year he had a whopping 31 catches. It wasn't until his third year of football that he exploded and he is built completely different than 99% of all NBA players.

Go back and look at tape of Tony Gonzalez playing basketball at California. You watch him and physically he looks different. He looks like a football player. Like I said, two different body types and skill sets.

[Hootie]

look

if you think Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant could not have absolutely beasted the NFL with the skillset they have...

you're just criminally stupid

I'm not even mentioning LeBron James because he'd literally be unguardable.

Jimmy Graham and Antonio Gates (and even Tony Gonzalez to a lesser extent) kind of prove this theory.

Yes. When you continue to trot out the very best athletes in one sport and compare them with average athletes, you're gonna come out ahead. Congratulations.

built completely different?

lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol

tell me how LeBron James would be a less talented NFL player than Jimmy Graham?

in his "third year of football" (2nd NFL year) he had one of the best TE seasons ever in the history of the NFL...

in his rookie year he had 2 touchdown catches in the playoffs

IT IS NOT HARD TO PLAY RUNNING BACK OR RECEIVER IN THE NFL

IT'S LITERALLY ALL ATHLETIC ABILITY...YOU EITHER HAVE IT OR YOU DON'T

LeBron James would have it. So would a prime MJ. Or a prime Kobe. Or probably at least 20 other NBA players in the game right now.

I'll make a list.

[Sully]

Detlef Schrempf would've dominated as a defensive end!!!

[Hootie]

how would you guard Josh Smith in the NFL?

[Hootie]

James Harden

6'5" 220

who's guarding him in the NFL?
