I read one paragraph and stopped. "Toughest" is the term used. As in, something that demands the most out of your body. That was never a debate. I was speaking of hitting a sphere with a cylind...
god you're an idiot. whatever. there is nothing left to argue about. the rankings were based on "difficulty." you didn't even read the entire thing. direct quote: "In Page 2's Ultimate Degree of...
And my argument is definitely proved. Under the heading Hand/Eye Coordination, it scored a 9.25. That is better than every single other sport. That is the argument I was proving, not agility or ...
uuuh...you. you're the idiot now. "Anyone knows hand/eye coordination is a harder skill than being strong or agile." this is so dumb. there is no possible way to judge which skill is harder (st...
Strength isn't a skill. Agility isn't a skill. It's inherited by keeping yourself in shape and pushing your body to the limit. Anyone who is set on doing that can accomplish those things. I work...
Alex keeps arguing the all-around difficulty, which I never argued. If ESPN did a survey on the most difficult "skill" in sports, hitting a baseball will be #1. What they did in the survey he linked us to was average all aspects into one score. I don't disagree with the survey, looks accurate.
But, apparently Alex has never seen Mariano Rivera saw bats in half with his cut fastball. The guy has something like a 0.05 ERA in the postseason. And the hits people got off him were usually bloopers and bouncers up the middle, nothing solid. He's also probably never seen Barry Zito's trademark 12-6 curveball. It starts out at 12 o'clock and ends at 6 o'clock. There are so many different kinds of pitches with movement and guys who have sneaky deliveries, that a hitter has an extremely difficult job out there. Whole teams usually have a team batting average of about .260 to .270. And that is good teams. A 27% success rate? Name any skill in sports where you can win with that kind of rate of success?
yeah, well you're stupid.
I know you are but what am I.
