Sometimes I pay a visit to the Politics board, just to see how crazy the world can be sometimes.

Currently there is a debate going on with some people thinking NFL atheletes would dominate in soccer. The thread didn't start out that way, but that is the direction it's gone in.

It's interesting that people really think within a year or two that they could beat the best. Also their understanding of athleticism is low if some of them think that an elite soccer player isn't as athletic as an NFL player. A different type of athlete to be sure, but definitely just as athletic.

Not sure why there is such a silly competitiveness anyway. I love both sports.

I'm glad to see they got in a swipe at A&Ms women's basketball team, too.

London we miss your input over there how there are no problems in London and the utopia there is working..

Come back.

I live in Murrica but always love getting back to London when I can - it's always great there. One of the greatest cities in the world.

Can't be arsed to post on the politics board. It's just an echo chamber of right wing views and I've never seen anyone change their position after input from others. I'll have a peek there from time to time but would rather just leave them to it.

PS: Your post needs editing. It's a bit confusing.

I think the only position that an NFL or NBA stud has any hope of being really good at in a year or two is keeper.

I could definitely see some guys becoming serviceable MLS or Tier 2 Euro league starters on the back line, but of course, that's not even close to being the best of the best.

On the other hand... Michael Jordan's illustrious baseball career always stands out to me as a striking example about how best-in-world skill in one sport doesn't necessarily mean jack crap in another.

It's the politics board. They're crazy.


If they ever realized how similar they are to the flaming libtards they hate so much, their heads would explode.
