Where the hell is SNR from?
I'll chessbox him. I've been wanting to knock his block off for several weeks now. |

I think I do remember that - I'm not sure i visited it, SNR. I think I only heard it discussed. Was this the poster he had a crush on, or am I totally off...?

I've been in one fight my entire life, but you could say that I "won" it. At least I think so. Of course, that was in 5th grade, and a few things have changed. But whatever. My chess skills will win the day. |

I also know that he ****ing loathed her. Was pretty funny to watch him aggressively ask questions at her. |

I think we can say with certainty that the smartest man to invent a sport was the man who came up with mud/KY wrestling.

I tend to lean basketball - with that said; there are chock full of variables and with most all sports you could fairly easily 'make the case.' I'd have to say there's not one true 'clear cut' leader, here.
That's my final opinion on it... |
I grew up playing Football, Baseball, Soccer, Basketball, and Golf.
Without a doubt, Golf is the most intellectual of them all. Before you even touch on the technical knowledge of the game, how to swing, aim, hit a certain shot, etc. You get into this mental boxing match with yourself, in a constant bout of when to "go for it" when to play it safe, and the self pressure you put on yourself when you're playing well, and when you aren't playing well. That being said, most, if not all of you will disagree with me on Golf because it is one of the most accessible sports that "anyone" can play, and ignore the fact that in order to equally argue the point for any sport, the sport must be played within the confines of competition, and in this case, a golf tournament to compare to a single game of baseball, basketball, or football. If I had to rank them, it would go like this. Golf Football Soccer Basketball Baseball With a fairly large gap between tournament Golf, and any level of competition in Football. IMO, though ,its impossible to compare team sports to individual sports. |
Why do people argue that soccer is complex?
I've played soccer my whole life. Always came really simple to me. |

IMO Soccer takes a larger degree of restraint and refinement than any team sport, and takes quite a bit of training and athleticism too. |

I think if you use the terms tactics & strategy & techniques, there almost has to be more tactics and strategy in football. The techniques involved in baseball might be a little harder / require to learn, so I do agree.. mostly...but blocking and tackling require learning proper technique also. Strategy-wise (big picture game planning) I think it could be close also....run game / solid defense/ ball control being an example of a strategy a team might employ in football..........'small ball' being thre eqivolent maybe in base ball...bunting, stealing, 1 run....and good pitching/D. There are probably more types of strategies in football, so yah....football wins by a little there too. Tactics it isnt even close.......football BLOWS away baseball...and most other sports by having an almost infinite number of offensive and defensive tactics. chess, bridge & go all have this, but are not sports....... do a google on 'chess tactics quotes' and you will see that the vast majority of chess masters agree that tactics is the number one element of chess...the heart, soul.... it is the same with football IMO Quote:

I played defense my entire life in soccer, and when I watch cornerbacks play wide receivers...
The entire secondary battle, between receivers and defensive backs? That's all soccer spacing. The assignments, the zones... that's all soccer, in terms of spacing and coverage strategies and players trying to get open. That's 100% soccer. Only difference is the ball. |
