Futbol Soccer...?

[Araquém]

What great athlete wants to just kick a ball around, speaking of dumb there it is. Bo Jackson just kicking a ball around, hahahaha~~~~~

Big fast powerful athletes want to be in vs others like themselves, just kicking a ball around ain't that.

Any sport where after 90 minutes the score is 2-1............no thanks.

You really believe that if a sprinter have talent to be good at football he would still choose sprinting over football? Football a sport that pay in 3 months more than what sprinting pays in 10 years? Lol! You just trolling me, no way!

This Bo Jackson dude don't even have skill and coordination to be good at football anyways lol! The score is low in football because is hard and takes alot of skill to score a goal, unlike american football in which score a touchdown is way easier you can just run holding a ball into the end of the pitch even a ape can run holding something lol!

 

[Sir Elzio Dennick]

Imagine having to tackle a 225 pounder with speed, think about that.

Just kicking a ball around, really?

When we see soccer guys being compared to Bo Jackson, hahahahaha~~~~~

Jackson was a deathlete, twice winning the Alabama state champs, he could do it all. There has never been any soccer athlete remorely close to being on his level and that should be totally obvious.

Jackson 6-1 225 pounds of muscle with 10.3ish jets, there are no soccer like like him.

...and none of it means a thing on a soccer field, or a basketball court, or a hockey rink etc etc ie highly skilled sports.

He was a guy with good raw athleticism who played in a one country sport with a small talent pool and a relatively low skill level. Not remotely as impressive as being an elite soccer player or NBA guy. His ENTIRE SKILLSET was running as far as he could down field while holding a ball and avoiding being brought to ground for fucks sake, athletic but extremely one dimensional.

So soccer is actually far more exiting than watching big fast athletes banging into each other, right?

I already said its apples to oranges. Nobody is watching soccer to see "big fast athletes banging into each other", and the people that DO want that are going to be better served just watching rugby anyway. You could also watch hockey which has a great mix of both violence AND skill.

 

[Araquém]

I totally agree, nothing is natural about kicking a ball around, very instinctive running with a football, but......a little soccer player couldn't run with a football, catch a football, throw a football or tackle and block.

Any little guy can learn to kick a ball around.

Would be easier for a football player learn and execute the skillsets of american football than for NFL players learn and execute the skillsets of football. Passing, run and move with the ball, ball control, finishing, dribbling, heading and tackling skills. Those things that you do in football are cleary more difficult and technical than the things that you do in american football

Kicking a ball around is on a par with throwing, catching, evading wanna be tacklers, blocking, tackling, no it's not,

 

[Sir Elzio Dennick]

Considered by who? Only you americans

AUBURN, Alabama -- ESPN's Sport Science named former Auburn Heisman Trophy winner Bo Jackson the Greatest Athlete of All Time on Sunday, beating out former Cleveland Browns running back Jim Brown in the finals of a 16-athlete bracket chosen by fan vote.

So you really don't know who Jackson is do you?


Hard to even imagine anyone thinking some little soccer guy compares to Bo Jackson, hahahahaha~~~~

 

[Araquém]

Kicking a ball around is on a par with throwing, catching, evading wanna be tacklers, blocking, tackling, no it's not,

Trhow a ball with accuracy is easier than kick a ball with accuracy and catch a ball trhowed at your direction with the hand is easier than control a ball trhowed at your direction with the feet or chest to, the same goes for evading players holding a ball with the hand, evading players with a ball at your feet takes more skill

Takes no skill to block or run and grab someone and trhow in the floor, apes can do this

 

[TeenageMutantLesnarTurtle]

Jackson is consideed to be one of the greatest athletes we have ever seen.

He is completely unknown outside of America.

Takes no skill to block 300 pounders, takes no skill to outrun 4.4 cornerbacks after running over a 240 pounder.

Is this guy for real?

Takes no skil to throw a football into a tight window 40 yards down the field.

FINAL​

Bo Jackson v Jackie Robinson​

The Greatest Athlete of All Time title goes to Bo Jackson. This was based on the comparison of a range of sport science metrics. Even without the science, public vote had him well ahead - after 27,397 votes Jackson was well ahead with 79.5% of the votes.

The Unique ESPN Metric​

ESPN Sport Science determined the Greatest Athlete of All Time (GOAT) using a unique metric that factored in attributes such as strength, power, speed, finesse, quickness, reaction time, endurance, durability, an athlete's resume, clutch performances, dominance, versatility, measurements, and the overall difficulty of their sport. Each athlete will be scored in each category, using a unique ranking metric that allows them to compare an athlete's ability to his peers and also to athletes from other fields.

But, can he kick a soccer ball around, hahaha~~~~

 

[TeenageMutantLesnarTurtle]

So Bo Jackson isn't on par with most soccer players?

On par in what way?

In terms of raw size/speed/strength he was ahead of them.

In terms of being elite in a sport that has a large talent pool and a highly technical skillset? no.

Its like comparing Brock Lesnar to Gretzky. One guy is more of a "freak" in terms of raw size/strength/speed but the other excelled in something much more difficult and skilled.

FINAL​

Bo Jackson v Jackie Robinson​

Well shit what a coincidence, both finalists are Americans that most people in the other 95% of the world have never heard of, playing in American sports that most people in the other 95% of the world dont watch or play.

The US is a bubble.

Thats just shows how american football is a inferior sport compared to football. A super athletic 18 year old can start play american football at that age and still make to the NFL and be very good, someone who started to play football at 18 years old woulnd't be good enough to play in a 4th tier team in Brazil even if he is a super athletic guy

I can go with that, in terms of size, speed, strength, footballers, being skilled at kicking a ball around.....yep soccer.

That will work.

Fotballers would win a track meet, a basketball game, weight lifting,MMA.
