April 27, 20179 yr I could tackle the worst RB I am bigger than most backs. I could score on the worst guard I can shoot 3s pretty good. I could defend the worst WR at least one time out of 10 lol. Depends where I am fishing. Depends who the UFC girl is. Delusional for $1000, Alex.
April 27, 20179 yr I'm sure @PurplePride92, @formerkywrestler, @Randy Parker and @Getslow don't appreciate this... I've laughed at that last one so hard
April 27, 20179 yr Venus has been clocked at 129 MPH...second fastest female serve ever. May not be her average but she can bring the heat. She's likely not been clocked that fast in several years, given her health issues, outside interests, and the effects of aging. I can play some tennis, but I'm sure I'd struggle at facing down her 100mph serve even if I knew exactly where it was going. sorry...that's her fastest. Her average first serve is in the 110-115 range. None of us are returning that either. Nope.
April 27, 20179 yr Venus has been clocked at 129 MPH...second fastest female serve ever. May not be her average but she can bring the heat. If she hits it right at us....it's a wrap. With her placement, you wouldn't want her to hit it right at you. Could be emasculating, literally.

April 27, 20179 yr COMEDY. Only thing anyone here has a chance at is getting one by Tebow. I thought about that one for a minute. I had great junk and control back in the day. Then yesterday, a stray softball drifted over into my area, and when I went to throw it back (about a 15-yard toss), it went embarrassingly way wide right. I blamed it on the rust crumbling off my once rubber-arm.
April 27, 20179 yr I love you but...she'd make you look SILLY! No doubt about it. I "used to be" pretty good. I'm not that guy anymore. But, the last time I played tennis, I still had some stuff, and even got a few of my bomber serves in. Not that those would be a problem for Venus or any other WTA player. My opponent was not that caliber. :lol2:
April 27, 20179 yr I played on the Thomas More College tennis team back in the early 80's. Back then, I would have had a shot returning a Venus serve. Now, at 56 and with bad knees...no way.
April 27, 20179 yr Big ups to @Jumper_Dad for not polluting his original post with silly things, like "can you compete in NASCAR?" Because I can totally do that. I can drive really, really fast in tight quarters. The beauty of pro athletes is they can do something none of us can. I'm not particularly impressed by the "athletic ability" of race car drivers when the most athletic thing they do is drive for a few hundred miles in hot temps. They don't even have to hold in a pee for that time anymore because of the high-tech suits, which also cool them off. I have a lot more respect for the guys who hack it out on the weekly dirt tracks since they actually work on their own cars (something I can't do). The glorification of NASCAR drivers has always escaped me.
April 27, 20179 yr Shocked making the cut in a PGA Tour even or something like that didn't make the list, according to most people who follow golf and don't play they all could do something that a tour pro hasn't pulled off on live TV before.
April 27, 20179 yr Author Shocked making the cut in a PGA Tour even or something like that didn't make the list, according to most people who follow golf and don't play they all could do something that a tour pro hasn't pulled off on live TV before. I though about throwing out a golf challenge, but most golfers aren't as delusional as othet former high school athletes. They know they have no business competing with a PGA pro.
April 27, 20179 yr COMEDY. Only thing anyone here has a chance at is getting one by Tebow. Maybe stopping an NHL shot by sheer luck, but otherwise I'm in agreement. No chance for any of the others.
April 27, 20179 yr Tackle a back in Oklahoma drill...yes Cover a WR in 10 attempts...10 years ago Block an NHL Shot...in full gear...yes I'd get lucky in the small net Return a serve...stick racket out and hope for the best Beat UFC Female champ...not a chance Score against the worst NBA Guard...not likely Beat Tebow in either listed...don't think so. Beat Elena Donne...nope
April 27, 20179 yr None, of them. I would have trouble bending over to pick up one of Venus' tennis balls. No chance of returning a serve.
