OverUnder · 06-13-10, 11:26 AM

WeinketoWarrick · 06-13-10, 11:26 AM

Fishy if Obama or the media asked both the NFL and NBA to ask players to volunteer for 2014 USA squad and we spent the next 4 years,3 months out of each year preparing this team of NFL/NBA "stars" they would easily make it to the final 4 in Brazil in 2014

Domestic · 06-13-10, 11:35 AM

Fishhead, I don't think he would be able to get to ground level fast enough.

EmpireMaker · 06-13-10, 11:36 AM

They probably would, but they probably would leave the game in the first half with an injury. Skinned knee, bumped leg etc...

jayc88 · 06-13-10, 11:38 AM

fishhead just shut the fukk up
your threads are getting dumber every day ,
seems like losing in sportsbetting day in and day out finally got to you

tailmypicks · 06-13-10, 11:43 AM

too lean and tall to be a goalie

you just broke fishhead's stupidity meter with this doozy.

pure idiocy out of you fools.

podunk · 06-13-10, 12:17 PM

why are we talking about soccer?

yisman · 06-13-10, 02:51 PM

Very stupid thread.

If we're talking Celtics players, give me Rondo over Garnett in both basketball and soccer. Rondo, with his skillset, would seem to be an ideal goalie. He'd have to learn tactics and strategy, though.

Garnett? Hell no.

LOL, this statement is just absurd

xxxvince · 06-13-10, 04:13 PM

kg for president!

Fishhead · 06-13-10, 04:53 PM

Rondo, KG, Lebron, ..............

60 days......best goalie in world.

JohnGalt2341 · 06-13-10, 07:08 PM

Here's another idea, give this guy ZERO training and he'll be the best Hockey goalie of all time.

leeznon · 06-13-10, 07:22 PM

You guys are crazy. Soccer is a sport of skill not athleticism. Meaning you need years to master it.

Its like saying "Michael Jordan can be an amazing MLB player if he wanted."
MJ tried and FAILED because its also a sport based on skill, not athleticism.
He batted .202 for a minor league team.

OmgUrMom · 06-13-10, 07:26 PM

prob 5 or 10 years ago yes... he is still a great player but not quite as quick or atheletic

This is true......and I thought of that when starting this thread.

Still, I think he would be best in world.

I've never heard anyone say that great athletes like MJ, Kobe, Lebron etc. would be great baseball players if they wanted. That's retarded. Baseball isn't a sport based on great athleticism. Great athletes do play baseball, but so do fat guys and slow guys and out of shape guys.

exstatman · 06-13-10, 08:48 PM

The NBA players are certainly becoming better at diving, so maybe they could play world class soccer

BeatTheJerk · 06-13-10, 09:04 PM

That was a typo he clearly meant Kevin Durant.

I wish Tacomax would come back and again chase you away from here.

Exactly. Baseball and soccer are sports based on skill not athleticism. So saying KG could be a good soccer player is like saying MJ could be a good baseball player (which he tried).

I reckon you're a soccer fan in some 2nd or 3rd world country, am I right????.......

Reality, no less than 20 current NBA players would become the best goalie in the world within 90 days if they actually wanted to do such a crazy thing.

Easily one of the most ignorant, idiotic statements I've seen on SBR. And that's saying something.

And if we're talking about NBA stars that would make good soccer players, please see this video:

Minet, they would be a -200 favorite to win it all in 2014.............at least.

Overall, excellent post sir.

I thought your posts couldn't get more ignorant than they already were. I was wrong.

Congratulations on once again defying expectations.

It's so obvious why the rest of the world is so good...they don't have to compete in getting the best athletes with the NBA and NFL and while both EPL and La Liga have some deep pocket owners.If you own an American Franchise you effectively have a licensee to print money
Put Jerry Jones,David Stern or even Jeff Lurie in charge of USA soccer 2014 with free reign to draft athletes from all American sports and let them play between seasons for a few months for the next four years with huge non salary cap bonuses
Kobe
Garnett
Duane Wade
Lebron
Kevin Durant
Andre Johnson-Texans
Fitzgerald-Cardinals
Miles Austin-Dallas
just to name a few

We run over Italy,Germany,England on our way to play Brazil in the final
